I would just like to say that the high school life in Japan is very different from the animes you're watching. I'm just saying :"> Anyway, apply for a foreign exchange student program for international schools.

High school in Japan isn't going to be 1/10 as much fun as you think it is, especially for a foreigner. However, you can look up exchange programs like AFS or YFU and try to study for a year or a semester abroad. You can also try applying to international high schools in Japan, however I wouldn't do that until you were absolutely sure you wanted to spend your entire high school in Japan. If anything, I'd do the exchange year first, and then if you really liked it, try applying to an international school.

Umm, you can join a student exchange program. There are mostly from 3 months up to a year. Try looking on the internet. My school is an all girls school but this is the name: nagoya women's university high school, or you can try seirinkan high school, nanzan high school. Although these schools are located in Nagoya. I agree, they are not like in animes. And no, they don't have ridiculously short skirts! Most of the school uniforms have their skirts an inch below the knee. Ugh, believe me, it's long, not mini! What we do is we fold it once or in my case, twice, since I'm short. Then we use a belt to keep it in place. This is the kind of belt we use: http://www.school-item.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/dsc_0769.jpg Most schools wear loafers or mary janes. And the socks are either black or navy blue. The loose white socks were a trend especially for gyal-kei fashion. But they are not allowed at school. When I was in my first year, we were scolded for our skirts, but as we gradually progress to the next year, the teachers don't say anything anymore. But we still try to make our skirts longer on graduations or when we go to take exams at colleges. I was in an all girls school by the way, so I don't know much about boys and girls school...
