lol literally oit of money buying gifts. able to check bag near to the dollar...
anybody wanna piss on me for 50$?

What are some highlights for Kyushu?
Nagasaki? Saga? Kitakyushu? Fukuoka? Kagoshima? Miyazaki? Oh and what's the deal with the yatai in Fukuoka?

>>2870635
I once had an airline have their free carry-on limited to 7kg. I had a 10kg bag, that of course I had to check for 50 dollars. In light of all of this oil prices are a significant part of the cost for flights, and weight is a factor in determining how much fuel is used, why don't they give discounts to starving Ethiopians, and charge your obese mother 500 dollars extra. But seriously, they're a bunch of lying conniving rat pieces of shits, and I'm glad the tourism industry is going to take a hit.

>>2870642
i have just enough to check my 75 DOLLAR BAG. of course 60 people on the flight will weigh more than it and i do. and ofcourse their small bags will be dense with stupid rocks and anything else they bought, i just am ipaet im out of money to buy gifts for people. i feel like a fuck up. im tired of walking around and seeing happy go lucky faces soaking in all the shit that never happened that theyll brag to people they hate back home that they did.
yeah im glad tourism will take a hit, travel shouldnt be for any ecconomic class or "reasoned" individual, it should be only for people who feel some sort of calling to do it... im not even sure i like it fully, but when im back home it feels like it finished marinating i guess...

>>2870642
>7 kg carry-on limit
Pretty standard for poorfag airlines

Is it true Asian pussy is sideways? :o

>>2870660
no its just usually 14 hours ahead or something like that, check the tinezone her period might be a day sooner than usual.

Has anyone managed to successfully book via ikyu.com English site? I'm trying to book a nice ryokan, but the confirmation SMS never comes. I tried all kinds of number forwarding sites and such, but no luck.
I also emailed them, the response was pretty much - "Yeah we know it doesn't work sometimes, it can't be helped."
The ryokan is a good 100 Eur cheaper than on booking.com.

>>2870712
Booked a place in November just fine.

For my next Japan trip I'm planning on visiting Hokkaido to see peak Winter snowfall, then make my way down as the cherry blossoms start to appear. Would probably stay for 45-50 days. What's the ideal period to visit to achieve this? February to March?

>>2870726
sakuras generall late mar early april in tokyo so take that as you will. the further south you go the better chance youll see sakura in march

>>2870726

Yes.

Call us "senpai"

Stayed on all my travels on Ueno/Asakusa, how's the west side? considering Nakano/Ikebukuro

>>2870651
Don't worry, no one will talk to you. They're not really an outgoing bunch, unless you get some beer in them, but they're at work or going to work half the time.

Best things to do in Tokyo? Unique cafes ect?

Is Kabukicho really that bad a place to book for hotels? I know the usual info about the place, but I'm curious more than anything, as it throws an overwhelming majority of booking results online. It can't be that bad is it?

Anyway, my top pick to be my Tokyo headquarters is Ueno.

>>2870803
its very busy, touristy, a bit loud, not super family friendly as its a place littered with bars clubs drunk people touts etc. probably the sketchiest place you could book, but i think you'd be fine to be honest.

wont lie im very excited to leave.

>>Unique cafes
I only walked by and didn't try it, but this looks unique to me

>>2870813
Whatta fucking loser. Going to a cafe past noon will ruin everything. With the half-life of caffeine, you will still have some in your system, disrupting your ability to goto bed before 10pm, so that you'll be able to wake up before 5am in the Land of the Rising Sun. If you want to be a degenerate and not get any sleep, goto Southeast Asia.

>>2870813
>Get lost in it
How does one safely get lost in a city? My tokyo plans are good, but osaka's got guaranteed days with no plans.
Can you get lost in the grid of osaka?

>>2870816
It's a figure of a speech anon. I mean just take a day, pick a part of Tokyo and wander around.

Anyone know where i can get a playlist of the train station jingles/melodies?
There's a couple on youtube but they are 15 years old and i dont remember hearing any of them. And they are missing stations too.

Ride around on a bike-sharing bike

I just found out apparently Nishinari is a shithole. Is it really that bad? Way too late to change my accomodation there but it was so cheap, surely it can't be that bad compared to average Western inner city...
...I won't get mugged at night on my way to the hotel, right? Got to walk a few minutes.

I'll be spending a night in Numazu in mid April, and gotta be in Tokyo the next evening. Anything worth visiting between them other than Hakone? Or do I just go to Hakone?

>>2870903
You're fucked, make sure you write your will before you go

>>2870903
I'm staying in Nishinari in the summer, kek.
Apparently there's lots of day drinkers and homeless but its still not dangerous. I guess we will find out.

>>2870907
I feel like a single day in Hakone without staying would be very rushed. Trains/buses stop running kind of early and it's all quite inconvenient since it's spread out.

Fujinomiya is a pretty good nearby city for a good view of Mt Fuji. Has a nice shrine there. Shiraito Falls are also fairly close and can be nice to see.

Atami is another neat nearby city. Very 1980s in style. Lots of hot springs and a great art museum, MOA Museum of Art.

Can anyone recommend a nice (and spacious) hotel in Osaka? Can be on the more expensive side but nothing too crazy ($300+/n)

>>2870903
You won’t encounter robberies, violence, or widespread drug use. The most you’ll come across are harmless old men who’ve had a few drinks in the middle of the day. Female backpackers even walk around at night without a care in the world. But if you point a camera at them, they might get angry.

im going to japan with my family for the first time, i dont want to offend anyone and none of us know the language, gonna read op to learn but im quite nervous or im i overthinking things too much?

>>2870799
The main beats are: 1. Shibuya: Tokyo's Time Square, neon, shops, restaurants. Meiji shrine.
2. Shinjuku: Shibuya's seedier cousin. If a foreigner approaches you and tells you to go anywhere, it's a scam.
3. Asakusa: Old Town, big temple.
4. Harajuku/Omote-Sando: Fashion district.
5. Ginza: Used to be a bigger deal in the past than it is now. Still has shops.
6. Yokohama: Chinatown.
7, Roppongi, it's a shittier version of Shinjuku IMO, but has nightclubs if you're into that. Avoid any bar a foreigner tries to take you to (it's a scam.)

>>2870968
Your over thinking things but it's understandable because traveling to a place you dont know the language for the first time is always stressful

But genuinely you don't need to worry. Legit almost every sign in Tokyo is in english, you'll all be fine.

>>2870968
pretty much all signs are bilingual unless you go really into the country. i know a lot of people that went that didnt know any JP and had a great time.
knowing the basics of sorry and thank you go a really long way though. and basic ettiquete. ie no speaking on trains, not blocking sidewalks, being mindful of others

>>2870971
ginzas also chinatown. i will never forgive them for turning the high end place into a fucking zoo where people sit on sidewalks all day and smoke

Should I make base in Osaka or Kyoto?
Im planning day trips to Nara, Himeji and Wakayama. Which one is more affordable and tranquil?

How would I go about meeting japanese when I go there this summer? I want to couchsurf there, but doubt I will find anyone willing to host me for the full two weeks.

>>2870982
>tranquil
kyoto

>>2870982
I'm partial to Osaka, but I like a little concrete with grit and grime. Nishinari was mentioned it's a backpacker hub because it's so cheap. Kyoto will probably be more quiet and tranquil, but IDK about affordable. It comes with a slightly more uptight culture, and less laidback vibe I got in Osaka. YMMV.
>>2870968
Sumimasen is kind of like excuse me. Covers a lot of bases if you feel like you are bothering someone.

>>2870984
Tobita shinchii, meet me behind the ramen shop any night after 11pm, youll know the one when you see it

Going to Japan with 6 others (yes yes I know) and we'll go to Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and a daytrip to Nikko, Kawaguchiko and maybe Nara. One of us has ordered all our tickets and shit, which I'm generally grateful for. He got filtered because of the confusing UIs on the official sites so he used Klook instead even though I didn't recommend it, but because of the small price difference I didn't make a big deal out of it.
Today he told me that he plans on doing the following for public transport, so excluding the limited express trains/shinkansen:
>Arrive at airport in Tokyo, buy multiple metro passes for however long we are going to be there
>Kyoto: again, city bus & metro passes for however long we are going to be there
>Osaka: city bus & metro passes for however long we are going to be there, but he wasn't sure yet if we could skip public transport and simply walk everywhere instead.
All of these passes are valid for 24h/48h/72h each, so we would need to buy multiple passes for all cities.
Meanwhile my idea:
>Arrive at airport in Tokyo, buy a (green) suica card and fill it up. If not available at the airport then get it at a station.
>Occasionally fill it up at a station if needed
Assuming that my idea is makes more sense, how can I convince this retard to do things my way? I already told him about the suica card but I can't seem to change his mind.

>>2871000
you'll be fine with an ic card but don't try to convince him if he's intractable, just tell him not to get you passes

>>2870917
Candeo: The Tower in Umeda. Rooms are 24m2 by default. Free access to their gym (single cable machine, dumbbells, no barbells), and their open air bath.
A small inconvenience is the lack of microwave or vending machine. If you want a snack, you'll have to wait for the elevator down to ground floor (their lobby is on the 17th)

>>2871000

I mean the suica basically is a metro pass that covers all those areas, and with no time limit, you could try that angle. Your mate probably thinks he is getting a good deal by getting those crappy 2 or 3 day local passes and if he's done the research and he's the one who's "in charge", he's probably unlikely to change his mind.

If you're travelling in a group i'd say it's better to just go with the flow and do what everyone else does, even if it's not optimal. You don't want to be the odd one out or everyone else is gonna get shitty with you (even though you're right). It will be a pain when they want to take some local tourist bus that is covered under the regional metro pass but that doesn't take suica or whatever.

>>2870968
If you're going to big major cities like Osaka or Tokyo, you can and your family can access anything you want without having to interact with a single soul. Places like the convenience store and small diners are trending towards automation - you just order something and pay with a smart touch screen (they have language options)
When in doubt, stand back a bit and use google translate to plan what you do

>>2871011
>>2871000
What's wrong with those timed metro passes? They're very cost-effective (you should still carry a suica anyway).
Not to mention if you suddenly need to take a dump. You can trust the bigger train stations to have clean toilets.

>>2871014
i should add if you look really confused, someone will probably help you. happened to me when the station lockers confused me. if youre respectful, people will appreciate it

>>2871011
that's true, if they take some retarded tour bus you might run into issues
>>2871016
tokyo one doesn't cover a bunch of lines and they aren't much (or any) cheaper depending on your itinerary. you don't want to be constantly checking who runs which line or changing routes to get your money's worth when you can use google maps without thinking about it
over a sample size of weeks in those 3 cities doing tourist shit I spent ~4k a week taking public transit like a madman, tons of transfers, express train to the airport, wasting money a few times, vending machine purchases, etc. even if they applied to every trip I took I would have lost money on passes, and they didn't at all
public transit is so cheap, it's not worth the hassle

>>2870819
My mother absolutely hated the jingle from Tokyo station. It's so incredibly loud and ruins an otherwise nice station.

Does anyone have an opinion on Asakusa Rockza?

Japan is full of fat white and brown foreigners no matter where you go. People litter, make a mess, and it's just awful. So long as you're not trying to force trash into the recycling bins outside (anything with a round hole is for bottles and cans only), you'll be better than 99% of tourists.

>>2871083
I'm not walking 20km carrying a piece of plastic. I'll shove it into the plastic trash round hole, and your government come up with a way to sort it out, if it's truly a big deal. Your shame shit won't work on me. Capiche.

>>2871040
The Tokunai Pass can be a good value depending on your plans. ¥870 for unlimited JR in core Tokyo and station access too.

>>2871087
The best is the Climate Card. It's every bus and train in Seovl for 30 days and cost 62 thousand Won. That's basically a dollar a day, and you don't have to pay attention to which corporation owns what piece of infrastructure.

Just spotted a tourist in Shinjuku in full Peaky Blinders gear.

It was one of you guys, wasn’t it?

>>2870803
If you’re going with Kabukicho get one of the hotels at the northern edge, close to Higashi Shinjuku station. You want to live on the outskirts, not right in the middle of degen city

I am staying in Shinjuku for 1 night for a layover. What can I do in 20 hours if I don't sleep? And is there any local restaurants recommendation?

>>2871141
First time in Japan? Anything in particular you want to see or eat?? Not sure if I personally can give any recommendations, but I'm sure that info would help others

>>2871141
>any local restaurants recommendation
Literally go and walk around outside and pop into a place without a line

>>2871141
Literally any sushi place is going to be better than what you can get outside Japan. I know there's some Ramen places in "Piss Alley" that are probably good. I miss gyudon/butadon and Coco Ichibanya the most.

>>2871085
The real workaround is simply find a 7/11 or other convenience store. There's one on every block. They always have trash cans. Public trash cans were banned after the sarin gas attacks.

>>2871154
Bunch of lies. The municipal governments were just looking to cut cost without generating more revenue by taxing individuals. People nodded their heads for whatever reason. I'm not japanese. Don't lie to me. I hate lies.

Thanks anons, I'll just get a suica card and maybe I can convince some of the others to also get one and do things the easy way. If not, I might just also get the Tokyo metro passes and do things their way in Tokyo. I'll see if the Kyoto and Osaka ones are worth the hassle based on how things go in Tokyo and if not I'll just use the suica card in Kyoto and Osaka. Not planning on taking some retarded tourist bus or anything special so I assume that an IC card will work. Another nice thing about IC card is the fact that I can also use it in konbini, vending machines, etc so I'll make use of it one way or another. I also consider it a nice souvenir and I've read that the penguin design is going to change soon so I want to get the penguin one before they change it.

>>2871162
thanks for the detailed medical advice, raj. sorry to hear you failed med school. but please, just learn to pretend to be a first worlder and throw away trash like a normal person. or else just stay in your garbage dump of youre gonna sperg out like that. thanks

Yes, it’s my first time. I liked most Japanese food I tasted overseas. Ramen, sushi, udon are all fine by me. But I would like to taste something more local and exotic which is not available outside of Japan.

Post-Covid, my understanding is most restaurants in Tokyo direct you to a QR code now to order. I don't know how it works. Failing that you can try to point at what you want on the menu and say "Kudasai" to order that. If you get tossed out of a restaurant (unlikely but I guess it could happen), just go to the next one. There are a shitload of restaurants in Tokyo.

ive never been turned down for being foreign. id genuinly be surprised if that happened in tokyo, outside of 'influencers' using clickbait
standing sushi bars ive been to you order via touchscreen. noodle places also via touchscreen. menus are bilingual. if its for some reason its an old school menu just point and say これをください
remember this is tokyo, businesses run on serving foreigners with low friction so i wouldnt sweat it. worst case, check google reviews and the english language reviews would say if theres any quirks

so, Im in my last rounds of adjustments to my Japan trip.
I'll be going to Tokyo (4 days), Osaka (4 days) with day trips to Nara, Himeji and Wakayama), Kyoto (3 days), Kanazawa (2 days), Takayama, Matsumoto, Nagano (all of them 1 day) and finally to Niigata ( 2 days).
I think its an okay if very turbulent trip, since i dont know when i'll come back i want to make the most out of it.
I tried to sneak a day in an onsen (like Kusatsu) but it requires a combination of various public transportations and the trip is already a mess of buses and trains.
hopefully it works out.

>>2871232
Sounds like it's pretty well researched. I had a friend visit for 1 week, and felt like it was too short. Tried to get them to extend, but they had work and other obligations. Spent some of the time battling jet lag, but they still had a blast. Enjoy your trip!

You sound like a Pro-Japan Weeb Force Redditor. While not often, it totally does happen here. Just last week a friend and I were turned away from a yakitori place in Shimbashi. As soon as he saw us, the kid at the front said, “Sorry, no foreigners.” We talked to him for a minute and said we speak Japanese & have lived in Tokyo for a long time. He thought about it for a minute, and said again, “Sorry, no foreigners. Master’s rule.” So, yes, it does happen. Maybe because there are a lot of tourists prowling around there now. Who knows.

where did you even get that from you fucking retard. last i checked reddit loves hating Japan because everyone there has a victim complex. sorry for liking the country i visit. im assuming you and your friend are just obvious jeets or something and it scares people. but everyone i knows never been turned down. city or the countryside. tourisms as bad there as ever.

Any bikefags here? I'm staying in Tokyo from April 5-10 and wouldn't mind getting out of the city to do some bike rental day trips. I wanted to use Hello Cycling or one of those but apparently it's hard/annoying without a JP phone number.

>but everyone i knows never been turned down. city or the countryside. tourisms as bad there as ever.

Who’s the fucking jeet, jeet? I guarantee I have lived in Japan longer & have traveled around the country far more extensively than you, and I’ve forgotten more izakaya than you’ve ever been to. The fact is, it does sometimes happen, and I don’t much care as it’s easy enough to find another place. Just because you and your faggot friends haven’t had the experience doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Maybe try going somewhere other than Ichiran, Torikizoku, and HUB.

Friends, I need your help.
When I was in Okinawa (around Churaumi Aquarium and that Ryukyuan model village) there was a drink in the vending machines that was like the nectar of the gods. It was non-carbonated, tropical, sugary, moderately sour. I don't remember if it was a strongly flavored tea or more of a sports drink.
I never saw it on the mainland but I've been going insane trying to find it, ChatGPT has been no help.
I remember the bottle said "proudly made in Okinawa" or something similar. May have been made by Orion but I'm not sure.
Any ideas?

>>2871262
I'd say cross off Kansai completely off your itinerary. Your list is busy enough as it is. You may as well come back another time to see Kyoto/Nara/Osaka exclusively and you can add Hiroshima to that list.

Personally...
>>Imperial palace
Forget about it unless there's something you absolutely need to see there, not worth the booking nor the queue
>>Tokyo Skytree
I'd say ditch that and go to Tokyo Tower instead. Even on a sunny day the views and photos from Skytree aren't that much better than Tokyo Tower. It also takes 1 whole hour to get up and down from there when you're only spending about 30 min there. Plus it's more expensive and you're forced to book in advance (otherwise you wait for the next time slot)
>>Shibuya Crossing
Probably worth it because if you're going to Shibuya you can do a lot of other stuff there so it's several birds with one trip. There's a Starbucks on one of the building overlooking the crossing that's good for photos - you can't miss it because you can see where all the tourist are taking photos from its windows

You might consider adding Enoshima to that list - but Enoshima itself can take almost a day.

>>2871262
>Train trip to Kyoto/Osaka/Nara and stay for 24 hours
one or all three
try plotting out a schedule yourself, accounting for the transit times and see what it comes to. either way, it's a lot of daytime excursions and not much at night

I'm currently in Japan, I won something but I need a Japanese address to claim it and have it sent to, to then send it to myself in the US. Anyone here know of a service like that?

I will say I was kicked out of 2 isakai in osaka and I has this strage experience in a oyster bar in tokyo I was trying to buy other people drinks for other people and the lady running place was refusing to let me do it so I just ate my oyster and drank my beer paid and left.

For the uninitiated he isn't talking about Isekai, he's talking about izakaya. I've been denied entry into bars before, but never kicked out of anywhere. I'm guessing the tolerance for foreign chicanery is going down these days.

So asking for advice. I have been to Japan once in my life where I pretty much spent 2 weeks going down from Sapporo to Hiroshima. I want to go again, potentially with a friend, for another 2 weeks staying in Tokyo with 2-4 days dedicated to Kyoto and Osaka. Any advice for best price to look at for airline if im flying out of LAX? Planning for around Mid-August.

>>2871337
Try Zipair. You can get it as low as 250 bucks.

>>2871339
I have never heard anything good about Zipair.

>>2871341
What is bad about it? It is not measuring up to Starlux and JAL but it's league and miles ahead of United, American or Delta. Zipair is my goto for the west coast, Jetblue for the east.

This is what I do. Carrying trash makes me vomit (I have sensitivity issues)

One time I wanted to throw out my protein shake but there was only a trash can specifically for the orange machine (pic related). It had a thin slit so you couldn't put bottles in it. Furthermore, there was a lock on the lid so you couldn't open it, as well as a sign stating that only orange cups could be thrown out. I crushed my protein shake and shoved it in the can anyways because fuck having to carry your trash around. Let the fucking orange company deal with that shit. It all goes to burnable anyways.

I’m at that age where I can no longer easily pull (attractive) nip women in their 20s and instead have to wingman for young whippersnappers and help build their confidence with women.

Spent 12 days in Tokyo (hotel was in Akihabara) at the end of January/beginning of February, and to say I loved it was an understatement. I did blow through ~1500 dollars (excluding flights and accommodation) but it was so worth it. Naturally, most of my money was spent in a Hard-off. I did find a fully working switch lite for about 50 dollars. The Japanese take cosmetic imperfections very seriously... Honestly could go back and do the same things all over again and still really enjoy myself.

What I did find strange is that a lot of stores don't open until 11 am.

Oh 23hour Sukiya, my beloved...

I went with Zipair from IAH to NRT. Sure you get what you paid for, but the fact you save a ton of money is worth it. And even flying out from LAX is far cheaper than flying out from IAH. If we had chosen other standard airlines, like 20% of our total money for the trip would have been spent only in the flights. My big recommendation is to bring a big water bottle (the biggest one you can buy), bring it empty to the airport and fill it there. Enjoy your trip.

I already said the things I'm nostalgic for, and would eat a lot are basically japanese fastfood. Sukiya, Yoshinoya for the gyudon, Matsuya for butadon, Cocoichibanya for Chicken katsu curry.
If you want a fine dining type deal, IDK. The kid wasn't lying. If a Japanese dude is cooking it, it's going to be good.

Was last in Nip in 2019.
How fucked is the place now? How many tourists will I have to deal with (not including myself)? How are the hostels these days? In 2019 I'd say it was an even split between Japanese and Gaijin, with places further south and towards Fukuoka being closer to 80% Japanese.
Won't be going to Hokkaido again, place was a dump.
Want to spend most of my time in Kyushu. I read/speak enough of the language to get by.
I don't have an itinerary, I don't see the point, I'll just book
I don't use social media and don't give a fuck about fomo and missing out on 'muh heckin experiences' as once you've seen one the rest are pretty much the same. I do like shrines, but mostly like the coastline in the country. Mountains are gay.
Might go back to Okinawa too, that place was very chill.

>>2871375
probably, ask at the counter for 'geri o yamete no kusuri' or something like that, I remember seeing them at most pharamcies at donki.
if not at donki, just do the same at any big building with a '薬' sing outside

>>2871191
Hmmmm ok. Maybe go to a conveyor belt sushi place? A similar experience might be difficult to find outside of Japan depending where you're from or tend to travel to, and the sushi there is pretty good when you consider the price. I usually go at least once whenever I visit and I've never had any issues with the bigger franchises like Kura Sushi. Order everything through a tablet too, so language barrier shouldn't be that big an issue.

As for ramen, I can't really give a specific recommendation but I do suggest avoiding Ichiran. Not that they're terrible, but I find them extremely overrated. Unless you REALLY want to experience their "solo eating experience" you see all the time in videos, I don't really see the point or appeal.

>some places don’t like to serve foreigners
Never ran into this on my trips to Japan. Granted I'm Japanese (Canadian) but I've traveled with people who weren't even asian and it's never come up. I think this mostly happens at izakayas and bars, which I've rarely gone to but again never was an issue for me.

>Also, is the Michelin guide legit?
I've used the guide a couple times before and my experience with it has always been great. Through the guide I managed to find a small but nice tempura place at Himeji away from the crowds so definitely wouldn't have found it on my own, and probably the best tempura I've ever had. Also found like a sushi/bar kind of place in Hiroshima that had offered an omakase meal starting from 10,000 yen and thought it was well worth it. I've never ate a Michelin starred place though, just the "recommended" ones on the list or the Bib Gourmand labelled ones. But obviously your mileage may vary, so best to do some research even if they're in the guide.

>>2871385
I don't get the sense many foreigners travel to Kyushu. Outside of Nagasaki being an Atom bomb site and Yakushima being the inspiration for Princess Mononoke, I dunno what other draws there are? Fukuoka has a ferry to South Korea and Miyazaki has surfing. I don't expect you'd be drowning in foreigners outside of those spots.

Just came back this week.

Granted i didn't go during peak season, Tokyo was totally liveable except Harajuku (which is the absolute worst place anyways) and Asakusa after 9am. I went to Asakusa around 8 am and it was still fine, very few people (picrel). But i came back around 10am and it was already unliveable.
Some parts of Shinjuku did seem seedy, but not with noggers, more with those homeless youth people are talking about i guess.

There was very few annoying tourists outside these areas (like couple dumb 20 year old bitches who thought they were special, or a few packs of "bros") but i found other tourists better than what i remember 10 years ago (where some other gaijins would have a death stare when crossing your path, like you were obsctructing their fantasy).

Once you go out of these zones, i didn't meet any western tourist at all, especially for anything artistic or culturally chalenging (Hokusai museum, Mori art museum...).
And once you go out of Tokyo itself (Odawara and a few other places), very few western tourists.

Also, i do speak some japanese, but in Tokyo itself, it's like they don't even want you to try. One old hotel clerk literally told me, "i see you're speaking japanese, please don't bother", kek.

In peak season, i guess the areas you picked will be fine. Like others have said, tourists just go to the same spots: Tokyo (and mainly Shibuya/Harajuku and Asakusa really), Kyoto and Osaka. And they all go eat at Sushiro at 12.

go to google. type "flights to tokyo" or wherever you want to land

click the "Show flights" tab on the google results page

you'll be taken to a new page where you can input your information. dates, location, prices, bags etc. The options at the lower half of the screen are the flights you can boo, it will show departing flights first. tinker with this page to see what your options are. You then pick a Departing flight and a Return flight by clicking them, and the final page will give you links at the bottom of the page to airline booking websites where you can make your purchase. other websites are skyscanner and kayak

you can also go to a travel agent in your city and they can do all of this for you

I had conveyor belt sushi outside of Japan before and it was from Kura also. The sushi was good but not exceptional like in proper restaurants. I also saw a lot of Japanese tweets mocking foreigners who think Kura is good so I want to know what they actually think is good.

Might go during tsuyu, but will probably just wait until the end of the year and go in the winter and stick around southern Honshu and Kyushu.
Glad to know it's not too pozzed outside of the major cities (yet). I know I'm contributing to the problem by going myself, but I'll try and be ethical about it.

>>2871481
The Hub has always been a pathetic JET/ALT microcosm of distilled 'I am not a gaijin foreigner, I'm a REAL gaikokujin JLPT N4 sugoi sugoi' shithole. Never understood the appeal of the place either. Would rather just go to McDonalds or a Lotteria.
I don't like being elitist about these things, but once you see a pattern of behaviour enough times it just wares you down.

>>2871472
>I also saw a lot of Japanese tweets mocking foreigners who think Kura is good so I want to know what they actually think is good.
Fuck's sake, no one thinks Kura is good. That said, there is a big Kura near my house and it is rammed with Japanese families and other Japs all the time. No foreigners except me, ever. I also go there with my family at least once a month. No one is under any illusion that it's good---it's what it is. Cheap, servicable, and easy.

>>2871533
>The Hub has always been a pathetic JET/ALT microcosm of distilled 'I am not a gaijin foreigner, I'm a REAL gaikokujin JLPT N4 sugoi sugoi' shithole.
Read that tortured sentence again. The fuck does that even mean? The HUB serves it's purpose. If you're with a few people and just want to drink and not eat, it works. The vast majority of HUB bars are filled with Japanese only. The only ones that are filled with tourists are the ones you'd expect in Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Ikebukuro. Again, they serve a purpose. But regurgitate your retarded meme if it makes you feel better.

>>2871481

Izakaya is like a tavern with edamame and Kura age and other kind of shareable food. I guess it depends on the Izakaya what you will get, I've seen people eat fugu at them.
Chicken skewer places are yakitori restaurants. They're kind of their own thing. But maybe an izakaya would serve them. Honestly, I didn't eat at izakaya very often, usually with coworkers.

>>2871540
>Honestly, I didn't eat at izakaya very often, usually with coworkers.
Why are you gay?

Played Natsumon recently and are the guest houses a thing? What are they called, and are they worth checking out over standard hotels? Seems like a comfy way to have a base for exploration.

>>2871541
I was too busy eating delicasies at the local Makudo.

>>2871543
AirBnB is a thing. I've never played Natsumon, I guess you are referring to Ryokan. Yeah they're pretty cool.

>>2871540
How do you differentiate between a yakitori place and an izakaya? Imo an izakaya is more of a place where you order lots of little dishes and drinks, daid dishes generally including yakitori, edamae, other fried things (oysters, octopus, etc...), that tofu with the bonito flakes, and maybe some sushi/sashimi etc...

And a yakitori place would be what? Only selling yakitori? No non yakitori items on the menu?

>>2871548
The Kanji on the sign will be different. They both serve similar functions, late night eats with beer. But they have slightly different vibes. Izakaya you're indoors, probably sitting on the ground, shoes off, gathered around a table eating a variety of food. Yakitori can be open-air, on a barstool, open-flamed grills cooking all parts of the chicken, including feet and hearts. Don't think they serve anything besides Chicken.

>>2871546
In the game it's called the Ashitabi Guest House. The main character stays there along with a circus troupe for about a month. I don't know the actual term for it, but it seemed really neat and comfy.

>>2871550
Idk mang maybe youre talking about super fancy izakayas, been to plenty where you dont take your shoes off, w/ outdoor seating, quasi-outdoor (plastic curtain) enclosed smoking area outside the main seating area, or even the streetside standing only ones

I dont think ive been to a single place that ONLY serves chicken, definitely places that were much more skewer (or osaka fried skewer) oriented by the menu, but theyd always have offal, quail eggs, horse, pork and beef skewers too

Ok, I found a video of that. Don't think I've stayed at one in Japan, but it looks like they're a thing. A lot of old-fashioned stuff like this is kinda fading. You might find them in urban areas under the name Share house too, but they're often as not in a modern-style house.

There is a reason why I specifically said "pretty good when you consider the price". Of course you'll get better sushi from an actual sushi restaurant, but I was also taking into consideration of the pricing, the unique dining experience, the variety of types of sushi, and that these places are usually English friendly. But yeah, if you're already been to one then I wouldn't recommend it.

>>2871548
>>2871550
>>2871557
Right, just to be clear, it's very unlikely a yakitori place would ONLY sell yakitori. It is the dish they will specialize though, so obviously it'll be their main focus.

As for the differences between an izakaya or yakitori place, outside of their menus they can be very similar in terms of the restaurant itself

>>2871575
of course we're going to akihabara. Anything neat to do there?

The 'major chains' mostly carry the same fotm or "classics" (eva, idolshit, etc...) merch, but when you go a block or 2 west, or start heading north towards ueno, thats where you'll find a lot more hole in the wall joints or consignment resellers with much much more variety; especially great if you're looking for merch from that one show you really liked X years ago that isnt called sword art online, dal etc...

I mean theres anime stuff there, i think a lot is fujo/bl etc... oriented, but there's also regular anime stuff; more or less the same type of stuff you can see at big box chains all across japan, that said, ikebukuro is definitely worth checking out on days with shitty weather (brutal heat/humidity, rain, snow) as you walk around for hours in climate control through the megamall, also an aquarium, some observation deck, plenty of nice food too all over the place, and a nearby chinatown; bukuro is nice, not a "anime destination" imo but a place worth visiting if you're gonna be in tokyo, just keep it in your back pocket for a day where it's shitty outside and you want an indoors backup plan

Is there any fun event in Tokyo in mid-late April like the Craft Sake Week?

Planning to do 3 nights in Hakone/ Mount Fuji area with the family in Middle/Late May. I'm thinking of spending the first 2 nights in Hakone, then a night around Mount Fuji, and we will rent a car. Is 3 nights ample time and does it make sense to visit Hakone first then head closer towards Mount Fuji?

The plan is to take a train from Tokyo to Hakone, and then rent a car from a major station in the area for the trip.

>>2871663
yeah it can work. just fyi a big part of hakone is the loop to owakudani and the boat. you dont need a car for that, if anything itll be a burden. i think 1.5/2 days is definitely necessary for hakone, just so you can do the loop and have a nice time at the ryokan

I dont know how you guys have the money to go to Japan i dont know if you are rich spoiled or if you simply have the money from working hard i probably wont go to Japan until 2030 im poor and by then i will be financially prepared many of you dont go to Japan for the sights or to buy video games many of you go to get a Japanese girlfriend and thats fine i wont lie i plan to do the same but i need to prepare myself physically mentally and financially but i think other Asian women are just as beautiful as Japanese women Chinese Korean Taiwanese and Hong Kong women are just as beautiful if i cant do it in Japan i will do it in one of those countries but it wont be until the beginning of the next decade or the end of this one

this isn't /biz/ and I am not a CFA, but if you are young, it is more sensible to borrow and invest in the stock market than a mortgage or spending it on hobbies/relationship. If you fail, you can just declare bankruptcy. The average homebuyer is in the 50s so it's not like you need the credit score anyway.

>>2871688
Awful fucking advice.
>dude you can just declare bankruptcy
yeah, and they will consider you a dangerous investment for the rest of your life so you will probably never ever get a loan from any bank again even if you need it.
Not to mention you have to make monthly payments with interest. Even if you were inside trading doing what you suggested is a huge risk.
If you're a student you might get away with it using student loans since usually the interest doesn't start accruing until you're done with your studies. You can just put the money in a high interest savings account and pay everything back as soon as you finish studying and be guaranteed free money but it won't be some life changing amount either way.
You on the other hand are essentially encouraging people to take up a loan to gamble.
Absolutely insane.

Yeah that's legit. You pay now so you lock it in, no backsies. The hotel ideally wants their rooms to be occupied all the time, so they're offering a cheaper deal to ensure that, because an empty room's sitting there not being deployed to earn.

>>2871691
Your 20s and 30s are the most productive decades of your life. If you don't invest then, it is already too late.
And investing is in no way gambling. It is the only remaining path to wealth left. The S&P has more than 2x in the last 5 year. Even assuming worst case scenario, you borrow at the peak 8% interest rate, you still won big. On the other hand, everyone who took a mortgage for even 5-6% interest rate see their houses mostly flat or even down. I am sorry you missed out, but the best time was then, the second best is now.

>yeah, and they will consider you a dangerous investment
No, everything is wiped clean after 7 years. It's a free out of jail card that is best used when you are young and do not need the credit score. Time in the market always beat timing in the market. You are never going to make it if you just throw away your best 2 decades.

>high interest savings account
yeah why not just give away your money to bank which doesn't pay you enough interest to make up for inflation, while they use your money to make 10 times the interest they pay you. Might as well burn your money for warmth.

>>2871699
Past growth is no indication of future growth. Investing in the stock market, even in global indexes which is arguably the safest possible play, is still gambling. Doubly so if you're taking up a loan to do it which you have to service for the duration of the investment.
I'm almost 40 and have been investing since I was in my teens.

>>2871699
>your money
It's not YOUR money, retard. You're advicing people to take up a LOAN.

>>2871701
>LOAN
That's exactly what I said. If the market crashes, he is young and has nothing to be garnished. It's no difference from taking out a mortgage to pay for a house.

>>2871700
Yes I know past performance does not predict the future. But that's the risk he will have to take if he wants to escape the underclass. I know we are at the end of the cycle and stock valuation is all time high and everything is indicating a crash. I know there is a lot of selling pressure from the pension funds and boomers needing their cash back. Yet it is even worse not investing because cash is even more worthless. Not to mention the Social Security fund is insolvent in the nest 6-8 years. Are you really betting on the Federal government to fix the budget? Are you really betting on them not printing money? Everything is bad, you have to pick the least bad

>>2871702
>least bad is guaranteeing you end up filing for bankruptcy in your youth

>>2871702
Your argument wouldn't sounds so absurd if you were atleast willing to admit that you're gambling with your future.
What you're painting the situation as is basically a coinflip of
>heads I win, tails I declare bankruptcy
but the situation will actually end up being "heads I maybe win if I'm very lucky and even then I only win a relatively small percentage or, tails I deal with years of financial restriction and even risk being denied debt relief or even accused of taking out a loan in bad faith or straight up trying to defraud a bank”
Fyi, the fines you'd get in the worst case scenario don't expire.

Your argument is LITERALLY "you should gamble on maybe seeing a slight return on investment at the risk of becoming an actual literal wageslave for most of your adult life."

Your best case scenario is not worth the risk even in the slightest, no matter how old you are. If anything it's worse if you're young because you'll be spending the "most productive years of your life" as you put it, simply working minimum wage because anything you earned above that would go to debt collectors and then struggling for years to even get a phone plan set up let alone opening a bank account, getting a credit card or taking a loan for something necessary.

Your advice is insanely shitty and I hope you reflect on this situation and consider never giving people such shitty advice again because someone might actually be dumb enough to take it.

>>2871712
Not that anon but simply investing money in term deposit is usually not the optimal way to deploy your resources as the money's buying power will reduce faster than it grows in the bank.
You're definitely right though that 4chan of all places should not be the place to seek financial advise. He's better off speaking with a professional he trusts face to face.

>>2871716
I'm not arguing in favor of investing exclusively in a savings account. I'm saying it's better thank taking out a loan and risking your entire youth worth of work and free time for the chance at "winning" a percentage of the loan you took in potential returns.
At least with a high interest saving account you know how much your returns will be and you can act accordingly. In the stock market it can be twice that or thrice if you're particularly lucky but it can also be half that and you end up losing money in addition to the money you've paid servicing the loan until that time. It's an insane "investment strategy" even if you did it at 10 years old.

It's also founded on the false assumption that you only have the two options of "either be poor or take an insane risk where if you lose you pretty much guarantee you'll stay poor for the rest of your life."

I've been wanting to go for ten years and I finally visited for the first time in January at 34. I don't make shit for money just a humble gaijin sushi chef at a restaurant.

>>2871729
Whats bein a sushi chef like? Is the whole meme about not letting you touch the rice until youve been doing it for 50 years or whatever real? Do you know how to spot "sushi grade" fish at a glance? Is it "trickier than it looks?" (From the perspective of a layman, it really just sounds like... cutting fish, ive cut fish before, i used to be a butcher [we had fish too, someone could say they want a pound of salmon or something and i could eyeball and cut em a nice big filet or however many steaks within .05lb, that took some practice. Or filleting whole fish cleanly etc...] i never tried make sushi. But i always had the gut feeling it couldn't be that hard, its just like... cutting fish) what are the finer nuances to it?

>>2871735
I work at a place in the States so its not real sushi at all. We dump shit into norimaki, cover it in mayo, tare, even tempura fry whole rolls. However, its not difficult, its essentially just line cooking. They don't make you study the rice for ten years or force you to make the tamago (it comes frozen) before letting you touch a fish. You've got the hardest part down, breaking down whole fish. The rest of it is just dumping ingredients into nori and making sure its rolled tight ( which is tricky at first ) and making sure you have the correct amount of rice on the nori. Cutting fish into sashimi or nigiri is easier than breaking down a whole fish. The reason why its a harder line cooking job is because everything is made to order, there's no stash of ten California rolls in the cooler. A lot of people who are experienced line cooks can't handle 4 straight hours on a sushi bar line because you're in public in front of the guests and you have to be efficient instead of just fast.

>>2871735
Also "sushi grade" fish is a meme. Everything has to be frozen once to be sold raw. Obviously there's different quality of fish but freshness is more important than the super high quality whole blue fin. We'd just get tuna loin or salmon skin on filet, or half himachi frozen. Recently we've been getting frozen saku blocks from the grocery store but I find the texture disgusting, its so spongey but the customer doesn't notice or care.

It's not necessarily true that the fresher the sushi topping, the better; depending on the type of fish, some are better when aged. Proper bleeding for each type of fish is also important. You must not damage the fish’s muscle tissue with careless cutting. It’s not just a matter of using raw fish; some sushi toppings require techniques such as marinating. There are also fish that become suitable for sushi after being simmered or boiled.
That’s why no Japanese person would try to make anything other than makizushi at home

im going to japan for about three weeks at the beginning of april and I have almost fuck all planned other than where im going to be staying while im in tokyo, how fucked am I? never travelled alone before

>>2871972
why do you guys keep posting stuff like "I have a trip, I have something I need to do before the trip, I have time to do it but haven't started yet, how fucked am I"
what am I supposed to tell you that you don't already know you should be doing, go solve the problem!
look stuff up on japan guide, google "thing you're interested in japan," put shit into a google doc and figure it out

How much should I budget for a month trip to tokyo? Looks like the flight + rent is going to be about $3300. Is $1700 reasonable for the rest?

>>2871974
fwiw i managed to cover all my expenses and going to arcades everyday just with my monthly neetbux. you can spend an unlimited amount of money in tokyo though

>>2871974
what do you want to do

>>2871974
400-700 usd a week, based on how much extra stuff you want to spend on(tickets, shopping etc)

>>2871974
Yes 1700 is enough as long as you arent shopping like a retard everyday. Itll cover transit, attractions and food. BUT if you start taking shinkansens to butfuck nowhere for day trips youll run out of money in less than a week

You can easily live off of 1000 or even 500 for a month, but like anon said you can also spend an infinite amount of money if you go full retard on your hobbies

Just exploring Ryogoku, the home of sumo, takes more than a day. Plus, the Edo-Tokyo Museum is finally reopening on March 31. When there are no official tournaments, you can enter the Sumo Museum for free. Many sumo stables are concentrated here, and some even allow visitors to watch morning practice. There are also plenty of chanko restaurants run by former sumo wrestlers. You’ll find clothing stores catering specifically to people with physiques comparable to those of sumo wrestlers. The Hokusai Museum is also nearby. The super sentō “Yuasobi” has a last check-in at 11:00 PM, but you can stay until 8:30 AM.

I was in the neighbothood two weeks ago, so i tried to find the museum but i couldn't find the entrance of the museum itself, that thing is as big as a neighborhood itself. I couldnt figure where the stables were supposed to be either.
+ they had a Capcom e-sport tournament or some shit.
When i asked to enter, the doorman (or doorwoman) told me i had to book online. The whole thing was weird, i just left.

Honestly, if you just like Urban exploring then you are set. If you want to be a shut-in, you are set unless you're in a hostel. Which leads next to part, if you want to be social you are set if you are staying at one of those. Tokyo is as expensive or as cheap as you want it to be. You can literally live off conbini onigiri, karaage, and beer. You can crash in a capsule hotel. There are no rules.

I have a trip to Osaka coming up in a few weeks. I've already been a couple times before, all the touristy stuff (USJ, castle, aquarium, etc) is done and dusted. Any particularly interesting and/or degen nightlife stuff you guys can recommend? Something more interesting than just Tobita, maybe a bar or club or just a venue with a cool concept or something?

bored af in tokyo at night , im too autistic to go in bars by myself. should have stayed in a hostel ffs

First time in tokyo. I’ve had several nips say I "walk like japanese" and the nigerian touts in roppongi and shinjuku havent said a word to me in 3 weeks even though i’m european. Feels good man

>>2872306
Live music venues is perfect for people like you. If you dont hit it off with anyone you can just chill and enjoy the music.

Ruby Room in Shibuya is full of japanese people. Bauhaus in Roppongi is full of very friendly foreigners

>>2872306
>too autistic to go in bars by myself. should have stayed in a hostel
Please elaborate, not autistic myself but id think bars would be easier for the noncommital nature, you can just... leave if you're not feeling it, while at the hostel you're kinda stuck with randos for better or worse?

Also you can always buy the bartender a beer and talk to them

>>2872269
Shinsekai for the kushikatsu and vibes.
Dotonbori is an obvious one with its Takoyaki is near the entertainment district with their comedy clubs (not much use if you don't speak Japanese) and pachinko parlors. Amemura has some rock venues and music stores. The Shinsaibashi area in general is cool. Dendentown is the electronics district.Tennoji has a zoo and temple complex.
Minoh park is a good day-time activity if you missed it. A paved hike to a waterfall that feels like you're in the cover of Secret of Mana.
Sorry I don't remember names of specific restaurants, I wouldn't really shell out for food that wasn't yakiniku much.
Also Koshien is the mecca of baseball in Japan if you want to catch a game there. The Orix Buffaloes play in a stadium if you'd prefer that.

>>2872311
Are there still Nigerians in Roppongi? I heard that after the police cracked down hard following complaints from the embassies, they all moved over to Shinjuku.

Japanese people are mean dude. That's how they keep their society from falling apart. The words ending in "-phobic" don't exist in their conception of reality. If you tried to explain fatphobia to a Japanese person hopefully they would go back to expelling foreigners from their island. Either lean into the attention or stop whining about it.

>>2872386
Lean into, by telling them off in basic English, a language they learn for 12 years in school. Imagine how shameful you'd feel, learning math for a decade, and couldn't even do pre algebra.

>>2872392
It's not that they can't, they really just don't want to. There was a Japanese lady that wrote about this, she was the younger sister in a family who moved back to Japan when they were in elementary school. She kept her skills up and is still fluent. Her older brother lost all of his English ability.

>>2872393

The same reason most Romans and Greeks wouldn't study the languages of barbarians. They don't really need anything from another civilization. The only reason they interact with foreigners at all is because the Industrial Revolution forced their hand. Ironically the rallying cry of the Meiji Restoration was "Revere the emperor, expel the barbarians!" They thought they were going to get rid of foreigners by kicking out the Shogun. They even burned Buddhist temples because it was a foreign religion.

>>2872399
You just proved why it's important to know the lingua franca of the world. Their Emperor today knows English. They should follow suit.

Should I stay in Akibahara I'm taking my younger brother on a trip to Japan as a reward for honors he got during graduation. I normally stayed in Ueno or Asakusa. My bro and myself are into anime and shit, but like it's not hard at all to use the train so I'm wondering if I should bother trying to make it close.

I'm in Japan like twice a year this is his first time if that matters

>>2872481
tbqh akiba doesnt really have much of a nightlife and stuff closes earlier there than the surrounding wards so there's no point in paying the weeb tax instead of just staying in ueno/asakusa/sumida

Is it just me or is Asakusa is rather touristed and the restaurants are expensive? I thought this was supposed to be a more affordable/working class area of Tokyo.

>>2872480
It's been illegal there forever, same with Thailand. It's a bit shameful the government doesn't do anything about it. It makes it hard for me to follow other rules.

>>2872481
I stayed there last time and I don't think I would recommend it, Akiba is close enough to get to it from most places its not a long commute and you kind of take away from being actually going there for the day.
Plus being on the Yamanote, seeing everything come into view and hearing that

Have you ever been to Japan? A lot of cold approach (nanpa) happens and women are more open to it than many other countries. And if some woman gets upset so what, why are you white knighting for Japanese women anon

Good question. Because when I walk around in shorts when it's 55 degrees, Japanese "men" ask me if I'm cold. And they force girls to wear skirts to school. Someone has to wake these faggots up from the err in their thinking.

Japan has the same view of prostitution as it had 200 years ago as in "it's fine as long as it's contained and my daughter isn't doing it." The anti-prostitution laws only exist to punish tachinboes and other common hoes who are a public nuisance.

I've been to the country once already but want anons' opinions on this itinerary in January after New Years:

>Tokyo - 1 day after landing (2 nights) just for a chill pace
>Kansai - 2 days (2 nights) just for Himeji I don't really care about Nara, Kyoto, or Osaka

>Shikoku
>~10 days
>main focus is ritsurin garden and otsuka art museum
>rest of trip is chilled out self-directed sightseeing

>back to Tokyo for 1-3 days, counting day I leave


Is Shikoku real "nobody speaks English" country or if I stay in the tourist spots will it all be cool? Also opinions on Ritsurin or other places like that in January? It won't really be snowy so it'll just be grey and rainy but I actually like that weather.

>>2872607
Why don't you just run a homeless shelter, dude? That's literally what you're talking about.

>>2872614
Only if its exclusively for cute japanese neet girls

>>2872609
Shikoku is an interesting choice. I will say I really enjoy the region. Is it less English speaking than other regions of Japan, it's kind of like asking if it's wetter than other parts of the Ocean. Shikoku gets memed on in Japan for being the most inaka of the inaka because it's inaccessible by bullet train. IMO that's probably overblown a bit. There are people who can speak English, but like most of Japan you'll probably be better off counting on people not being able to. That's what Google translate is for. Ritsurin Garden is probably busiest in the Spring and Fall. There are a few English speaking tour guides there, but you may need to coordinate with them somehow. I happened to just know one. It's done on a volunteer basis. Bar Amazon in Takamatsu and Ingrid's in Tokushima have owners who speak English. Marugame's cool. Kochi is awesome. Ehime is cool. Those are kinda the spots I know. Obviously lots of mountainous remote stuff going on too. I really am more of an expert on Kansai and Tokyo.

Grim future for Japan. Just last year, you could still stay at a capsule hotel and get quality sleep, if you could stomach hard as rock thin mattresses. People respected others, and acted like ninjas. Now it's nonstop noise. And it ain't foreigners.

>remembering the time I ran down a mountain because of a bee and yelled about a big ass boar up ahead to any tourist I came across while running
Jspsn really was kino...

Why does every westerner who's lived longer than a year in japan have soulless eyes?

The mattresses in capsule hotels might be thinner than those in regular hotels, but I’ve never found them too hard to sleep on.
