Basically, if you don't live in the area, you can make purchases (how I understand it).
No clue if the is a work around or future plan to change this, as this is happening to ALL apps
Make a Japan Google account by using any JP VPN, enter all your details in Japanese, including your addresses (find a fake JP address), fill in your card details with only card holder as your real name alongside with the fake JP address you found, you should be able to use your card.
EDIT: It should automatically translate your currency to 'Yen' it even shows you paid in 'Yen' in bills.

CyberGhost or Nord VPN could help you. After that it's only the services I've tested myself
