No, No Degree at all!
It's not about that. If you go to Japan with the Working Holiday Visum and you work for a teaching company for lets say 6 months and then your WHV runs out, but you would like to stay even longer.. then this company if they want to keep you, will promote for your working visa even without a degree. The company decides if they want to keep you or not and the government won't do a thing about it if your company promotes for you. You need a Company which is willing to Sponsor you, thats the key I guess.
It's more about your personality and attitude then having a degree or not. There are hundreds of examples out there guys.
The rule of having a degree to stay longer is complete false information. It might be a lot easier, especially for guys who can't apply for the WHV.. but it is in no means neccessary.
To get a work visa you need:
* a valid passport;
* an application form;
* one passport-size photo; and
* a certificate of eligibility issued by the Japanese Immigration Bureau (your employer must apply for the certificate).
