respectfully suggesting bumping of the resolution for the kanji
i don't know about other people, but i always get bilingual maps, to enable native japanese people to assist me better when i'm asking for directions
and saying that the effort is much appreciated! good work!
tried printing it out on one sheet of paper -- almost made it!
again, good work!

Well these are the official maps. Either they are only in Japanese or like this. I couldm't find anything else better. Anyway, Japanese can read romaji.
