Japanese population 126288419
American population 303824646
The proportion of Japan's GDP in the world is 9.4%.
The proportion of the United States's GDP in the world is 18.3%.
Japanese land area 394000 km2
American land area 7700000 km2
American economy started declining from 1945 relatively.In 1945 the proportion of United States's GDP in the world is 52%-56%,but now it is 18.3%.
American market is being saturated and American infrastructure has already been perfect.Most of Americans have also already had most of daily goods.American infrastructure is oldfashioned and it is older than Asian infrastructure.So no so many jobs for low quality American workers.American technoloies are still being stolen by other countries.If other countries don't pay money for those,American economy are not able to recover.
New buildings are better than old buildings.People will use the most advanced techologies to build these buildings in a new place.That is the reason why Great Britain has fallen.Surrounding countries of the United States have industrialized,so people who live around America don't need American products.Poor countries surrounding India ocean and Middle Asia are new unsaturated markets,but they are too far for American companies and American workers.It is difficult for them to compete with Asian companies.
Japan,India and China are three big building sites.After they finish most of works,their economy will be better than the US and most of new market are very close to India and China.There are bigger requirement in Asia than in America,so a lot of American jobs and companies move to those places.
Africa,Middle Asia,Middle East,Latin America,Candian and Russian no man's lands,all Oceans,Antarctic Continent,Mars and Moon are the next emerging nations.If the countries are very poor and it is close to rich countries,it will become a stronger country in the future.It is the basic rule of market economy.Where has requirement except outsourcing,where will become the most prosperous place.
Companies are more lucky than countries because they can move from one country to another.I call the people who want to move to emerging nations to earn money Jews.They don't have the same bleed,but they have done the same things more than thousands of years.Cartes and other companies can be still alive for a long time after their motherlands have died.At least,I still can see one Dutch company in the United States that was born in two hundred years ago.Now it is named in English name,but it can't change its history.

If you look closely enough then you can see that Japan's economy is starting to curve. I think Japan also has massive inflationary problems. I'm no expert, but I'm just saying what I've seen/heard/read. Plus their is the disruption of the earthquake and flooding.
Edit: Look here and here Quote: |

Edit: I did get the terms confused.  | The fact that one dollar is worth a lot of yen is just the exchange rate. In itself, it doesn't mean anything. It's the fluctuation of the exchange rate that makes a difference.
Inflation is when a can of Coke today costs 50 yen but costs 100 yen tomorrow. Deflation is when it costs 25 yen tomorrow.

I thought a reason for this was because America helped Japan get back on it's feet, same with Germany, because of what happened after WW1.

Also not having to pay for a military is a major factor for the emerging economies of Japan and Germany after the war
