I've been thinking of naming the Japanese courthouse "Shiro," the word for castle. Many towns in the feudal era were centered around castles as administrative centers (much like feudal towns in Europe). Since it's only available to occupied cities I don't plan on including a defensive bonus, but will instead do something simple like reduced cost or maintenance.
So from the lack of response I guess my suggestion above isn't something you will consider (which I get, since the combat AI gets hosed so often as it is now from lack of sight that it may be OP and it may not even be possible). But to me a reduced cost or maintenance courthouse is kind of bland. An alternate unique courthouse idea for the Japanese:
Social Policy costs are not increased by the usual 30% when a Shiro (Courthouse replacement) is built in an annexed city.
Again, I don't know if this is possible, but I think a UB ought to have something more interesting going for it than reduced cost/maintenance.
