I live in Tokyo, studying japanese and I promise you, there are not that many englishspeakers here. Ofcourse you can find englishspeakers if you want to and the rate is perhaps a bit higher then the rest of japan but there are still very few whom speak english, and if they do it is probably a very basic english. If you know fairly good japanese when you come here then you will have no problem at all. Japanese will just be the natural choise. I knew no japanese at all when I came here and so far it's working out quite well, and Tokyo is the best and coolest city in the world
