Japanese communication skill is not absolutely vital to score yourself a Japanese girl. I am acquainted with more than a few lotharios in Tokyo who can scarcely decipher the menu at a Japanese restaurant, but take home women with astonishing frequency. Anyone would be startled at precisely how far a couple of phrases in addition to a ton of gestures and grabby-handing can go.
But don't take that as an excuse to neglect your studies. Japanese language ability is absolutely indispensable if you're trying to meet girls in Tokyo. Despite being an international metropolis, rates of English penetration in Tokyo are abysmal. The majority of Japanese girls can barely answer "What color is this?" without consulting their iPhones. Good luck trying to chat up a girl who can't understand a word your saying!
Speaking Japanese and English proficiently will open you to the large number of Japanese girls that want to speak English, but cannot. You are the manifestation of their multilingual fantasies, which is another reason for them to meet you for drinks as opposed to flaking on you in traditional J-girl style. The romantics amongst you may balk at the thought of girls dating you for free English lessons, but hey, this kind of exchange happens all the time. You might as well use it to your advantage. I am positive plenty of you reading this today have acquaintances who you wouldn't associate with if it wasn't for their one particular skill-set that you value enough to endure their of their foolishness.
Additionally, even with what you might have learnt, most Japanese girls who can use English still want to converse using Japanese and a hopeless or merely troublesome language barrier is a ground for dismissal. Japanese girls usually at least contemplate the thought of a long term relationship, and that thought ends up being more daydream than reality if you aren't able to string enough words together to have a conversation.
If you're still not sold on learning the language, another factor to consider is that you will be competing with other lazy foreigners for girls who already speak good English. Your lack of language ability will preclude you from social scenes where Japanese is a must, thus confining you to the foreigner scene. Girls who frequent the foreigner scene do so because they prefer to behave more like Westerners, which takes the fun out of international dating in my opinion.
A word of caution for the Japanophiles: Japanese girls will not get dirty with you just because you can read Shonen Jump. A out of shape, poorly dressed fella is unnoticeable to girls no matter how many obscure prefectural dialects he can ape. I ought to know, that used to be me.
In closing, you don't need to understand Japanese in order to get girls in Japan, but being able to will make the progression much simpler. If you intend on being in Japan for longer than several weeks, you should consider hitting your local language center.
Always remember, "Let's help each other study" is a classic pretense for a date.
