An American Will and Japan’s Inheritance Laws

I am a 74 year old, expat American and my wife is Japanese. I live in/retired to Japan. I am here on a spouse visa. We do not have children. I have a U.S. will, which I had drawn up before moving to Japan.
1) Is it correct "the U.S.A. Will" will supersede any and all "Japanese Inheritance Laws".
2) Do I need to have the "U.S. Will" translated in to a Japanese verison/copy ? If so does this copy need to be notarized? A notarized translation.
3) What else should I research- Any suggestions appreciated.
Thank you.
