HOW TO MOVE TO JAPAN FOR DUMMIES

Step 8.) Complete JLPT. Take the Harder JLPT exam next year (N2 in 2018 if you took N3, if you took N2 and passed in 2017, aim for N1 in 2018 because why not)

Step 9.) Get associate's degree from your community college. Get a full-time job and save money. You need at least $26,000 in the bank.

Step 10.) Take 2018 or 2019 JLPT. Pass. Remember, if you fail the exam, you are fucked. Do Not fail the exam. It is only administered once a year. This will be your N2 certificate or N1 certificate. This is your ticket to Japan, TIP: If you have acquired N2 or N1 before getting your associate's degree, it is technically possible to move to Japan "early" on under-graduate visa to complete your bachelor's, but for most learners, you will have to wait until you have a bachelor's

If you got this far, you're probably one of the chosen ones. From here on will entail how you transition to moving to Japan from where you are now, so please be mentally ready for what lies ahead

Step 11.) Acquire N2 or N1 certificate based on how good your japanese study was. Acquire bachelor's degree from your community college. Have $26,000 in your bank account.

The door is now open. Your path to Japan is finally open, anon

Select one of the following steps and pursue that specific step until its completion and you will finally live in Japan and earn a japanese flag icon on 4chan

Step 12a.) Student visa method - Apply to japanese university. Show everyone your N2 or N1 certificate to bypass japanese learning school requirement. Enter japanese university on scholarship. Stay in japanese university until you find good job, then leave school and transfer to work visa

Step 12b.) Work visa method: Use the website Gaijob to find a job in japan and apply. Show bachelor's degree, and if required for a translator job, N2/N1 certificate.

Step 12c.) Marriage visa method: Marry a japanese girl. Get free access to japan. You now have access to every single job in japan. Literally all of them.

Sounds great, but why?

Step 12d.) JET Method: Apply to JET Programme. This method does not require $26,000 so if you have trouble acquiring $26,000 this is the method for you. Be warned: JET is 80% autism. You will have severe autistic co-workers who are NOT prepared for Japan. You will be one of the sane, strong 20%. Use time in JET looking for a different job. JET Is a dead-end job, it is only used to get your foot in the door. You will be employed in Japan for a while, use your days off and vacation pursuing other jobs. Also, JET does not require N2. HOWEVER. Your jobs after JET while require Japanese knowledge, so N2 is still highly reccomended if your future is in Japan. Bachelor's degree still required for this method

Apply for JET here (only if doing Step10d): https://jetprogramusa.org/

Step 12e.) 10 years work experience

If you can't get a bachelor's degree, and you can't get a japanese girlfriend, but you can save $26,000, there is one method for you. If you work the same job for 10-years consecutively, you can apply for japanese job of the same type. For example: Chef in 10 years in America > Chef in Japan. This is the only step besides a marriage visa that does not require bachelor's degree or N2 requirement.

Step 12f.) Rich as fuck method

If you are "Rich as fuck", there is an easy shortcut to Japan. Attend a JLS for 6 months > 2 years. Find a 5-star JLS here: https://gogonihon.com/ - You will spend roughly $30,000 for 2 years in japan. They will teach you Japanese. At the end of 2 years, they will help you apply to Japanese university if you do not have bacheor's degree. If you have bachelor's degree, they will help you find a job in Japan.

THATS IT. These are the only SIX "Real" methods to entering Japan. Pick 1 of these 6. That's all you get. Seriously.

Good luck anon, you'll need it.

why in the fuck would i want to move to the second most xenophobic country on earth? (north korea takes the first place)

literally davido-kun: the guide

Why the fuck would anyone go and live in japan

>>38084565
It's only xenophobic if you're unwilling to conform to their country. There are bigger problems. Recession and low birth rates, for instance, or a lot of young people deliberately choosing unemployment.

Id rather live in Norway.
I grew out of Japan when I realized what a shot country it is for foreigners

will look into it, thx.
considering moving to japan after finishing university

no thanks weeb shill

I'm looking into going into a English-based undergraduate degree program in Japan, wish me luck anons!

Sounds like Japan would be an amazing place to visit, or live as a native, but living as a foreigner would be pretty shit.
Also the language is complicated as fuck, it takes years to become fluent.

As for qt nip girls, I live in a city with the largest Japanese population in Europe or so I've been told. So it's still possible

>>38084492

Screw Japan. It's small, cramped, geologically unstable and tsumani prone. I want to move to the US and to one of those farming/wilderness
states where the population density is like 1 person per 50 square miles.

Why? Japan is a nice country and all but what would change? What do you hope to gain? A job? You can get that anywhere in the world, you'd probably be better off moving to a shithole actually. A girlfriend/wife? I don't think there's any difference between Western and Japanese girls. They're not like in anime or porn where they'll just fuck some random autist in the middle of the street and be you'll be waifu and husbandfu for life. I don't know any other reason why you would move there.
If you really want to move to an East Asian country, go China, Thailand, Laos or Vietnam or somewhere like that. You could probably get a good job far easier and women would be over your dick even if you were a fat manlet.

>>38084492
I'm going into international business management as my major and already have multiple footholds in China regarding outsourcing engineering/manufacturing for US companies. I love Japan but nobody here can ignore the fact that living there would be miserable for a foreigner. You will love it at first but when you get past the honeymoon phase you will wonder why the fuck you committed to living there because working conditions are far more harsh then the U.S. If you really want to learn about Japanese culture and get to spend a lot of time there, learn japanese while majoring in business or international business like i'm doing. You'll get to travel there plenty for months at a time and there will be lots of shit to do, but you won't have to work there.

if it wasn't for anime/manga, I'd never plan to live in Japan

Step 13. Start a youtube channel redpilling weebs on life in japan

> it takes years to become fluent
Same for any other language you're not a native speaker of. Exception for similar languages like German and Dutch or Russian and Ukrainian.

Howdy /r9k/, folks call me Texas Junpei.

I'm a 27 year old Japanese Cowoby (Western fan for you weeaboo faggots). I whittle sticks and make dum-dum bullets using my bowie knife, and spend my days perfecting my gunplay and playing superior western games. (bull riding, knife tricks, lasso)

I train with my Smith Wesson K38 special every day, chambered with cordite, this superior weapon can cut clean through three men standing one in front of the other, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my moseyin license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.

I speak American fluently, both Wisconsin and the Alabama dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about the older times, before the trains swept the gunslingers and cow-riders away with their iron rails, and I know the cowboy code, which I follow 100%

When I get my American visa, I am moving to Boise to attend a prestigious rodeo to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an outlaw for the Hole in the Wall gang or a mysterious gunslinger who cleans up the town, and departs mysteriously, leaving only a vague hint that I am actually the spirit of a murdered sheriff, or death himself or something!

I own several gunbelts, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to America, so I can fit in easier. I tip my hat to old timers and ladies of fine breeding and speak Texan as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.

Anyways, I'll be making /r9k/ my temporarily home if its not too much trouble, so long little doggies!

DO NOT MOVE TO JAPAN.
JAPANESE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT YOU IN THEIR COUNTRY.
JAPANESE PEOPLE DO NOT ENJOY HAVING YOU IN THEIR COUNTRY.
SPEAKING WITH YOUR BROKEN AMERICAN ACCENT IS AN IMMEDIATE RED FLAG FOR MOST JAPANESE.

>>38085873
What about speaking in a slav accent, do they think it's cute?

Im not a weeb i have always been interested in the culture since i was young but weeaboos have since ruined everything to do with it.

How to move to Japan or anywhere in the world


Step 1: Have money

Step 2: Profit

>>38089380
The process of going to Japan requires a good deal of sorting yourself out and putting yourself together. If someone makes it through this process they'll have solved a lot of big problems many robots have.

Why would any foreigner want to move to Japan?

>They hate anyone who looks or acts different
>You're expected to work incredibly long hours
>No safety net for unemployed people, getting fired puts you on a societal blacklist
>Except for models and pop stars, the women are fugly

>>38084492
I don't want to move to Japan but I would like to learn how to speak Japanese. If my High School had that as a class I would have actually learned a second language. Instead I just did the bare minimum and passed my spanish classes but didn't learn anything after the 3rd year.

Its funny how nobody ever actually learns a language in US language classes. They learn like 50 words over the course of a year and forget them.
