Here is a link to their website - have a look Japanese Cell Phone Rental from Narita Airport, Tokyo
I used them when I went to Tokyo and I would recommend them.

That's a wicked deal as long as you're on the receiving end of the phone calls.
Otherwise, the Softbank deal is better if you plan on making (an average of) more than 2 minutes of outgoing calls per day.
