In Japan salary for developer is much lower then in any of eastern europe / russia, since IT industry often viewed as not that important as manufacturing and etc. My friend just left Japan a couple years ago, his salary was about 200k yen. And its somewhere near 1.9k usd.
200k is certainly in the lower range. The average monthly salary for software developers in Tokyo is 250k - 350k yen.
However, the salary range for illustrators/2D & 3D artists is substantially higher, 290k - 580k. Hence why they outsourced to Lakysha Digital.
