If you are starting in Tokyo take a bus to the city from Narita Airport. It is cheaper and allows you to see a lot of crazy shit on your way into the city. Doesn't take much longer than the train. If you are staying in Shinjuku/Shibuya you will cruise through a lot of the city. I would especially recommend this if you are a first timer. It will blow your mind.

i just realized you're going in september. that's near the matsuri(festival) season - DEFINITELY go somewhere where you will have time to party at one of the matsuris, the are crazy. so so rad. many places have them, some places are known for rad ones, look it up. nebuta/neputa in aomori/hirosaki was so rad.
- I'd love to go back in September, not enough vacation time left :(DrBombay

My friend got us the Japan Rail Pass for a week while we were there. Very convenient to travel from place to place. http://www.japanrailpass.net/eng…

Hey, OP, you could always go to the Butlers cafe in Shibuya:
