Booking Shinkansen and golden week

I am travelling to Japan from April 22-May 6th 2025 and wanted to know a couple things.

  1. Our second week is booked during Golden week and we are unable to change flights however we are planning on staying in Tokyo during this week which we hear is a little less chaotic. Is this correct?

  2. Can we book the Shinkansen now for the first week to and from Osaka or do we have to wait till we arrive/ or 30 days before? I can’t seem to work out the website.

  3. With that, will it be hard to get back to Tokyo from Osaka on the 29th (first day of Golden week)
