I'll be staying in a hostel as well, no need for fancy accomodation. Anyone know a good play to stay?

It all depends if I can nab a really cheap airfare on sale.

The YADOYA Guesthouse is the cheapest hostel/guesthouse I've seen in Tokyo, hands down. I stayed there back in 2009 for two weeks, and it was nice (apart from a few problems that got fixed later that year...)

I'm very upset by the airfare. It's about $1500 from my general area (Nashville/Atlanta). For my last two trips to Japan, I've bought my plane tickets in April/May (and I've never paid more than $800 either time), so hopefully the prices will go down by then...!!!
