Japanese Translation

Have you tried amazon.co.jp?

(I know yahoo will split that URL up)

It's a bit tricky to navigate though you CAN shop in English on that site.  The only 
thing is, when you do, the results tend to be the books in English.  So browse in 
Japanese.  I believe it would be possible to navigate the shopping cart section in 
English so that once you get the books you want into your shopping cart, you can go 
through the check-out process in English.  And they do ship international.  I've 
managed to order books from there in the past with extremely limited Japanese skills.

If you live in or near LA or Chicago, you can go to Asahiya Bookstore and just get it 
there.

Kinokuniya bookstores are in the LA Area, the San Francisco Bay area, in Seattle, 
Portland, New York and New Jersey and they all should have the books in stock as 
well. 

These two bookstores also have websites though I find it a bit more a challenge to 
navigate those.  :) You might call them up and see if you can actually order it from 
them if you're nowhere near these stores.

Good Luck!
