Help with itinerary. I think I’m cramming too much for 10 days

Hiya! Going in November, 9 full days, 2 half days. Arrive in Osaka, fly out from Tokyo. Need help plz!!

Plan is:
3N Osaka; 2N Kyoto; 1 Night bus to Fujiyoshida or Kanazawa?; 1N Fuji or Kanazawa; 4N Tokyo (day trip to Fuji if going to Kanazawa on night bus), so technically only 2 full days in Tokyo.

Questions:

  1. Ive seen so many posts where people say 1 full day in Osaka, and now I have 2 full days for Osaka, in which half a morning is for Nara). I’m not interested in partying but will want to check how the city happens at night anyways. So I thought I could stay those 3 nights in Osaka (cheaper than extending one night in Kyoto) and use one of those days to visit the bamboo forest or the Fushimi Inari.
  2. Kanazawa looks incredible, is it really worth it? What’s unmissable about it? (I thought about a day trip but Shinkansen tickets are soooo expensive).
  3. Tokyo. If we go to Kanazawa, we won’t spend so much time in Tokyo. 2 days is too little right?

I’d be so grateful for your advice! I just read a post about Japan research travel burnout and I’m feeling it!!!! Can’t make up my mind!
