Nishi-waseda, Ordinary/checking account, Okada Risa


Explanation:
Nishi-waseda, Ordinary/checking account, Okada Risa

Be careful, this is not a complete bank information. The bank name is missing, Nishi-waseda is probably the branch name, and of course you would need the account number but I guess you have that.
Okada Risa is the name on the account.

Nishi-Waseda, Savings Account, Risa Okada


Explanation:
西早稲田　Nishi-Waseda...The name of a place in Tokyo, Japan.
Not a bank name but probably a branch location.
普通口座　Futsuu Kouza...Savings Account. Futsuu indeed means regular or ordinary, but Futsuu (Yokin) Kouza means savings account when talking about bank accounts in Japan. (A checking account would be touza yokin kouza.)
岡田理紗 Okada Risa (can be spelled Lisa instead)... Okada is her family name, and Risa (or Lisa) is her first name.
She is probably the one who receives the money you send to this account.
