Souls are imaginary creations, so obviously each culture's soul is dependent on what their cultural mythology thinks souls are.

Western cultures imagine souls to be very strictly defined and delineated. Human souls are completely different from animal souls, inanimate objects don't have souls, and souls are indivisible discrete units.

Eastern cultures imagine souls to be more malleable. Everything has a soul, souls can reincarnate between different creatures and objects, and they can even be split and merged between multiple entities.

So when an American says that the Japanese have no soul, he's only half-right. Souls are nothing more than social habit, so of course a Japanese won't have what the American considers to be a "soul". Similarly, by the Japanese definition the American won't have a soul either.
