I tried applying for the LINEMO mini plan but after a few hours they emailed me that my order is pending and I have to call them for checking and confirmation. I don’t have a phone number yet and my Japanese is broken. Is there any better Sim-provider with a store that helps me get my sim? And what do i need to bring with me? Thank you

It depends on how much data or voice you use, but for 3 gigs I used Iijmio and it was pretty good. You just need a credit card, even a foreign card will work. I went to an electronic store to sign up.
Take appointment in a shop that have english speakers. I did that at SoftBank : [https://www.softbank.jp/en/mobile/shop/](https://www.softbank.jp/en/mobile/shop/)
My first attempt got cancelled because I messed up on the residence card/passport part (they ask that you hide the gender or something like that)
I cancelled and redid the process, then got my sim the next day
Sakura mobile is easy to deal with and completely in English. But a bit expensive
