I'm literally taking a break from planning a 2-week Japan trip in the fall and have been stressing all day because our translator (my weaboo friend who just so happens to actually be a native speaker) dropped out of the trip this morning, so I went to Lemmy to relax for a second and this was the first post I saw
Google lens and Google translate does a really good job at translation.
A lot of signs are in English.
If you're really concerned, this book is really great "Japanese Point-and-Speak Phrasebook"
Source: I was there last year.
Was just there for 2 weeks, can confirm this is all you need.
Also Google maps for the subway.
