Post I want to move to Japan and I have questions?
So yeah I want to move to Japan because I just love the culture over the and such. I have been teaching myself the language and all so I could make it there. Here is my question tho I don't know what I would do for money there I don't want to be an English teach like the rest of the people who move there are or most I guess. What is something I can go to school for that they need over there?
How do you gain residence there also after you go there on a work visa or something and is it possible to get there without one?

Other than teaching English, most of the English speakers I know here in Japan work as translators and interpreters, and I know a few girls who work as bar hostesses. But you need a job lined up to get a visa, and it's hard to get a job in anything but English teaching if you're not already in Japan. My advice would be to sign up with one of the bigger English teaching companies, get the visa and come to Japan, and then start looking for jobs you could do after your teaching contract is up.

Go to real estate agency and find an apartment.

No. You can only stay in Japan up to 90 days without a visa.

You need a four year degree to work there. No, no, and no. Japan has a very closed immigration policy.
You have to have good English to teach English...
To get a work visa you need a solid job offer before you go there.You're not allowed to just show up.
Maybe you should wait until you can speak, read and write Japanese at a native level ?

What's the point even asking this question. It's never going to happen for you. We don't need some anime manga fool to just show up. Most people out here don't even speak English. So if you don't know the language your screwed, and none of that "kawaii" crap.

Japan lacks OB&GYN's and love doctors you could do that!

(beware of some places in the country side though! They dont like gaijin)
