Weird. Lots of purchasers in Japan. All have Japanese-looking names, but who knows if some of those are real.

Isn't Japan extremely socially conservative?

Japan is conservative in the sense that anyone that isn't Japanese can go get fucked. How many Japanese neo-nazis are also multilingual to understand the lyrics? This seems less like nazis in Japan and just people who found music they didn't hate.
