The following will work for not only Google, but other sites that sniff out your language settings.

Firefox (recent version)

Tools -> Options -> Content -> Languages [Choose] -> Select Japanese and English, then move English to the top of the list.
That makes English the default language for pages that detect your browser or OS language.

If you're not using Firefox, can't help you.
