Jani808,
This is how it would look using standard Romanization and without the broken Caps Lock key...
XXX GS Komagawa
X-XX-X Nishi-Imagawa
Higashi-Sumiyoshi-ku
Osaka-shi, Osaka-fu
JAPAN

Dave in Saitama's version is good. It is by far the easiest to read and the Romanization is closer to the actual pronunciation of the place names. Avoid using all capitals when writing addresses for Japan.
