Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 192,404 円 to pay you 10,722,053 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.47 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.9% tax rate now rises to 44.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 128,664,636 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 55,256,296 円. That means that your net pay will be 73,408,340 円 per year, or 6,117,362 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 43.0% and your marginal tax rate is 46.1%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 円 in your salary will be taxed 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
