Depends on who will be in power in the USA. If the Democrats get in again, look for the Japan-US relationship to deteriorate because of protectionism , a muddled foreign policy and a reluctance to honor their commitments.
The question asked, 'over the next few years?' The answer, truly, is nothing. What's a few? What's change? You need change leadership to effect change - something for which I wrote Masters university course notes, fifteen years ago. Sadly, nothing's changed.

It's up to the Japanese citizens to figure out. They're the ones who need to change lest they continue the "shoganai" mentality.
