I take it you understand Japanese ?
Last time I played a Japanese game (which was a kind of Super Smash Bros for ShonenJump (or at least that's the name I can come up with)) and I understood absolutely diddly-squat. But that game didn't really have a storyline so all dat squiggle on my screen was ignorable
I don't speak or read Japanese at any competent level, but there are phrases and kanji that I recognize. But I'm not playing RPGs or anything, mostly puzzle games and platformers.
Last one I looked at was Tekkyu Fight! Great Battle Gaiden, which is pretty much a platform beat'em up, so it's not too hard to figure out what's going on. On the other hand, Kakutou Ryouri Densetsu Bistro Recipe would be so much easier with either an English patch or a better understanding of Japanese.
