u order the jr pass outside of japan, it cannot be purchased from within
as for english, there are a shit ton more english menus and signs everywhere now, perhaps in anticipation of the next summer olympics to be held there.
if ur staying near the major cities where most tourists visit, you will survive just fine on english.
besides now with cheap mobile data, google helps with everything
things were different 10 years ago, a lot harder to get around.
but of course if you can speak a little japanese asking for information is a ton easier.. im rusty as hell but i managed to get by
