RE: Aki Jitan (A great noodle bar in Tokyo, A Tasteem Review)
Cool. I guess things are changing there like most places. If you go back 20 yeas in France you wouldn't find many people using English and now, especially the younger generation, they regularly speak it.
I have some friends/colleagues from a previous school that worked in Hiroshima. They had lots of stories from their time there. Partly why I'm fascinated with Japan now.
It also really depends on where in the country. Most of the larger cities are better with English, but the smaller areas and rural places tend to still be difficult to communicate, even in Europe!
You're right. Even in Romania. In Bucharest the English level is very good, the moment you leave the city it stops drastically.
