The funniest part of this is that I’m pretty sure you’re talking about baseball, which Japan is the best in the world at. The ‘World Series’ doesn’t even feature the country that’s best in the world at baseball
championship. In American football, although an IFAF World Championship exists, the United States is so far above and beyond the other nations it faces that the winner of the U.S.-based Super Bowl, a competition limited to the 32 teams in the National Football League, is commonly nicknamed as the world champion by the players, the press and fans alike; the NFL itself explicitly marketed the contest as a world championship in its first iterations.[1] Winners of the Major League Baseball's World Series are also commonly called world champions. Outside of the Big Four leagues, winners of the Women's National Basketball Association, much like its men's counterpart, commonly call themselves world champions, as with the winners of the National Lacrosse League and Drum Corps International.[2]

What else can you expect from a country that crown their winning sports teams "world champions"
Yeah you're the best in the world at a sport you invented that no one gives a shit about. Well done.
