As for the website, it's not terribly difficult to click through to purchase tickets but my worry is that they will not accept non-Japan based cards. Obviously, I don't want to try with my credit card but for these sorts of things. When prompted for contact information, I've found that putting in the hotel's address and contact information usually works, ie when I did the JAL hangar tour earlier this year but I don't know if that would be sufficient when charging a credit card (the JAL hangar tour was free).
I was able to buy Orix tickets in advance a year ago without a japanese credit card or home address. I am confident it can be done. I'll poke at this when I don't have a headache.
@mxqisit - do you have access to a browser with built in translation? I have found that using the Japanese language site is usually a lot more productive.

edit to add: I checked my email and I bought my ticket from cnplayguide:
