Real tax rate
42.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.2% tax rate now rises to 42.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 83,428,800 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 34,399,335 円. That means that your net pay will be 49,029,465 円 per year, or 4,085,789 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 41.2% 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.
