Renewing Japanese Passport with Multiple Citizenships

Hi, I have a question about renewing my Japanese passport and have tried to find the answers I'm looking for here on Reddit but was unsuccessful so I'm making a new post about my situation.

I was born a Japanese and Canadian dual citizen, and since I last renewed my Japanese passport I've naturalized as an American citizen. My Japanese passport is expiring some time within a calendar year and I would like to renew it.

Is the process as simple as renewing it at the Consulate in the states? I know there's a chance that I'll have to make a declaration to abandon the other citizenship they know I have (Canadian) but what I am worried about is that now that I have voluntarily gained another citizenship (American) they may be skeptical how I am living in America (previously through a greencard). Or could it be easier to travel to Japan and renew it there? Any input is appreciated, thanks!
