I think the Japanese fans concerns were lyric based.
Homophobia is not that present here. Not to say it doesn't exist, but culturally there isn't as big a stigma against it.

Plus it was comically presented. That entire video is almost a parody lol. It's completely over the top.

Lyrically though it's quite... meh? Like, she was known for deep lyrics and the lyrics were not deep at all lol.

Personally if you're ok with a girl displaying her naked body for an album cover, and young woman depicting prostitutes and a flood of "milk", I think two men staring at each other in a bathroom shouldn't be that big a deal lol.

And the tour performance of it was, for me, one of the highlights. It really got the crowd jumping~
