The trajectory of the missile was probably identified so Japan knew it was not going to land on it's territory. So perhaps it's better to just let it fall into the ocean to avoid spending millions or billions of yen on activating missile defence and possible political backlash. It also does make North Korea appearing as an aggressor on the international stage too which works in favour of Japan and it's allies.

APPEARING as? North Korea IS the aggressor. They're a bunch of nuclear idiots who want everyone else dead just because they think they can do it.

North Korea has no chance in a nuclear exchange, so no.
