It's probably not as simple as people think it is, especially when you MUST understand that not only are Japanese banks archaic as hell, but they're also rather shady.
You know how you can go to an ATM anywhere in the U.S. and pull out money with almost any bank's card so long as you pay a small fee? Yeah you can't do that in Japan.
Remember that SE isn't maliciously trying to screw you over. If they could "easily" do PayPal, they would've done it already. They want your money.
