^From what I was told by those I spoke with there, it's not even common in Tokyo. They will usually be able to read a message you write in english capital letters, but unless you happen to find someone studying english like those at the guesthouse, don't count on anyone understanding a word you say. Outside the guesthouse and church, I found only 3-6 japanese people who understood spoken english in 3 months. But they are almost all very kind and generous people, which makes being there much more enjoyable than being here.
