C2 requirements :- Comprehend academic and specialized texts without difficulty Write complex reports, articles, or creative texts Comprehends complex, abstract texts across all subjects Adjust language use to social and professional contexts How many native speakers of English can say they can do all of that?
There are a lot of people out there that have got stuck at B2 (or even lower!!) in their native tongue - happens all the time in precarious family surroundings. It has to be added that a C2-level not only applies to being fluent in an academic environment but in a multitude of situations (kindergarten, pre-school, several different kind of sports and hobbies, profession), different kinds of registers. All this is normally the case with someone with a broad educational (and yes - academic) background and having lived in the country of the target language since early childhood. In addition, highly educated native speakers after a certain age, probably around 30, achieve a level, I always call it D1 and later in life D2 - if they read a lot, that clearly goes beyond C2, the latter one achievable in rare cases by non-natives.
My experience learning Ukrainian Cyrillic is that learning a new alphabet is not that hard. Learning the vocabulary and grammar is hard. Japanese, with two different syllabaries and ideograms as well, would be a lot more challenging, but if you just got a good book on it and put the time in you could do it (relatively) quickly in comparison to learning vocabulary or grammar
