I've visited for a total of a month across multiple trips. I don't really know any Japanese, maybe the odd words here and there but that's it. Major cities all have fantastic english signage. Just not everyone speaks English "well". But Line or Google Translate work fine enough, especially when making friends. The only place I struggled a little with public transportation was Sapporo on some random bus line that surprisingly had no english signage or announcements, but even then GPS helped well enough.
