Just be sure you're moving there for the right reasons. You can be independent just about anywhere. If like many you're viewing it like some anime themed amusement park, that'd be the wrong reason to move there. If you're able respect local customs and are willing to adapt your life style to match the local culture you should be fine though. The people who struggle the most are the ones who go thinking the whole country needs to adapt to them and their life style, or who think it's a nation of anime fans and everything everywhere is like Akiba.

Look for other people asking the same thing. If you don't know where to look, make a place for them and let them come to you.
