but man, many Japaneses throwing moneys to "gacha" thing like it grows on trees! Silver for Japan will be great business, but there's restriction, so I can't help myself making biiiiiig conspiracy theory :p

From what I've seen, those packages are typically in free to play games or use in-game currency. I'm no expert in Japanese law, but there may be something that prohibits microtransactions in paid games. Even the UK has begun investigating the legality of rng loot boxes, paid or otherwise.

good thoughts! but Overwatch offering microtransaction to Japan with almost same system as Destiny 2. and sadly there's no prohibits like that in Japan. there's voluntary guidelines but its almost dead texts :( I researched Japanese law but I really can't find reasons they don't sell us Silver, so I wonder why.

You purchase loot boxes directly in overwatch, in Destiny you purchase in-game currency to then purchase loot boxes (and other goods in the Eververse store), so that could be the difference.
