Please tell me about renewal of Japanese passport.

My son turned 21
and his Japanese passport will expire this July
He was born in Hawaii and has dual citizenship with Japan and the U.S.
Can he renew his Japanese passport after he turns 21
at the consulate anymore? ？
When I ask people around me, some say they can do it ？ and others say they can't ？
what is the actual situation ？
please tell me if you know anyone who can help me out.

Last year, when my 24-year-old son, who has dual citizenship, went to renounce his Japanese citizenship, the consulate advised him to keep his Japanese citizenship because he could renew his passport after the age of 21.
They cannot force you to renounce your nationality, so if you apply for it, they can make you one.

I was able to renew without any problems.
The receptionist told me
that I have to choose my nationality at the age of 21, but since I haven't decided yet, I will go through the renewal procedure, but if I receive a letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I will give up my Japanese nationality at that time.
Has anyone who has renewed his/her citizenship been told the same thing ？?

My son applied for a passport the year before last and was told the same thing.
but it has been 2 years and no letter has been received.

My acquaintance is in his 40s,
he is Japanese born in Hawaii but he still holds dual citizenship.
He has never been to Japan, so he renews it at the Honolulu Consulate.
However, he said he is trying not to cut it off because if he does, it is very difficult to get a certified copy because his relatives are not in Japan. He said that the letter he was told when he applied for his son's application, he has never been told by the consulate about renouncing his nationality.

Sorry for the sidebar. Has anyone who has taken US citizenship from marriage been able to renew their Japanese passport at the consulate in Honolulu ？?
