Hello from Europe

So what are Yen withdraw times at now ? Sepa is around 5-6 weeks but is at least working unlike the dollar.
Starting to think it might be worth a flight to Japan but then I would need a year long visa to even open a bank account or so I hear.  Still cant find a net bank that is also in English and not sure I can learn Japanese in an adequate time frame either.

Any tips not involving a time machine?

Get someone that is Japanese to help you?
I think the only way that you could get it out would be to transfer to a Japanese resident but that would require a huge amount of trust no matter how you arranged it. Although earlier posts in this thread suggest even domestic yen withdrawals are taking around 4 weeks so there is no guarantee you'll get it much faster. Are you sure Sepa is only taking 5-6 weeks btw? I thought it was longer..
