Agreed. Difference is that gentrification in USA & UK is closely related to issues of race & ethnicity. Perhaps not in Japan?

I'm certainly no expert, have viewed it as organic neighborhoods overrun by larger commercial interests. Maybe too simple.

You're right. In Japan it's commercial replacing residential. In USA it's (often) white residents replacing non white residents
