I have came across so many people having Tokyo -> Osaka or Kyoto in a single day using the Shinkansen in their itinerary. Some of the reasons I heard is because of JR pass and they want to experience taking the Shinkansen. Due to the JR pass price hike, JR pass may not be a viable reason now, but there are still people treating the whole traveling between Tokyo and Osaka/Kyoto using Shinkansen an experience that cannot be missed while in Japan. I have been to Japan 3 times, I have taken the Shinkansen 0 times. The last time I have Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto in my itinerary, I took a budget flight from Narita to Kansai Airport, which if I'm not wrong, can be shorter and cheaper than taking a Shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka. I stayed in Osaka for a few days, visited Kyoto while I was there, then took another budget flight back to Narita, and stayed in Tokyo for the rest of my holiday. Why spend your limited time wasting it all on back and fourth Shinkansen trips between Tokyo and Osaka/Kyoto? How many places can you visit in a single day after subtracting the time spent on Shinkansen? Just choose a central location as your accomodation, then plan around it.
Down low shinsekai was actually the worse place i visited in Osaka, not sure if it was the crappy weather the miserable staff in every store or just the overall vibe. I fucking hated it. Also i got severe food poisoning from Kura Sushi in Dontobori.. That was not fun.
Hi well I'm planning to travel to japan in December is to see if japan is for me i have a friend from school who lives in Okinawa and I'll be staying in japan for one month because one week doesn't give the time to visit kyoto, osaka, or fukuoka so one month is enough to explore around japan and I'll be flying nonstop from PR to japan I'm not going to get the kfc Christmas dinner which is a Christmas traditional dinner in japan It needs to make a reservation for the kfc Christmas dinner because they quickly sold out the next day I always wanted to try japanese mcdonalds and other fast food chains like mos burger, domdom burger, and freshness burger before heading to the hotel
One month is a good amount to be able to experience what you want to experience! The KFC Christmas set is pretty crazy, remember to pre order a few days in advance as they sell out quick!
Not really a fan of planing everything to a really tight scheduel tbh. I like to take my time exploring stuff I didnt know about and actually experience a place instead of having a checklist of things "I should be doing".

You should definitely make a site
Went October 18th to November 5th. Can confirm that the food is amazing. Planning a central location is definitely a good idea.
Perfect time also! I went in the first week of september. Would no recommend 🥵🌞
I'm going from March 21st to April 16th I think I'm littealy just scraping between two holidays so I'm lucky XD
Very lucky indeed!

Shinsekai/Tsutenkaku can be very hit or miss. It's become very touristy, so the staff gets a little shitty there at times!

Freedom and flexibility is very important!

I'm going home for Christmas in less than a month! Doing zero planning for that, letting my mom organize everything 😂
Too late. My return flight is today. Failed channel.
Damn, I should've used my superhero power of foresight to make this video 1 month ago just for you!
