Chop Sticks, Ramyun Noodle, Sake, Manga, Ninjas, Baby Metal ... what's there to be terrified of ? o_O

having a problem and nobody understanding you :p

nah I'm mostly thinking about ordering food and stuff like that.
But I get like this every time I'm traveling somewhere that I haven't been before.
I'll probably be fine by the time I'm checking in to the hotel.

Well, to make it (easier/) harder!
Japan does use English in every day life. The Romanic script proves it. (which is basically Latin, A, B, C etc. we use, if my info is correct)
However... it seems their proonounciation might be a bit different. Try to find "Jinglish" (or Jenglish, depending on the spelling) and you might see where a problem might evolve. But I reckon Tokyo adapts itself, with all tourists flocking in.

Just be well prepared! (Visa etc)
And I don't know if you can use your bank cards over there! But if you could in SA, you'd probably have no problems in Japan either.

You don't need a visa if you're leaving within 90 days again.
I'm bringing a bankcard and a creditcard, so that should be fine.
Both should work, just not everywhere.
Other than that, I just ordered a european to japanese plug so I can charge my phone over there.
I'll buy a temporary sim over there so I have data.
other than that I think I'm fine.

I have one here. (plug)
It converts to almost all systems, except the Chinese one.
But it does not adapt the power. (Australia, UK, US/Japan, EU)
Pretty handy!

And I don't know if you can buy a sim over there, but if you can, you should.

Well, veel plezier in elk geval!
