As someone of a similar height (6'1") who has been to japan, I can echo the sentiment that you will definitely be taller than most people, but you won't feel like a giant or anything. That being said, I also know plenty of people in my home who are in the 5'3" to 5'10" range. If you live an area that's taller than average, you might notice the difference a bit more. That being said, the only people I saw who were really as tall as me were some pro athletes.
