As far as I know, most countries, include Japan, have no such animal.
I'm not sure exactly what services you are looking for, but you may wish
to consult with the 公証人 in your district. Part of their practice is
the drafting of wills, and the maintenance of the originals of same. I
suspect that your Japanese will would only be controlling over property
located within Japan, although I am rather unfamiliar with Japanese law
regarding such matters.
