Teaching in Japanese highschools vs American highschools

Hi, I am currently studying for my degree in Education to become an English Teacher. I am planning on moving to Japan one day, but have been wavering on whether I want to teach highschool or college. Highschool is a definite no go in America due to all the horror stories you hear about unfair pay, violence against teachers and more, but how is it teaching in highschool in Japan? I know bullying can be rampant, and that there tends to be extreme pressure on students to make good grades, but not much more than that. Is there anyone who could give me a good picture of what it's like to teach in a Japanese highschool? Any input is greatly appreciated!
