I can say that yes, things indeed are more expensive in Japan. I believe it's due to the way things are sold (if I remember correctly, it is because they have more middle men)
But no, Japanese is NOT hard as hell to learn. I'm not fluent, but I can do the basics (ie: introductions, asking where things are, buying things etc.) I learned all of this in high school, and a little bit of self teaching.
