There have been notable Japanese people who argued that the Japanese writing system should adopt Latin alphabets since ~150 years ago.

I'm personally fine with both romaji and kana (learning kana is not a big cognitive burden anyways).

I'm even fine with kanji (or Latin or anything) if people learn it voluntarily. What's not ok is kids being forced to learn them in school.
