It won't be open until Q1 2022 at the very earliest for tourists and that's a stretch even w/ their current COVID situation (numbers spiking/hospital beds rapidly filling)
I mean our plans are not set in stone. Of course we will go there, but I wanted to know what else we can do or what we should even do in Tokyo.
The internet is your friend though, as far as tourist attractions/ect though. There's a post lower on the front page with a bunch of things that will require reservations to go, that's a good post.
Anywhere you go, especially if you've never lived in a city with a subway, I would leave early so you can figure out where you're going. The subway/JR train system isn't especially complicated (in Tokyo, signs are all in English, ect), but if it's your first time with a subway it might take a minute to figure out.
You don't really have to speak Japanese if you mostly hit tourist attractions. Places will either have someone who speaks at least basic English or a pamphlet for you to read in English to explain what you need to do. Restaurants in Tokyo/tourist areas (Kyoto, ect) will also tend to carry an English menu (or a menu with pictures of everything on it, just point to what you want to eat). The only thing you absolutely NEED to know how to say is if you have a food allergy, that way you can avoid food on the menu that you can't eat or you'll die.
Stay anywhere off the JR Yamanote line (for Tokyo) and you should be fine.
If you want to hit other major cities, Kyoto and Osaka are fairly easy with no/low level Japanese. As I've said before, most touristy places are prepared for foreign speaking tourists and will have at the very least brochures in English/Chinese and maybe even Korean.
S***tourism is gross, don't do it.
Make sure u absolutely know ur itinerary and exactly where events you're going to is located. A tour guide would be extremely helpful. The train and bus systems are very complicated if its ur first time around so get acquainted with that cause cabs in japan can run ur money up quick. Need to get ur JR pass prior to going there.
Food in Japan is really good but compared to the U.S the portions are very small so its gonna cost a lot to eat enough food to fill u (at least it was like that for me) buffets could be helpful or even the food in the convenience stores. There's also hella vendors everywhere so not hard to find places to eat at all. Reading the menus could be tough especially if ur allergic to anything. Like I'm muslim and Japan uses a lot of pork so that was a lil tough.
The language barrier is so and so, most people I met in major places like tokyo, shibuya, Kyoto, shinjuku knew english to some degree but more outside places like Hiroshima and nagoya, not too much. Someone who knows Japanese with u would be very helpful especially for directions. But overall I dont think it would affect u all that much, a translator app is advised.
There's a lot of places to visit, shrines, temples, museums, the tokyo digital art gallery is great, Tokyo tower is pretty nice, the memorial at hiroshima, etc
Idk how covid restrictions is in Japan rn so idk how open places are gonna be, so keep that in mind. Also make sure u brush off on some common Japanese etiquette and manners
re: COVID restrictions
By the time the country opens to allow tourists in, it's likely nothing will be restricted at that point. They are one of the few countries in the world still restricting even visa holders from entering the country, though, so who knows when tourists will be able to get in.
Hope you aren't planning on going any time soon because you probably aren't getting in and even if you do there won't be much to do because of covid
I've been to Tokyo, Kyoto, Takayama, Kanazawa, Osaka, Hiroshima, Kobe, and Nara. Overall I've spent around 2 months total traveling Japan.
For Tokyo:
I stayed in kabukicho the first time which is right next to Shinjuku (literally 5 min walk to Shinjuku station). It's known as the red light district but it's not really odee sleazy or anything. At most you're gonna have some Nigerians asking if you want to see some girls.
Ideally I'd stay close to Shinjuku because it's very easy to get anywhere, it's not as jam packed as Shibuya, and it's still a major hub. After Shinjuku I'd go for Roppongi or Shibuya. Slightly west of the city center is definitely where it's at.
The subway shouldn't take long to get used to. Just buy the passmo card and put like 5k yen ($50) in it and refill as you need to. The subway isn't that expensive but that depends on how far you travel since it's by distance. That's one reason staying in one of the major hubs is worth it.
You can also get a JR rail pass which is highly recommended if you're going to be traveling to various cities.
Food is pretty cheap especially if you aren't tracking down Michelin stars and s*** the whole time. A fulfilling lunch is gonna run you $12-18. Dinner varies a lot more but you can do a lot especially since theres so much street food.
A lot of museums require planning and tickets or reservations in advance.

Shinjuku Gyoen National garden and Yoyogi Park are really nice too
FOOD:
Tsukiji fish market: market area with great sushi spots with the freshest sushi around. Kinda touristy and confusing.
Unagi: a specialty in japan, unagi is broiled or grilled eel. Lots of places specialize in this dish, so much so that it’ll be the only thing they offer. Some of the places are crazy expensive and impossible to get into, but Hitsumabushi Bincho is much more casual and located conveniently in Ginza.
Izakayas: Japanese pubs. General term for a pub that typically will serve yakitori or grilled skewers of meat, veggies, etc. they’re all over the place but tend to be fairly small (only a few seats) though exceptions exist. Also sometimes known as Yakiniku, referring to grilled meat.
If you stay near Shinjuku you have Golden Gai nearby which are a bunch of small alleys packed with bars. The people inside range from tourists to locals and they always chat and have a good time in there
Go to Akihabara and walk down to the Don Quixote and get those kobe beef skewers out front. Amazing snack.
SHOPPING:
make sure to hit shibuya/Harajuku/roppongi (all in the same general area). Shibuya has the most cool stuff like bape, Visvim, cdg, Margiela, atmos, and a bunch of thrift shops like Ragtag that specialize in high end/designer stuff
Just know all the consignment shops prices are crazy. But you can def find a steal if really look around. Definitely hit up the actual Japanese flagships like Undercover because they're all gonna be cheap as hell.
SEX:
Yoshiwara is the place to go for Tokyo. Plenty of foreigner friendly soaplands although it will be more difficult getting into one if you're black which is unfortunate. You could try Dolce and Sweet Kiss for starters. Prices will range from $180-$260 for an hour, usually around $230. You pick the girls based on pictures from a book. You'll be getting head without condom and s***with condom.
In Osaka you're gonna want to hit Tobita Shinchi. This is an Amsterdam style red light district where you can see the girls out front before deciding to smash. Prices are typically a little higher at around $280 and CONDOM IS ON FOR EVERYTHING. Even head. Feels a little rushed but it's a nice one time experience.
I can write more about other cities but this is already long enough
Yeah no time soon. We just started planning for it and we all need to start saving. Also, thanks a lot man. You gave me some really usual information.
My sister, me and her husband are about to take a trip to Asia. Japan is one of our destinations. What should I know before going and where should we go other than Tokyo?
Tokyo's overrated visit the outside cities before coming to Tokyo go visit Fukouka, Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto and Nagoya.

One dude told me you can get head without a condom at a soapland lmao! I am good... Not interested in paying for s***ever. Plus I will be there with my little sister and her husband lol.
Thank you for the helpful info my man.

Np, all in all, for an Asian country with very different language/culture, Japan (at least in the bigger cities) is very easy to navigate for tourism! Plan well and you'll have a great time!
If you’re a foreigner in Japan you probably got shoved into lockers and spazzed out at the teachers

already a lot of good advice here. I'd add to check out some Japanese clothing brands/stores because you can get some really cool and quality stuff there. raw denim is worth the investment if you fw jeans. Beams Plus is my favorite Japanese clothing brand but Undercover and Needles are worth checking out too, tho a bit pricier
in Tokyo you should check out the Shimokitazawa neighborhood which is kinda off the beaten path but a hip and interesting neighborhood. Roppongi Hills has a cool art museum too, saw a Takashi Murakami exhibit there. then of course people watching in Shibuya/Harajuku. check out some Japanese gardens for sure too
two favorite places I went to in Japan were probably Nikko, which is a day trip from Tokyo and definitely worth it depending on the time of the year, and Naoshima. that's an island further south of Tokyo that was converted from a small fishing town to an island focused on art museums. there are some James Turrell exhibits there that are worth it alone but it was an amazing visit altogether
drink sake, shochu, and try to check out a tea ceremony. eat sushi, ramen, tempura, onigiri, yakkiniku, takoyaki, and mochi. learn some basic Japanese phrases and be respectful
Hope you aren't planning on going any time soon because you probably aren't getting in and even if you do there won't be much to do because of covid
