Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 306,564 円 to pay you 29,748,821 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.60 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45% tax rate now rises to 45.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 356,985,852 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 160,528,736 円. That means that your net pay will be 196,457,116 円 per year, or 16,371,426 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.0% 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.
