it is called the jet program. once you have completed a degree they will hire you over there in japan to teach english. You can request were you want to teach but they don't guarantee anything. pay i heard of last is around $34,000. it has to be for a year though. it is a good idea to be familiar with the language but you don't have to be fluent. i just might do it. my japanese is improving greatly and once i graduate (spring 2005) i would be crazy enough to go live over there for a year.
go here for more info

that's one of them.. there's lots..
im thinking of doing it, not for a whole year though.. i know some guys that live there and barely speak any japanese, you can only get away with it in certain parts though... |

You don't have to speak japanese.. of course, if you do, you could probably get around better in the beginning.
However, pretty much all request that you have this English teacher's diploma (forgot what it's called).. Japan is the biggest market right now, but you can pick wherever you would want to go (for example, go to a country whose language you want to learn while making money by teaching english there). Oh, and in most places you sign a 6-month contract, some 1 year (yes, Japan is one of those), and you can renew it if they offer you to stay/you like it. Some places you can do a 3-month summer program. It's very interesting. I'm thinking of doing this when I graduate from univ. next summer..
It might be somewhat problematic if English is not your first language, I heard.. |

I know one thing for sure:
The Japanese was sadistic and insane. Just have a look at the
history books. I'd say they got away easy with Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
They've done some terrible things man. Just ask China.
Worse than the Germans... Way worse.
I don't want to go. (Tokyo is probably a blast tho:) ) |

Worse than the Germans? That may be pushing it a bit... They did mass genocide? |

From memory (I may be way off here), the stuff they did to China was comparable to some of the things the Nazis did.
Having said that, you can hardly judge them for that today, from what I hear Japan is a perfectly normal and 'nice' country :p |
