Well I've only traveled a few, and they were while I was enlisted, so it wasn't exactly a free roam of Japan. I like the idea of some of the mountainous regions where the majority have moved away for work. I also have an interest in their "native" population called Ainu who populate an island region in the west.

[Kinshi]

Saitama aswell

[Crystal Sharrd]

Shinjuku because of Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl and 7th Dragon 2020.

[sleeps]

osaka because... osaka.

Tokyo.

I imagine people are expecting everyone to say Akiba, but as I'm a northerner who hates crowded cities, I'd have to say somewhere in Hokkaido or right on the edge of Kyoto.

You think the city was named after him, or he was named after the city?

Arakawa Ward in Tokyo, where I once lived and has views of massive train track junctions at Nippori Station.

Excluding trains, likely Sendai city. Excellent transit for a city of its size, lively economy, great education - the third best university of the country is based here - lots of parks, and lots of shopping and entertainment, all in a significantly smaller footprint than Tokyo or Osaka.

Farms, mountain parks, and the ocean are within half an hour by transit from Sendai Station. Tokyo is just an hour and a half away by train anyway, if needed.

Akiba is not a city, is a neighborhood of Chiyoda Ward, which can be considered a city on its own, in Tokyo.

My favorite is Obama city in Fukui prefecture.

Dunno, but if I did ever get to visit the nation, I'd sign up for a long tour of all the gardens as well as old buildings/temples that they preserved.

Hopefully with an in person tour guide, so they can orate some bit of history I'll readily forget and not those stupid headset things, plus I'd like to occasionally ask questions, but you never allowed when in a group setting so... "meh" because also rushed, hustle sheep hustle we got 27 locations to visit in a two hour slot.

Don't much care for the modern cityscapes. Cities are kind of boring cluttered boxy dystopia, some are better than others, but fundamentally its all just boxes, with boxy cars, doing boxy things and people swarming like ants everywhere.
