That's a good question. What Japanese Sim would you be using? The rental sims do not get a signal out size of Japan. If you had a Sim from one of the big networks you might be able to Roam, enabling you to receive SMS. Having said that I don't know if any of the big networks do pre-paid sims. My experience is: a Sim from the Philippines can get a signal in Japan from either Docomo or Softbank. Globe - Softbank. Smart - Docomo ..

Sorry I don't have more info..
