The Long-tailed Tit (Aegithalos caudatus) (also called Long-tailed Bushtit) is
listed in a checklist of Japan I created from the Cornell University worldwide
ranges data.
Both of your pictures are posted on this page:

, where it is called the Japanese Long-tailed Tit. hahahahaha

Looks clearly like long-tailed tit (Aegithalos caudatus). In Europe, the large
amount of white would classify it as the Northern European version (in contrast
to the darker British and Western European). As I don't have any Asian field
guides, I don't know how far East this species normally spreads, but there is a
significant number of bird species that is found all over Europe, Siberia, up
to Japan.
Hope this helps...
