@Missal
You need to know the language-learning system in Japan.
We have to learn English until the end of high school. In college, it's just one of the elective subjects, so we'll be able to take a favorite language after graduating high school.
But if a student choose English, he/she can take one more language as a second language in college.
Am I making sense? Any languages are available after high school.
All Japanese college students can learn favorite one.

@boyakkey I think he means what is the next most popular second language to learn.
So you say that all students must learn English, so of the students who choose to learn an additional language which of the European ones do most of them choose?

School education of foreign language in Japan is the only "English".
It is from middle school to high school. Selection of the "second foreign language" is, or special school, or you think that it is language faculty of the university.
Japan is a strong American influence, people who thought, "foreign language = English" is very large.
So, you'll say when you talk to foreigners and when you go to a foreign country and "because I can not English." They have a little prejudice.
日本において外国語の学校教育は「英語」だけです。
中学校から高校までです。「第二外国語」の選択は、特別な学校か、もしくは大学の外国語学部だと思われます。
日本はアメリカの影響力が強いため、「外国語＝英語」と思っている人が非常に多いです。
ですので、外国に行くときや外国人と会話するときに「私は英語ができないから」と言うでしょう。彼らには少し偏見があります。
