    People are very friendly there, and many speak some amount of english, especially in Tokyo. A lot of signs have English translation on them too. Learn some polite phrases and try your best, and use a translator app if needed. You will do just fine!

      This is what I’ve been hearing a lot. Still, it seems a bit rude to go there without anyone in our party who can fluently communicate. I suppose I’ve got plenty of time to brush up on some simple polite phrases!
