As I recall when I lived near Shizuoka, Osaka had a reputation for going their own way. The main difference I remember is getting off the train and everyone walked to the other side than typically done elsewhere. I would have liked more time in Osaka, it seemed more vibrant and open in some ways.
Ten years in Osaka here. I don’t recall this ever being an issue.

People are generally more open in Osaka and the food is excellent, if you go just a few streets off the key tourist traps..

I was just in Japan for about 4 months, mostly Tokyo. Id say somewhere around a quarter of public men’s rooms I used didn’t have soap dispensers. Taiwan was worse though - most baffling was the lack of soap on my plane to and from Taipei
