That's it!! Mai baebi!! You're half way to hangover, my friend.
For real tho, have an excellent time. Its such a wonderful place. Travel outside of Tokyo, if you can. Tokyo is a weird bubble and Japan is really at its best outside of the metropolitan area imo. Have all the fun!!
N0te, you didn't mention beer!
From what I remember, beer is expensive in Japan. Drink japanese hard liquor or sake for best effect.
Asahi SuperDry
Pay attention, Adam.
If you are worried that beer will be too expensive, you can drink happoshu (a weird chemical beer that is basically the uncanny valley of beers). They are cheaper than beer (bc they don't use the ingredients in beer that are taxed by the j govt) but will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth and a helluva hangover. The only one I ever found palatable was Kin-Mugi (the blue can). Drank that shit for years but probably only saved a collective 10 bucks haha.
Do not bother with friends.
Do not bother with chiptune.
Eat all the okonomiyaki, omusoba, omurice, takoyaki, tuskemono, hiyashi chuuka, zarusoba, tensoba, yakitori, kushiyaki, ikayaki, kegani, and katsu curry ramen that you can.
Drink all the Boss Black, Boss Rainbow, Silky Black, C.C. Lemon, Strong Zero (grapefuit), Strong Zero (Ume), Asahi SuperDry, nama shibori grapefruit sour, oolong-hi, and shochu that you can.
Sleep on the street to save your money for Hard Off and gacha gacha machines.
That is all.
Do that and you'll have an excellent time (although I'd bring more than 72000, personally).

---- Note! ----
Note!, the alias of Christophe Richard from Brooklyn, New York, explores music through a lo-bit aesthetic and aims to prove that even the simplest square waves and white noise can be textured and crafted to create something far greater than the sum of their parts. Oh and you can dance to it. But bring extra AA batteries, please.
---- L-Tron ----
Upon discovering what
the program was capable of,
the scientists took immediate percautions,
securing it inside of the nearest electronic
device they could find: A nintendo Game Boy.
They feared its power yet could not bring
themselves to destroy it. Trapped inside the machine
with no way to escape and return to its own time,
the program began expressing itself through
the sound chip of the Game Boy.
Eons passed...
An exploration vessel near a
planet called earth recorded
the following transmissions -
code-named: L-tron
