Japan Itinerary Check + Recommendations for gaps?

Hi there. I am planning to go to Japan between the 17th January – 26th January with my partner. It is the 1st time I have gone and 2nd time she has gone. We are planning to split it between Tokyo and Osaka. Wanting some thoughts on my itinerary so far.

Ideally wanting to fit in some kobe beef somewhere!

Tuesday 17th Jan; Arrive in Tokyo NRT airport 4:50PM. Travel to accomodation in Shibuya. Imagine will get there around 730ish so will dinner somewhere (?recommendations) and go to sleep

Wednesday 18th January; Team Labs planets, Shibuya Exploring (Crossing, Nintendo official store/Pokemon mega Store), Miyashita Park (Mall + Lunch), Shibuya Sky for sunset + Harajuku for night time/dinner

Thursday 19th January – Tokyo Tower (+ RED gaming floors in tokyo tower), happy pancake, tokyo art aquarium + dinner (?ninja restaurant in akasaka vs ?dinner somewhere else)

Friday 20th January; Disneysea (Full day)

Saturday 21st January; Tsukiji Fish Market (?Sushi Dai), Sensouji Temple + Nakamise shopping street, Akihabara for rest of the day

Sunday 22nd January; Leave to Osaka. Shinsaibashi/Dotonbori on arrival and night time rivercruise + dinner somewhere

Monday 23rd January; Osaka Castle, Kita/Umeda + lunch, Initially were planning to go to Osaka Aquarium but no longer doing this so unsure what will do for the afternoon, Abeno Haruka for Evening time and dinner somewhere

Tuesday 24th January – Universal Studios Japan (Full day)

Wednesday 25th January – Train back to Tokyo, Shopping for the rest of the day

Thursday 26th January, Flight back home. (Plane leaves at 12:30 in the afternoon so nothing we can do on this day really)

Any feedback much appreciated.
