I will speak from the perspective of someone who's had a very similar mindset during college and spent a couple of years in Taipei, and will probably come back again.
A few points first.
>i don't fit in, no friends, no relationships
Foreigners living in Asia tend to be more open to friendships than back home, so maybe that'll help. The locals may not be this willing though. This being said, if you ever manage to find a job there and a visa, do realize that the first months will be the loneliest you'll ever be.
>learning japanese
If you really want to move to Japan, I would highly suggest you take that up a notch from now on. There is no one particular thing that will enhance your chances at finding an opportunity more than this particular skill. Japan is especially serious about this
>Aunt
Having someone there is great for morale. You could always see her during weekends, and if shit gets real and you may get a job opportunity she can help you with getting an appartment, contacting landlords etc. Just remember that you shouldn't press her too much if you want her to be a friend of yours during this whole thing. If she's used to recruitment practices you should call her and ask her about reading your japanese CV and shit like that.

>Would it be possible? What should I do to achieve this?
It is possible but it is going to be very hard, Anon. Here are the disadvantages you have over a local :
_You need a visa sponsorship to work there
_You don't speak japanese (they really don't care that you're "learning", you either speak it or you don't)
_You're not a specialist or anything millions of japs aren't (i.e you have no meaningful work experience in your field as you have just graduated)
