Posted in: Try to get a credit card in Japan See in context
It took me no effort at all to get my credit card (and it has an absurd ¥700,000 limit, way bigger than my credit card in Canada has).
Then a few weeks later, I applied for a small loan (to pay for the ETC reader I had had installed in my motorcycle--I would've been happy just to pay that off, but whatever), and received another credit card entirely by accident.

They're called the Tokyo Rockabilly Club, not the "Elvis Guys".
And the music they blast is 1960s rock'n'roll-inspired Japanese music known as "Group Sounds".
