Japan is by some standards a small nation, about the same size as the state of California. But it is actually rather very diverse in its climate. (Much like California) because of differences in elevation you can have to different climates in the same prefecture. The town I lived in was much cooler the Hiroshima which was only about 90km away. Because it was at the highest point in Hiroshima Prefecture.
It can snow much later in the year in the Japanese Alps then one might expect. And most of Japan below Tokyo IS Tropical. It will get very hot and very wet in the... well wet season. And like wise if you live in Hokkaido it is very cool and can be very cold in winter.
The wild life is a bit of a issue for some.
The insects are really then only thing that I think might be dangerous. Of coarse giant wasps and Centipedes should be watched out for, there are also some spiders that are worth noting. Over all the best bet is to do some research on the area you are going to.
