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 that doesn't inspire you to pick up a Japanese book, then consider that most foreigners don't speak Japanese either. They are targeting the same girls as you are. Unless you consider yourself a cut above the average gaijin, you should increase your odds by learning Japanese and going for the girls who don't speak English.
A caveat for the language geeks: Japanese girls will not go home with you simply because you're bilingual. You could have a doctorate in Japanese language studies, but if you look more like a chump than a champ, you'll be going home alone.
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.
