The Neon Hunter

You came for the Japan you've already seen on screen — the lights, the speed, the food, the nightlife, the surreal density.

Shibuya, Shinjuku, Akihabara, Osaka Dotonbori, Fukuoka's yatai — your trip is fast, urban, contemporary, and loud. The full reading lays out a route that maxes out every night, the right neighborhoods to base in (some are huge mistakes), the food crawls worth scheduling, the day-trips that match your energy, and the budget tricks that double your Tokyo nights without halving the quality.
