If you are a person from a country outside Japan, you have to reside in Japan for five years consecutively to make yourself entitled for the citizenship of Japan. The five years duration can be reduced if you are married to a citizen of Japan. There are some other requirements also that you will know when you contact them.
One of the main concerns for foreigners is that Japan does not allow multiple citizenships, and if you want to become a Japanese citizen you have to renounce your past nationality. Sometimes this clause hurts people deeply and has made them think twice before going for the citizenship of Japan.
If you want to know more about the procedure to get the citizenship of Japan, you can visit the website of Government of Japan, which provides the information in detail about the procedure.
