he'd better watch his back. japan doesn't fuck around with this stuff; and if he's not careful, he'll also be spending some time in the clink
japan is very, very serious about border controls. both times i've visited, they demanded the known address and duration of stay for anywhere me, my wife, and our girls were even potentially planning on staying. we were warned, explicitly, in both english and in japanese, that it is a crime to stay anywhere else- that they'd legally consider it an evasion of japanese border protection authorities if we deviated from our plan. we were given a number to call and email address to notify if we decided to stay at a different AirBNB, hotel, "friend's house," or anything else like that
i don't know how harshly they prosecute people who accidentally or otherwise stupidly forget to notify the proper authorities of changes to the accommodations for their visit, but- in effect- this idiot is challenging the system of law of another nation. this most likely falls in the broad category of foreign subversion of rule of law in japan- an old set of laws designed to keep chicomm psyops types from coming in and undermining japanese sovereignty/rule of law
so- anyway, the tl;dr is that this guy's in for a world of hurt if he doesn't cool his jets
They do not fuck around. You can EASILY spend 30 days in jail even if you did nothing. Japan is a wonderful place, full of amazing people and a beautiful culture, but they are distrustful of foreigners. Watch and be warned: https://youtu.be/r1ZLGqL1FMo
