Question:
How much English is spoken in Tokyo? My friend is telling me that since it's such a popular tourist destination that most of the people in Tokyo can speak and understand simple English.
Is that true?
Answer:
Most people in big cities like Tokyo and tourist areas in Japan can speak and understand basic English. Japanese people tend to be hesitant in using their English but they all study it as a second language from Junior High School (past) to Elementary School recently). I always recommend learning some basic Japanese yourself before visiting Japan.
