Actually, Japan is roughly half 50Hz and Half 60Hz.
A 50Hz device should work at its designed voltage on AC no problem...Matter of fact the same goes for 25Hz sets (I have a 25Hz Zenith radio console running fine on 60Hz to prove that). Just don't want to plug a 60Hz radio into a 50Hz outlet in some foreign country. Transformers are never happy when with a lower operating frequency then they are rated for.
