I know that the Nike Air Force 1 Low is the most popular shoe worldwide. I am wondering what shoe is most popular in Japan or most worn in Japan today. Also would like to know what shoes are most depicted in anime.

Really depends on the age demographic. There are a lot of airforce 1 as well as Nike Blazers and Jordan 1s. I feel like I see tons of vans as well as Chuck Taylors.
For older people, you’ll see a lot of New Balance as well as Skechers. I feel like there is a mix of sneakers as much as in the US. There are more black dress shoes, DR Martens, Blundstones, and such than in the US. People dress up more here, especially in Urban environments.
I was disappointed not to find people wearing this https://www.timeout.com/tokyo/news/these-limited-edition-baby-star-ramen-sneakers-by-reebok-are-only-sold-in-japan-082222
Nike Air Force 1 and various Jordan models.
