Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are curious about purchasing an iPhone in one country and using it in another. There may be two different areas you need to consider when purchasing an iPhone in one country and using it in another.
First, when the iPhone is purchased, it may be locked to the specific carrier that you purchased the iPhone with. If this is the case, the following article gives you information about unlocking the iPhone with that carrier.

As far as knowing if the iPhone will work on a carrier in Japan, I suggest contacting whichever carrier in Japan is planned on being used and discussing with them what options you have. The following article outlines which carriers offer iPhone service in Japan.

Have a great day!
