On paper, based on this calculator, and assuming I get a 8+ million yen job, I would have more than 80 points through the HSP Visa. A year of work for PR is a dream for me, but this isn't something you can just apply for. An employer has to sponsor you for it. I've read some very pessimistic comments that it's simply not going to happen and that I'll have to work 10 years like everyone else.
Is it really that hard to get? Why is it so difficult? What is the pain point for the immigrant/employers/the process that makes this option so far fetched? Or are people just being dramatic, and that it's actually doable if you put the work in?
