What exactly is japanese-y about it? The way they handle certain interface sounds, inventory navigation and the scale and to some extent the style of the bosses, which is one of the things japanese games do very right in my eyes.
The weapons and armors themselves are very western, I daresay even European, more so than most western games even. I would even say the vast majority of monsters is "western".
