I live in Japan and have done a few visa applications here.

They are very strict to the rules but you should be fine for tourist visas.

Any O or especially O-A is a pain as they oblige you to have the papers stamped by the Minisry of Foreign Affairs even if the original papers are in english !

Good luck

Let us know how it goes and if they give a triple entry

They certainly are sticklers for rules there. But I agree TR should be a breeze. They can really only issue )-A's to Japanese or PR's in Japan. The rules say you can only get O-A in your country of residency.

The embassy in Tokyo is near GOTANDA station on the Yamanote train loop line.

For a tourist visa it will be application in the morning and pick-up 1 or 2 days later. Look at their website some of which is in english

one quick question, i been researching and notice that on the Thai consulate in Japan website there are 4 location where i can get the visa,

Tokyo, Osaka, Yokohama or Nagoya, but when i look at thailand website it said only 2 location Tokyo and Osaka that issue visa, does anybody know if Nagoya thai consulate is issuing visa, or is it just a help center.

Nagoya can issue visa's. All the Consulates in Japan can.

What you find at the MFA web site are "official" consulates staffed by MFA but none of the honorary type; so for USA you only see Washington, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.
