Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 141,833 円 to pay you 2,293,512 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.01 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.9% tax rate now rises to 37.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 27,522,144 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 9,341,899 円. That means that your net pay will be 18,180,245 円 per year, or 1,515,020 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 33.9% and your marginal tax rate is 41.0%. 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 41.02 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 58.98 円.
