The gas price in Japan has become 150 yen per litter which is the historical record. Somebody even says that the price is possibly going up more and more. Japan is very weak in this situation because it has no natural resources including oil. All we have to do is just waiting for the price to come back lower. As I mainly use a small motorcycle instead of a car, the high oil price does not affect my wallet so much; I pay around 1,000 yen at the highest for gas every month. The only direct problem for me is that some of the gas stations in my neighborhood have closed down. It's difficult to find them and I have to take care not to run out of gas especially at Sunday night because most of the survived gas stations are closed.
