Does the current Japanese emperor have real power?

Yes, with veto power.

Therefore, the Japanese emperor is stronger than the Queen of England.

After the defeat of modern Japan, parliamentary democracy was established under the auspices of the United States. However, in order to comply with Japanese public opinion, the emperor was allowed to remain as a symbolic head of state.

1946, the United States forced Emperor Hirohito to publish the "Declaration on Earth", acknowledging that the Emperor was no different from ordinary people and was just a national symbol popular with the people.

{The human declaration is only to break the deified superstition}

The main duties of modern Japanese emperors are to appoint prime ministers (cabinet ministers), approve laws, decrees and treaties, convene the National Assembly, approve the appointment and removal of ministers of state (all with veto power), and attend ceremonial foreign affairs activities and state ceremonies.
