These NEO funds are the closest thing we have to ARK funds in Japan.

Really? I'd like to explore that. Which NEO fund(s) and which ARK funds are you saying are close?
If I understand it correctly, ARKF actually started after a very similar fund which was a partnership between ARK and Nikko Asset Management. That fund was already established in 2017 while ARKF starts in 2019.

This is certainly true, but you cannot buy an ARK ETF products in Japan.

What can you buy? This Nikko monstrosity which costs 1.658 %.
