Dual citizenship

We do not accept any cold calls, etc.

➊I became an American citizen and got a passport.
❷ I returned to Japan because my Japanese passport expired. Entered Japan with a Japanese passport.
❸ I went to the passport center about 2 weeks later to try to renew my passport, but was told that I was not an American citizen ？ and that I could not get a Japanese passport without a certificate.
➍In the end, my Japanese passport expired and I went to get another passport but it was rejected
➎I had to go to the US two years later and tried to enter Japan with my US passport. I was turned away and told that I could not leave Japan unless I had proof that I had left the Japanese family register.


I am lost here now.
1 ） I want to go to the US anyway, so I will leave my Japanese citizenship, get a certificate, go to the US, and stay for 3 months on an American passport next time to take care of my parents. When my parents die or I want to live in Japan in my old age, I will return my Japanese family register.
However, I am worried because I heard that some people are not accepted because of the screening process

2 ） I will leave my American citizenship and live in Japan base. I will get a Japanese passport with proof of renunciation.　However, I am not sure if I can get a Japanese passport because I may be on the blacklist. If I leave the U.S. and give up my passport
and fail to get a Japanese passport, I will be stuck in Japan for the rest of my life.

3 ） Is there any other good idea? ・
