New to market trading myself, so I dont have any accumulated market knowledge to accurately guestimate what the effect of a whole country entering the game/market. Consequently, I turn to the vets to help me figure out what to get into early so as to take advantage.

Influx of highsec minerals/ores? Is now the time to get out? Low T1 modules demand increase? Time to stockpile small T1 ships/modules to save for a month/two from now?

This is likely to cause lttle to no effect.

Japanese are already playing EVE and all this event will do is increasing their cost of playing about 2 times if they pay for the subscription with money rather than PLEX.

Maybe little extra advertisement from the publisher will bring some new players but imho not too much and not for long.

Uh, no effect. Japanese can and have been playing, all that is changing is their method of connectivity and who they pay.

Something like this - watch out for them they will be leet in time!
