Japanese agreements create obligations that persist through time and circumstance. When you make a commitment, you are accepting an obligation that will continue—not a provisional arrangement that can be easily exited when preferences change. This shapes both how agreements are made and how they are maintained. Entry should be careful because commitments are serious.
Maintenance should be persistent because fulfillment is expected. Difficulty does not justify abandonment. Changing preferences do not justify exit. Your Japanese partners expect that agreements will be honored regardless of changing circumstances, and this expectation enables the trust and reliability on which long-term relationships depend.
