By tax office standards, the Japanese tax website (which basically guides you through filling out the PDF forms if you don't have e-tax credentials) is quite reasonable. Once you've done it once it's just typing in this year's numbers and next next next.

It could be better, of course, but TBH I can take 30 minutes of clicking next and filling in a few numbers and cross checking against last year's return every year. I moved last year and it just asked me for my address once, and it then prompted me to propagate that everywhere.

Note that this is as a freelancer. If you have a single employer like most people, taxes are calculated and deducted for you and you don't have to file at all unless you have other income or special deductions.

Replying to @marcan42
The "other income" is not unlikely, already if your employer gives you stock, that applies. I have good experiences with lining up at Japanese tax offices and declare things directly there.

I did it in person a few times, then learned how to do it and showed up with the forms already filled one year to check, and every year after that I've just been filing by mail.
