That said, I also do not believe that Japan is going to go anywhere (unless some crazy natural disaster really sink the island) anytime soon. So my advice to the would be traveler is that, instead of rushing into the trip, why not save up for another year or a few more months so that you can enjoy the trip
I am seeing a lot of people (Including a lot of my friends) who save up a bare minimal and have to live a sub-standard life while traveling around Japan, you will not enjoy your trip this way.
Just my 2 cents

I agree 100%. I never understand the idea of saving up to go to Japan to eat cup ramen and stay in sub-standard conditions. If you are spending your whole trip watching the money disappear from your wallet, how can you relax and have fun?
