worst comes to worst, go for a bilingual like Yohioloid, Luka, Nana, etc. But be aware all except yohioloid are better in Japanese then English.

As others have said, unless you speak Japanese, you should stick to english first. Too many buy a Japanese vocaloid, and either find themselves limited to one of three options;
 * 1) cover songs, which are fine but unless you can make a vocal stand out prepare to be swallowed up as there is literally a sea of cover songs at this point.
 * 2) "Engrish", using a Japanese vocaloid to produce low quality English, which requires using the japanese phonetics to make English, which can take many times longer and as I said... It produces LQ results.
 * 3) Machine translators... Which will leave you with embarrassing or humorous results.

there are several vocals with demos, you can access several Japanese ones on the Ah software website.

Lastly, you need knowledge of a DAW like Cubase or FL studio...
