Does the answer change during the year?

Yes. Eastern Time and Japan Standard Time don't change their clocks on the same dates, so over the next 12 months:

  • October 14 to October 31: 4 PM EST = 5 AM JST the next day
  • November 1 to March 13: 4 PM EST = 6 AM JST the next day
  • March 14 to October 13: 4 PM EST = 5 AM JST the next day

Eastern Time switches between EST and EDT for daylight saving time; people often say EST all year.
