There are some really unexpectedly neat/chill pockets of Tokyo that make it absolutely worth spending more time at! That bar sounds grouse. I'll have to see what my last few days are like, I was planning to have a go at the Shimanami Kaido from Imabari to Onomichi, spend a day in Onomichi then take a late train to Tokyo and do a wee bit of targeted shopping on my last day before flying off in the afternoon. But depending of how much energy I have, I might be tempted to be more of an urbanite and head from Takamatsu to do 3 nights in a cute part of Tokyo like Musashino or something hmmm
Well you sound more researched and prepared than I do, so don't let me influence you! I think I was just happy that I could actually stand being out and about in Tokyo, and not constantly swarmed. I don't really understand the attraction of Shibuya crossing, apart from to get the fuck away from there, it was a sensory nightmare!
