The Japanese language is easier to pick up as a speaker than most realize, but expect years and years (and years) of training to be able to fluently read Kanji.
QFT. The fact that the police somehow couldn't find Tatsuya Ichihashi when he was apparently living in Ikebukuro for a full year after his crime was disgusting. If a gaijin had done that to a Japanese person, they would've been tracked down in one week at most. My vote would be for Thailand.
