If you are only 16, why don't you start martial arts or something.

Tons of foreigners come to Japan to train at dojo in Japan.

It could be karate, judo, aikido, kendo as long as they are Japanese one.

I bet if you are good at it, you can get a culture visa or something.

I mean, personally, when I was 16, I didn't know shit about how the society functions and one very important element that you seem to be not getting is when you go to Japan and if you want to stay there, you need to make money!!

Have you ever thought about that?

Getting to Japan is one thing but surviving there is another.

And that's why, bachelor's degree would not only help you obtain a proper visa to work in Japan but also it allows you to seek necessary skills that you can use to make MONEY.

Plus, you have to learn Japanese first anyways and it could easily take your entire university years.
