You guys are still getting ahead of yourselves. In any case a dislike for ones own country/culture and an infatuation with another country's culture especially having never lived there at least a year or two is really bad reasoning for wanting to move. How do you know Japan will be so much better? One thing for sure you will find is that your standard of living will not nearly be as high here. I have lived here for 7 years, it has its good parts and bad parts just like anyplace else. I will be moving back to the states this year with my fiance. Japan is nice but it is not the place i would prefer to spend the rest of my days.
I think you and your fiance are trying to plan things out very well, but sadly you might be setting yourselves up for disappointment, since you may think you know Japan, but if you have not been here I assure you that you do not. I think you should come here with the plan of "temporary visitor", if you can manage to get here, and then decide if this is how you want to live the rest of your life.
