You must be living in a different world. I know exactly zero people with a salary over 20M, other than maybe the CIO, and probably because he migrated from the US and kept whatever compensation they gave him there (plus the expat bonus).

My starting salary was 2.1M yen in Japan, and until my current position never breached 5.5M

You might be grossly underpaid depending on your current skillsets and geographic location. What kind of work are you doing now? also, how many years have you been working? If you are in Tokyo and you are Senior, you should be above ¥8M at least.

Happy to discuss more over chat or something similar. Let me know if you want to compare notes.
