You won't have trouble finding Italian restaurants in Japan. If you can eat cheese, pizza is a good option as most places have a few meatless pizzas, or others that you can ask for without meat. There are usually meatless pasta dishes like tomato, arrabiata, pepperoncino etc. But sometimes they contain bacon for some reason, so ask for 'be-kon nashi.' A problem with pasta is that sometimes chicken or beef stock is used in the sauce, so it's good to ask, and avoid the soupy pasta dishes. Try to find the more authentic Italian restaurants for more vegetarian choices. Sometimes Japanese-style spaghetti (made with soy sauce, nori, shiso/mushrooms/spinach/kimchi/natto/etc) suitable for vegetarians can be found, but again check if they use fish or animal stock. Unless you can communicate well with the chef, vegan options can be limited in Italian restaurants.
