So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.8% tax rate now rises to 46.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.40000000000001% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,342,548,432 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 614,943,701 円. That means that your net pay will be 727,604,731 円 per year, or 60,633,728 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.8% 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.
