Was assigned in Japan before for an international bank. Build up your resume and yes maganda may experience ka for office jobs and service jobs. It will be different if yung company na pinapasukan mo ang magpapadala sayo sa Japan, usually sagot nila accomodation and living allowances mo dun. Pero if you will be going there via agency (not sure what agencies and meron and type of job for Japan) definitely you wil lbe shelling out money to process your papers and also allowance mo pagdating dun. I cannot estimate now how much will that be.

Japanese people are very strict with time ayaw nila ng late also with cleanliness. They also value camaraderie kaya madalas panay aya ang head chief ng inom or kain sa labas after ng shift, and no matter how late you get home dapat on time ka pa rin pagpasok the next day. Pulido ang trabaho dapat and mataas ang value mo sa respect. Even if foreigner ako I am expected to give same amount of courtesy sa mga co workers ko.

try to get at least JLPT N2 if you want to be in the corporate world. the only jobs you can do without any N2 is usually an English teacher. or labor related jobs. or ipadala ka ng company sa japan like what happened to sis vermich.

what field or industry gusto mo pasukan sis?

I don't know about japan but you should work in your country because my friend went abroad as a professional thesis writer where his experience was not so good he went to Mexico where his salary is not good as he thought. So, he recommends that we should work in our country instead of going abroad.
