I am embarking on a 2 week trip to Tokyo in about a month and a half with three people who are 25 or older (the oldest is 31). I am 19. I was wondering what the drinking age is in Japan and how stricty it's enforced on foreigners.

It's 20 and it's not enforced-end of story. When I taught high school kids in Japan they were out at the same clubs I was. I made them buy me a drink if I caught them!! Good times...

The drinking age is 20. I don'tthink they are very strict with foreigners.. But they are pretty strict with their own people.

you can buy alcohol through vending machines. some of these machines are setup so you can only purchase at certain times.
