A long requested, though sadly not terribly exciting topic: Cost of Living in Tokyo. I go through my monthly bills and hopefully give an idea of what one can expect to pay. Some interesting links...

dude is a total idiot. Who the hell spends $3.50 on a cup of coffee everyday? (stop overpaying for coffee at places like starbucks). Dude pays 12$ for hamburgers at a fancy place no shit it'll cost you that much. This dude is living extravagant and is complaining about the cost lol. Prices for lunch or dinner should average you about $5-7 bucks. This dude is your typical complaining Gaijin exacerbating his situation.

😭 I live in Australia and these costa are very similar hahaha wow

ALL big cities in all countries have many apartment complexes where studios and 1 bed apts that go for 3k and up. But many of those places also have very affordable places to live too. It's not like all Tokyo apartments are several grand per month

Try living in Melbourne or Sydney.

that's very similar to perth Australia, if not cheaper I'd say! :) burgers are about $12-20 here and there's no way you're going to find a proper coffee for less than $4.50

Tokyo living are real expensive but somewhere in Tokyo they cost the same in American money so basically it's normal

That is why it is cheaper to build a home near Tokyo than to rent.

as long as you have the right documentation... yes, like everywhere else... it also depends on the visa you're willing to apply, for a work a visa, you should have a job offer waiting for you. Otherwise it's easier as a student (but you can only work part-time)
