Yes Yaguchi, listen to MMM, it's not as easy as you would imagine. Just like any country, you can not simply walk in and be accepted as a citizen. It is a long process and can take a long time before you are allowed to stay in Japan.

When I was younger, and only up until a few years ago, I thought I could just simply move to Japan and get a citizenship. If only it were that simple.

I advise you to go as a tourist a couple of times and feel it out before you attempt to just up and leave.

I still have yet to visit the country myself, but you can learn a lot about how it operates just by reading the threads here.
