Japanese Culture is different from those in North America so I really don't want to be intertwined with something wrong going on. I just don't want to appear as a retarded foreigner.
 
Eat all the food you can. Seriously though. Try anything and everything. Go wild. Even try western style food there bc many places, especially bakeries have a very Japanese twist on some western classics.

Hardly anywhere uses card so make sure you get plenty of cash exchanged at the airport.

Have a smartphone. This can easily eliminate much of the language barrier and make it easier. I did not have a phone in 2017 and it made me really depend on my friends who knew the language and area bc i couldnt just Google things.

Honestly, if you're a foreigner, nobody is gonna expect a lot. Just do your best. They probably think you're an idiot anyways but the culture of Japan loves politeness and hates confrontation so don't worry about it.
 
Already getting ready to assimilate into their culture?
Proud of you bud, alright, here are the 4 most important steps you need to complete to quickly and completely integrate yourself into japanigger society:

1. Get a horrible office Job.
2. Realize Japan is Hell.
3. Sexually assault random women on a train.
4. Kill yourself.

Just in case you're actually a max level Autist Anime-Fucker Retard readying himself to enter his holy-land, and not just someone bait-posting, i thought I'd clarify:
Do not sexually assault random women.
This is satire, normal people, even over there, do not do that.
 
They love to talk about Hentai, learn how to pronounce you favorite titles, and practice your Ahegao face. This will help breaking the ice.
I'm not sure if an average Japanese people has the same fetishes as a group of degenerates that make Hentai.

I never feel like sacrificing my citizenship to my own country. I'll going there for 2 weeks and I will plan future trips to Japan later in the future but living there forever isn't likely. The only way I'd forsaken my citizenship is if I am taxed to hell for citizenship alone and if said country becomes a dystopian shithole.
Chicken sashimi is real.
I have no interest in eating that, And that's coming from a person who ate Raw Sushi and Raw Eel.

Isn't a ton of advice I can give was only there for a few days. I know for whatever weird reason talking on public transportation is a major taboo. I don't know why but it really pisses then off.

Beyond that some restaurants will refuse to admit anyone not Japanese just move on if it happens.

Only other thing I can recall is violence utterly shocks them. They will scream less then an inch in front of your face but even showing them makes them turn ghost white. They are extremely adverse to any kind of physical confrontation.
