Hi there, Fuji invited me so I thought I'd contribute :) (To the other Matt, hello, nice to "meet" you, my name is Shiho and I'm a friend of Matt's!)
If you guys like Studio Ghibli films, there is a museum in Tokyo. It looks like you have to buy tickets in advance through a convenience store called "LAWSON." How to buy tickets can be found here.
Also, if you guys are interested in seeing other anime related stuff, there is a Tokyo Anime Center. Admission is free and it looks like they're closed on Mondays. To be honest, though, I am not quite sure what this place has... except I know from what is on the Japanese version, there is a gift shop with different anime goods and whatever, and a place where you can experience voice recording for an anime. But it's in Akihabara, which is the famous techy/otaku region in Japan, and I'm sure you can find some other otaku related things over there. :P
Also in Akihabara, there apparently is a vending machine that sells "oden in a can"... The site I found it says it's about a 5 minute walk from Akihabara Station. If you want details I can look it up for you guys.
I was just thinking about places that were very Japanese and that's all I came up with... anime subculture...
Oh wait! i have another one!! Senso-ji and its Kaminari mon. You guys should really check it out because it's one of the most famous temples in Japan. And you can't go to Japan and not go see a temple.
I don't really know where all of these places are relative to where you guys will be so if I'm apologize if any of these places are too far.
If there is anything specific that you guys are interested in seeing but don't really know how to look it up, feel free to ask me!
