*Condoms

That used to be necessary- however foreign condoms in non-painful sizes are available at certain internationally minded chemists/pharmacies (the sort of places which sell Colgate toothpaste and Butler toothbrushes etc)

Gradually, my quarterly Red Cross parcel from the UK is getting smaller

I understand this concept is beginning to sprout in a way with all the Super-size-me frenzy going on at McDonald's and just food getting bigger and bigger like introducing 4-patty burguers in Japan.

I wouldn't be surprised if this concept starts with grocery stuff and such.

Amen to that! But I think we should limit this discussion to things that are actually feasible

My cat but he is a pushover and will get bullied by the Japanese cats. So not him.
My bookshelf? It looks nice.. I don't use anything on it any more after reading/playing/watching them a thousand times over.. It still looks nice though. Not this then.
My computer so I could look up porn and do the inevitable. I'll go with this one for now.

A well-insulated house, with central heating and air. Or even better, a passion for energy-efficient homes that seems to be woefully lacking in Japan.

I would bring my box.

Does it matter what's in the box?

Lots and LOTS of money. That way, I could buy all the necessary stuff once I am there.
