There is no treaty to support such an action and the general Japanese populace is pretty pacifistic. It would be in Japan's long term interest to intervene, but countries often make decisions contrary to those interests for various reasons. I wouldn't consider it to be assured.

The Japanese public is alarmed at recent developments. They know what the Chinese have in store for them. The Japanese know. This is not the Japan of 1975.

I recently posted an article on this subject:
