Yep, getting the working VISA is a hard thing. Most people end up going over there on a visa to teach English and then start looking for work in other fields. (even though you are not supposed to do that lol)

And just so you know, being an extra ain't that great. It gets real old, real fast. But at least you get paid more for it in Japan than you do in the US.
