Best time to go is Spring (March-May), or fall (Sep.-Nov). The temperatures are nicer, there's less crowding at tourist locations, and there are also a number of fun holidays in Spring (Golden Week). The summers in Japan are dreadfully hot and sticky, not to mention its the rain/typhoon season. The winter can get a little too nippy to enjoy many of Japan's outdoor attractions, and travel is very difficult around the New Years.

Well i like cold weather better than hot but i would love to go to the citys and shop and go to the hide musuem.


\if there's freedom to be had in that clear blue sky
I wouldn't care if these wings I'm so proud of were torn off
I began running, frantically aiming for the sky
I spread my wings and flew away, and the spot where I fell
was 'freedom'.
with a wonderful family, and wonderful friends
these were the best days of my life, if I'm reborn
let's meet again...

Then Tokyo in the winter is probably for you. February is probably cheaper than January, when a lot of people travel.

Sorry, but most places in Japan, you're going to have both of those. You just bear with it, and spring and fall are nice...

Do you know if it's really humid/hot in the summer in places like Hokkaido?

Never went to Hokkaido, but it's supposed to be cooler there than the rest of Japan in summer (still humid though, I think).

Yes, most of Japan is very hot and humid in summer. Cooler the farther north you go, of course.
