I will miss...
The Shinkansen. Best way to travel, period.
Amemura, or America Town, in Osaka. It's to America what our Chinatowns are to China.
The hideous things Japanese McDonald's come up with. The breakfast McHotDog. The Egg Double Mac. The list could go on and on. You don't need to eat them to enjoy the ridiculousness.
Buying sushi at the convenience store.
Japanese convenience stores in general.
No tipping but still having service twice as good as the States.
Streets filled with paper lanterns during festival season.
The cuteness of Japanese kids. Sometimes I think the dopamine rush they give is the reason I stayed so long.
Onsens. Public baths are just not something Americans do, but it's really pretty delightful. Especially if you get to drink beer and eat ice cream in the nude. Oh yeah.
Seasonal Kit-Kat flavors. Salty watermelon, green tea, blood orange, and so forth. Some are better than others, but it's like Pokemon, gotta try 'em all!
Capsule machine toys. Way cooler than the bouncy balls and cheap rings we had as kids.
Puri-kura photo booths. Sometimes you DO need that much glitter in your life.
