The US military stationed in Japan seem to have ongoing issues with raping Japanese female, same as young as 12 and 6.

Okinawa seems to be the capital of US serviceman rape.

It is not a question of if Japan will re-militarize fully and openly but when.
Eventually the Americans army bases will close ending the American occupation.
Of course, the Okinawa US base is not really an occupation anymore but the US Army has been on Japanese soil since WWIl and is a demoralizing reminder of Japan’s defeat affecting the Japanese psyche. Trump has advocated pulling American troops out of Japan and S. Korea before as a cost saving measure , but the more aggressive military activities of China, particularly menacing Taiwan has given some pause.
Japan is already a major arms manufacturer for other countries.

I'll tell you when. Never.
I believe it written into Japan's constitution that America controls their military/defence program division.

It is not explicitly written in the Japanese Pacifist Constitution as Japan is now an autonomous sovereign nation which agrees to renounce aggression.
However, what you said is implied, unwritten and followed although Japan is now a major arms dealer.
Trump threatens to close American foreign army bases as a cost savings measure and as diplomatic leverage.

Hegseth will fix this. He embarrassed the Democratic senators yesterday. Party of common sense means get rid of 3rd gender (his words) in military as well as this sexual assault issue at their Okinawa base.
