This is the first post that has a title. I guess it's beause this is mostly going to be about opening a bank account only. I'll "try" to only put stuff about banks here.
So... (I only considered 2 banks :P)
The first bank I tried to open an account with is shinsei bank (新生銀行, I think... idk japanese).
The most important thing you must consider before opening an account with them is...
Q: Are you under 20?
A: If yes: you need MOAR paper work and if your parents aren't in japan you prolly can't open an account with them. Correct me if I'm wrong.
If no: you're fine and you may open an account with shinsei bank.
This paragraph is still about shinsei bank. The main reasons I considered shinsei bank is that the website is in english! And depending on the colour of cash card you pick you can get the cash card right away. The cash cards look pretty cool IMO.
The other bank I considered is yuucho aka japan post bank (ゆうちょ銀行).
This one, you don't have to be at least 20 years old. Buy you don't get the cashcard instantly.
The main advantage about this one is that the post office is "everywhere". Unlike other banks where the branches (not atms) are only at certain places.
That's all I have to say for now...
