A thread on 5ch turned into users listing places in Japan they seriously think you should visit. Alongside classic tourist spots like Universal Studios Japan, the Tottori Sand Dunes, and Takachiho Gorge, some curveballs popped up too — the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the University of Tokyo, and JAXA — with posters cheerfully scoring each one on “charm” and “convenience” to keep the thread rolling.

The site of the heavenly grandson's descent (a key Shinto myth)

Low convenience means there's real satisfaction when you finally arrive
Sure, some spots turn out to be letdowns
Anyway — with that in mind: the summit of Mt. Fuji
