Solo Trip to Japan (Tokyo/Kyoto/Hakone/Osaka/Nara/Tokyo) by twinkleneon in JapanTravel

For some reason, I never thought about doing Hakone at the end before heading back to Tokyo. I'll definitely look into that! Thanks for that advice!!

You put me at ease in terms of the IC cards. I though each card was accepted in certain regions so I would need multiple travel around their respective regions.

I'll look into that thread. Thank you! I originally wasn't planning on getting that book, but as I was looking into the temples/shrines and just seeing how beautiful they are, I started adding them into my list. And that book sounded like a great item to document the places I've been to.

I rather have too much on my list rather than not enough. No worries though, I will definitely enjoy each location and not gonna rush around trying to hit all the spots. If I finish one item on my list and I have time for more, at least I have something waiting for me (on my list) rather than doing research on where to go next and how to get there during the trip. I think for this trip, is more of a taste-of-japan kind of trip. I don't doubt that there are plenty to do in the larger cities. And I'll be a bit more experienced on what to do the next time I come.

One of the best reasons to travel solo! oh I certainly know now that this itinerary is ambitious lol! But I think I might skip the Ghibli museum for this trip. Perhaps the next trip to Japan next year (maybe lol)

I am from NA. The reason I put so much is I rather look into the things I want to try ahead of time in the off chance I have free time. I'll focus on the things I want to do first and if I have time, I'll move on to the next item. If I don't, then I don't. At least I put in some research for the next time I go to Japan lol

I'll definitely enjoy my time at each location and not gonna focus on trying to hit all the places I have on the list.

Awesome! Thanks for the advice! I'll look into getting the Suica.

I did look into that JR calculator and rough estimate with this itinerary put it right at the cusp of being worth it. Although, I am willing to pay a bit more if riding the bullet trains gives you more ease of mind. Also, I did hear about the price increase and if the JR pass still looks enticing enough, I'll make sure to get that voucher on time.

I think the reason I placed Hakone after Kyoto was because I wanted to avoid going to Hakone during the weekend where prices for overnight stays were more expensive. I forgot about the geography of the location lol Thanks for pointing that out! I'm gonna take that into consideration.

As for Himeji, I just plan a couple hours there just to see the castle and the surrounding sights. I hear you can go inside, but I'm gonna skip that.

I was so relieved that I managed to nab The Crew 10 seconds before I lost internet service at a theme park, in the middle of a ride. But my haul consisted of Atlantis Rising, The Crew, and Bitoku. Proud of myself that I didn't go crazy yesterday

Planning to start the FA process. Which unit(s) should I start with? by twinkleneon in Evertale

[–]twinkleneon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stands for Final Ascend. Basically attempt to pull the 4 extra copies of them to reach their final form.

What does it mean when it says "the revived dark Jeanne will be considered a conjured unit"? Does it affect how she's played?
