I've worked in Japan. It is easy if you already have a job offer. It's probably impossible if you don't. Getting an apartment there is painful because Japanese won't rent to foreigners without a Japanese person signing the lease. I think it might even be a law? So you either need a Japanese co-signer or you have to rent a place owned by the mob.
