rowings requires a tall build with an extremely strong core.

top fencers are usually have a long build themselves.

most Japanese people have neither attributes that would make them competitive in those sports...

correct me if I am wrong.

I would say best bet for Japan is ping pong, swimming, curling, sync diving, ice skating, and other puss-ass sports...

not being mean, just realistic.

China has some of the best rowers in the world and they don't look especially tall. Certainly not by comparison with the rowers you see in the West. They started putting resources into the sport in 2001 which really bore fruit in 2008. Japan would be working against the clock even if the JOC was able to establish the right performance, conditioning and selection environment.
