Summary
If you make 8,845,225,056 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 4,074,215,191 円. That means that your net pay will be 4,771,009,865 円 per year, or 397,584,155 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 46.1% and your marginal tax rate is 46.1%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
