StabMasterArson posted:Will be staying in Tokyo for 10 days next month, our apartment is in Ikebukuro. Can anyone recommend some places to check out or avoid around there? Is it worth getting a 7-day train pass? We'd like to check out Akihibara and Harajuku etc but not sure if the passes cover that. Am I going to straight up die from the heat? Unfortunately you are going to die from being 300 pounds, but at least it will be in Japan.

Many localities are adding their own requirements on top of the new national law that are basically designed to shut down airbnbs. Like only allowing rentals on weekends or during school holidays.

You could make friends with someone who lives on the Sumida River and get invited over to drink and watch fireworks from their house/apartment. Good luck.

I checked Japanese websites and there are tons of rooms, even for this weekend. So your problem might be that big resellers like expedia and booking are booked up, not the hotels themselves.

I have had 3 flights come in multiple hours late to Narita due to maintenance issues on US based airlines. 3 times stranded at an airport hotel or partway to my destination because of the extreme lateness of the flight. No more US carriers for me.

Pollyanna posted:Mom and dad want to try again with the Japan tourism trip. I’ve put on a few pounds and I’ve always been pretty butch in appearance. Would I have any issues socializing or getting attention? I know that Japan has a bit of a thing about being overweight or any sort of gender non-conforming. You will be the top headline for weeks after you visit. Everyone in Japan will be thinking about you for months, if not years, after your visit. You are very, very special.

I don't know about Florida, but Tokyo Disneyland is almost completely identical to Disneyland California in terms of attractions. Disney Sea is mostly attractions that are unique among the Disney theme parks.

The breadcrumb trail of signage often breaks which is why people get lost in unfamiliar stations, even residents. But my favorite thing is in Tokyo all the private lines have signs pointing in the direction of the specific platform for the specific line. Not JR. JR signs are just a generic "JR lines this way." Which means loving nothing to a tourist trying to find the Joetsu Line or whatever.

I have never played the game, but the main neighborhood it takes place in is apparently based on Sangenjaya, which is a pretty normal residential area with lots of restaurants and shops that a lot of college kids live in.

Jinbocho has stores with English books as well, although that may be of more interest to locals. Probably no reason for tourists to lug English books back home, but who knows. You want to get the guide map from the information center near the station. There are over a hundred book stores in that area. A lot of stores have collections of old Showa era stuff that is really interesting to browse if you're into that. Just don't go on Sunday, most of the shops are closed.

Your plan seems perfectly fine except I still don't know why everyone plans a blank week in Tokyo. I mean, there is definitely a week's worth of stuff to do in Tokyo, but don't dedicate a third of your trip to it if you don't have any idea what you want to do.
