I wonder what the situation is for foreign wives of Japanese nationals.
Something tells me that the Japanese parent will always have the advantage.

Simple rules of course.  Don't marry a 'nutter'.  Don't get obsessed with
your wife taking your family name or the fact that your children will also
have a different family name.  Register your child's birth in your home
country - there you can call him/her whatever you like (though for UKland
you'll need the mother's consent if the name is different). Oh yeah...and
don't marry a 'nutter'...
