Sorry, I don't care for the question and content of your thread
But your image makes me want to discuss Arnold Schwarzenegger's role as an actor in Japanese commercials and advertisements, which is actually quite large and unbeknownst to most Americanshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s8qn_PKbiA

Honestly, this depends on your hobbies.Pokemon fan? There’s definitely stuff to do in Japan.
Studio ghibli fan? Ghibli museum
Anime/manga fan? Probably akihabaraThen there’s the niche Japanese subcultures.Maid cafes? Akihabara with the occasional Shinjuku
Idol fan? Plenty of lives in Shibuya
AKB48 fan? Believe it or not, Akihabara
Jfashion? HarajukuAnd for more normie/non-weeb interests…
High end dining: Shinjuku, Ginza
Nightlife: kabukicho (east side of Shinjuku)
Temples: they’re everywhereWith a Japan trip, it’s very easy to see things like the Shibuya crossing as a “tourist attraction.” I swear that crossing is one of the least interesting things you could find or see in Japan

Same situation and I might get a week of stay after crew change on ny ship before I leave for home.I don't really like anime and manga. I like ethnographic cultural events, alcohol, picturesque natural sights and music. What are some good recs preferably while avoiding tourist traps?

I was thinking of going to Reitaisai next year, first time in japan.
What should I check out as well? I want to brainstorm some ideas
Although it would be great if I could go to a park full of sparrows like this https://youtu.be/9wcXuAVxQOU?si=4s_Fif2GFV8F36wB

I have a love/hate relationship with Tokyo because it's just so grey. I recommend going Kyoto and not spending too much time in the popular tourist areas like Kiyomizu/Gion/Arashiyama. However, I always would recommend climbing Fushimi Inari from the first train at like 5:30. Don't even bother if you can't wake up early. From a Kansai base in Kyoto you can go to Osaka, Kinosaki Onsen, Nara, Hiroshima, and more. Unless you speak Japanese, don't count on chatting up locals easily. But, if you are familiar with Japanese customs and etiquette and can memorize a handful of phrases, that goes a huge way with a much smaller commitment. If you're in Kyoto on the 21st of any month, I'd recommend checking out the Toji Temple market.

I recommend going to the temple and Nara and buying as many deer biscuits as you can fit in your cargo shorts to feed the deer with. They are extremely well behaved and will wait patiently in line before blessing you and if you are lucky doing a little dance.
