9 Night Itinerary Check

My husband and I just started planning a trip to Japan for mid-late March.

My husband is interested in various aspects of Japanese culture including Manga, Pokemon, sword, bonsai, and probably some other things I am forgetting.

For the restaurants, I am a vegetarian and do not each meat or fish. My husband does, but he prefers cooked fish to raw.

Is there anything that we are missing or rearrange?

Thank you!
