In the next week I had been there, I talked with the people, and although I was self conscious about the fact that I was white, the people there were amazingly polite.
Needless to say, even before I entered Tokyo by the Shinkansen, I was always planning on how to move over and what to do and what not.
When I laid my eyes on Tokyo though, the "magical" feeling came back. I fell in love with the place, and my disappointment from the first few hours of the trip was washed away permanently.
I'm well aware of the fact that I will never be "Japanese". And never have I expected to. I'll always be the outsider, but I want to worm myself into Japan culture and it's future. I'm willing to do anything to live there.
However, after the trip, I was hit by quite some disappointment. As soon as I landed in London, I felt depressed.

How did you land in Kyoto?
