The location setting on the profile can be wherever the user wants to be, even Antarctica.

Maybe they like Japanese culture...?

And?
Since anyone can set it to anything, and some games may have individuals more likely to be from somewhere, or playing certain types of games, this seems possible. Regardless of them actually living there or not, for the areas I visit and the accounts I look at, almost none are set to Japan. Your experience may reflect the areas you browse in the community.

If you went into the french section, you'd not likely see very many from or set to japan. Similar to the russian and german section.
