Let's Pasmo!!
Finally, we got a miracle card, called Pasmo ;)
If you get this card, you can take almost all train lines and buses.
First of all, you need to pay 2,000yen (500yen is a deposit)
and then you can charge anytime at atations.
Once you get this card, it makes much easier to take trains.
More information is available here

wow, that's great! i have one for the buses and trains here and it's cheaper than using cash or even the regular bus/train card you buy at the station. i wonder if it is hard to get a japanese credit card for when i return. my bank charged me a lot of money every time i used my card at a store or atm (they charge a fee to convert currency).
