Is anyone here in or familiar with Tokyo? Going on a trip and have zero idea what to do as a non-tourist...

TOKYO!
The "Going on a trip and have zero idea what to do as a non-tourist..." isn't entirely true like it was in my post about NYC as anyone that has seen me talk about sumo can imagine, but everyone was extremely helpful and threw out suggestions I wouldn't have even thought about looking for in previous posts. So here I am again to bug you wonderful people for Tildes Travel Guide III: Tokyo Trilogy Part Minus One
The overarching details:
- 7 days in Tokyo from Friday, January 9th to Friday, January 16th.
- Except for Jan 9, I am completely solo for the entire trip.
- There are two specific events I will be attending, one is Friday the 9th, the other is TBD but can be nearly any day during the trip.
- I don't know where I'm staying yet. Where is kinda dependent on what I decide to do/be regularly near, am open for accommodation recommendations. I would prefer to stay in one place the entire trip, not real interested in packing up all of my things to move to another part of Tokyo (or another city) unless I can be convinced to do so.
- I'm not the sightseeing tourist-y type so there's little interest in the things that are on every "Tokyo Top 10" list.
And so I beseech you fellow Tilderinos, as someone that doesn't care about being a tourist and doesn't have a social media presence to feed I'm-here-and-you're-not selfies to, what should someone with nearly a week entirely alone with nothing but free time in Tokyo actually do?
If you're reading this and thinking there's not much to go on interest-wise...
...that's the point.
I know what I like.
I know what I don't like.
I don't know what I don't know about and experimenting and trying new things is paramount to life.30 votes -

I don't mean this in the sense of "if I have a sex dream that involves my mother, does that mean I am attracted to my mother?", I know that dreams aren't a literal representation of our desires in that sense.
What I mean more is, is there any study or anything that has been done to see if a dream's content indicates anything about what problem the brain is trying to work out?
Like does a dream about sex indicate that a certain lobe in the brain is particularly active at that moment?
Or like I have had negative dreams that cause me to feel anxiety when I wake up that involve my family or where I was in the middle of an ICE raid recently, does that indicate anything in particular about what my brain was doing while I was asleep that caused me to feel anxiety and that happened to manifest as ICE raids?
not sure if this was the right sub for this question.

Please something simple, I have a little more experience playing it but have never DM'd before, but we're both very creative, so I can think we both can still have fun
