Is it really that easy for a gaijin to secure a job there legally?

For the working visa, is it really that easy to obtain? Just need your hiring company to fill your application & your passport? That's all? Validity is one year?

It had been my dream working in Japan since I am young.

But from your reply the average salary is only 500k yen, that is not a lot for an expensive city like Tokyo.

Trust me, Tokyo ain't that expensive.
My lifestyle is more easier and carefree in Tokyo compare to my home here in Kota Kinabalu.

If it is a life without commitment, only rental & daily expenses in Tokyo I guess it is ok with 500k yen.

Currently I still have commitments such as family & loans to settle in Malaysia though, so with only 500k yen (~RM 20k) I believe it will just be a break-even for me currently

Guessed I should have started this journey long ago.

By the way on the visa question, appreciate your advice.
