Yes but they have the benefit of having awesome European players as team mates to assist them. In the National team they do not.

All of their starting attackers are well proven footballers in Europe and they can help each other....

Okazaki - One of the best goalscorers in Bundesliga
Inui - Starter in Bundesliga
Honda - Starter in Milan
Kagawa - Best player in 2011/12 Bundesliga alongside Reus. (Luckily he is a bit out of form though)

Tbh if we had japan's squad, everyone would think anything less than winning the title was a failure.
