I would recommend not trying to outperform a global index. Bonds are also not necessarily a "safe and neutral" choice for yen-based investors due to currency risk.

I would suggest a portfolio heavily biased toward developing country stocks.

Developing country = emerging country, correct?

I am fairly new to investment. One of the reasons, for my allocation choices of DC was also psychological. What I mean is I was hesitant to hold similar/same asset in NISA amd DC. (and when trying to not doing this, I may have exposed myself to higher risk)

Thank you for pointing it out.
I wanted something closer to all country, at first. But then around the time I did this allocation, I got into a rabbit hole of how the coming decades will see the world economy moving towards South East Asia with its booming young economy and skimmed through them. And I was like "hmmm.. I won't need (have access) to this money until 30 years from now and my NISA is filled with all country, so why not?"
