The only one i know about myself is the intense pressure put on students. You ever watch an anime where a kid just sleeps through class? That is semi accepted because they are expected to have spent most of the night studying independently or at a cram school.
Or it used to be that way anyway, it's been a long time since i looked into the culture of Japan so that might have changed for the better or worse at some point.
