How they measure is different from how U.S. measures.
U.S. 87 is similar to JP 91
U.S. 89 is similar to JP 95
U.S. 91-93 is similar to JP 98-100
So, if you look at their numbers and our numbers, it looks like their gas have higher octanes, but they really aren't.

I've only ever seen E5, might have ben E10? once and that was in Tasmania and i'm sure it was 91octane[RON]
I've never heard crickets mentioned in Japan and I don't think they use ethanol much there either.

But the real question is how much ethanol percentage?
