If you are in Japan, the best resource for scripts is the Waseda Engeki 
Hakubutsukan. They not only have thousands of scripts, they have a very 
good catalog for scripts which even indexes scripts published in film 
magazines (a frequent practice especially in the 1950s and 60s).

If you can't get to Waseda, the best resource is Tanikawa Yoshio's 
_Shinario bunken_ (Futosha, 1997), which is mostly an index to scripts 
published in the major magazines. It is an essential text for any 
research collection on Japanese film.
