Japan Plate
What type of plate boundary is Japan on?
I think it's a convergent boundary, but would that make it a continental-oceanic or oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary?
You are right. It is a convergent boundary however it is an oceanic-oceanic boundary, which forms what is called an island-arc system. One oceanic plate dives below the other and the resulting volcanism creates an island, hence the name. The basin on the ocean side of the arc is called the fore-arc basin and the basin behind the island and offshore of the continent is the back-arc basin.
