Japan is insane on the paperwork front. The amount of stuff my wife has to deal with (because my Japanese is frankly terrible) for basic processes is mind numbing. Things like having to write out your address and contact info on five different forms for one appointment, visiting multiple offices to submit paperwork in for the same process, etc.. Moving apartments (heaven forbid it is to a different city government) involves weeks of straight up administrative work from one person in the household.

Worse than Germany?

considering that an appointment for changing your registered address in Germany can be booked online and than you only have to go in person so they can put the new address on your ID card, show them your "Wohnungsgeberbestätigung" (letter from the landlord that you actually live there when you rent, not needed when you own your house) and sign once that you actually moved there I would say it sounds worse than in Germany.
