Is there any likelihood at all that business fares will drop below five digits?
Yes, but not by much, and it'll be hard to get those seats. Business Class always fills up first, long before Econony or First. People use their miles to upgrade, and almost no one buys First Class any more.
What can I eat if I don't like soy sauce and raw fish?
The Japanese are adventurous eaters. They like international cuisine. Any of the cities and major towns will have French and Italian restaurants at the very least. You can avoid sushi easily.
My favorite souvenirs from Japan have always been toys. If you're going to be in Tokyo, I recommend the four-storey toy shop Hakuhinkan in the Ginza. It's very easy to find, being on the main drag. The other thing I like to buy are cheap, comfortable cotton robes (easy to pack) and watercolors by local artists.
