Kamogawa to demonstrate that Japan isn't just over populated concrete hell?!
For people who like to travel north….
- Matsushima is very nice.
- Zao mountain is nice too.
Guess in general any other city which happen to have a festival during the visit. Japanese processions are by any means worth a visit.

Lauren's

small more eclectic neighborhoods
- Kichijoji
- Nakameguro
- Jiyugaoka.
Tour of a few great food spots.
Tsukiji of course.
Book district in Jimbocho.

As far as nerd friendly tourist attractions go, I found the Ghibli museum to be quite memorable (even as someone who had never heard of Ghibli before visiting Japan).
Also on Odaiba the Sony Explorascience (though more for younger crowds)
National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation.
