do you guys know of any maps online that are in english? i'm looking for maps in english of the tokyo area and the train station maps. i take way too long staring at the train maps at the station and i would like to be a little more prepared when i travel everyday. my google turned japanese also, so do you know how to turn it back to english? it always gives me search results to japanese sites.

This map have the station's names in english Tokyo Train Map in English photo - Gino T. Manalastas photos at pbase.com
(note: Thare are so many stations in Tokyo o.o Surely it is very easy to get lost!)
About you Google have turned into japanese, it happened because you zoomed into japan with google maps. Try to zoom somewhere else and the language in the screen will change once again.

Even though ur browser defaults to the Japanese gateway, just use google.ca and 1/2 of everything will be in english. You can search in english as well.

Otherwise you can go the the train station and ask for a JR East map, it's completely in english.
