When I lived in Japan a while ago, I knew that their birth rate was low. So I expected to find few pregnant women and few children. But walking around the small city I was in, they seemed to have a fairly normal amount of pregnant women and a normal amount of children.
I suspect that, outside of their big cities, it would be difficult to tell that Japan has a low birth rate unless you’re looking at the numbers to find that out specifically.
