How will this affect the value of the yen? I'm sorry if it sounds like a stupid question but I've tried to find an answer online to no avail.
Good news

What does it mean for yen thanks ?
Yen to the bin. No way investors are favoring YEN over the Dollar. The differentials is too wide.
All investors are going to gold and USD now. BOJ does not care

This mean yen to be cheaper than toilet paper
Yen is still considered as safe heaven currency. The only reason for this huge weakening is the bank of Japan doesn't want to raise interest rates. If/when BOJ decides to follow higher rates trend ,we will see sharp demand for Yen again which will follow by huge strengthening of it. For now there is NO inflation with Yen so this is all scened to produce inflation. With higher inflation there will be reason to rise rates which will lead Investors to turn on to Yen

    Japan Cabinet Secretary: Closely Watching FX Moves with Sense Of Urgency

    From @Capital_Hungry|Apr 19, 2022|8 comments

    tweet at 10:13pm: JAPAN DEPUTY CHIEF CABINET SECRETARY: CLOSELY WATCHING FX MOVES WITH SENSE OF URGENCY #News #Forex #JAPANJapan deputy chief cabinet secretary says FX stability is important Japan deputy chief cabinet secretary: • No comment on FX levels. • FX stability is important. • Closely watching FX moves with sense of urgency. • Excess FX volatility, disorderly FX movements could have an adverse effect on the economy and financial stability. If this is all new to you, these sorts of comments are aimed at slowing down the drop in the yen. It has slumped dramatically in past weeks and months. Japanese officials want to slow its fall.
