Go with a colleague who speaks Japanese.

The agent may not speak English so the hesitation to deal with you, some of them including landord are not keen to rent properties to foreigner especially Asian.
That is sad, but it goes deeper.

Browse Tokyo Notice Board, English info magazine which is free, TNB could be found in drinking places and restaurant where foreigners congregate, Roppongi is one.
There are ads for property rental with or without deposit in that mag.

Good luck.

Other forums like gaijinpot or expatjapan also have information.

Also, look at English publishings like metropolis.
