The standard ones were like $35/night last I checked. Not exactly expensive. Housing (at least in 2017) was fairly cheap in Tokyo and the rest of Japan compared to most countries.
Monthly rent… No one should have to stay in these conditions for that long. By all means, allow it for those who want to, but when it becomes the only affordable means of housing I’ll be leaving, revolting, or both.
And last month this was just a meme…
They have these in Japan as hotels, and they are expensive. It works pretty nicely for that, but renting them as a permanent dwelling is insane…
It won’t be long before they are not allowed to quit their job or leave the area. Welcome to Neo-Digital-Feudalism. History rhymes.

They’re not for permanent living so it’s a moot point.

It won’t, just like hostels and dorms haven’t become the only affordable housing over the last few decades that they’ve existed for.
Monthly rent doesn’t mean it’s long term 😂
