It's funny that you could be pleased to do something as trivial as activating and charging a prepaid credit card with funds but given that I had to use Google Translate every step of the way it was something. Japanese website design is so graceless, it's hard to reconcile with the care that seems to go into everything in day to day life here. E.g. This is the main page once you've logged in the card management website.
