I love Japan and wish I can live there, but due to not speaking the language I would not be able to get work. Its busy like NYC with a ton of 7/11 stores. Most people do not speak English, but you can get by in Japan without having to speak Japanese. It is pretty safe compared to most countries. Just learn the currency and some basic words/sentences. The train ticket system can be tricky though.
I was just over there in October visiting my in-laws, they only speak Japanese.
