Your facts are very wrong and misleading.
1) You are only fined for not switching on silent mode/switching
off your phone when you are in the priority area. In other areas of
the train car, you are allow to use them like in Singapore.
However, Japanese are more conservative and they speak much softer
on the phone.
2) Separate cars for men and women are only initiated during
certain times, specifically rush hours.
3) You won't get kicked out of the train by not giving up their
seats. You will just be shamed. However, Japanese and Koreans are
much more courteous and gracious. Thus, this has become their
norm.
4) If there was a ban on photography/videography. Would you
explain this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDZH47ruv4M
