Festivals are held in almost every city in Japan, and even the remotest locations are easily accessible by the train and bus systems. As well, every town in Japan is nice.

yes tokyo is expensive, but the train system in japan is really good, so no matter where you live, you can get to shibuya, tokyo very easy. I live near kamakura and for me to get to shibuya takes about 1 hour. festivals are every where in japan, not just tokyo.

"Best place" is very subjective to opinion. Many places are accessible to Shibuya especially with the massive train system. I lived in Kanagawa (south of Tokyo) that was easy access to Shibuya. Live where you can afford to live. Live where you can get a job and make a living. Worry about the rest later.

The most important and expensive part of Tokyo is in the Yamanote line circle, particularly lower (south) half. We have government buildings and the most expensive apartments there. Outside of Yamanote line, the further you go from the line, the cheaper land is. We have residential sections in all North South, East, West. So it's pretty the same no matter which direction you go.

Kobe.

Kobe. I don't like Tokyo simply because the Tokyo accent freaks me out.

If you are just planning to stay on a couple of months or shorter months, there are guest houses in Shibuya that cost from 60,000 - 100,000 yen per month. Tokyo has many festivals. Shibuya has local festivals or events too. If you wish to live outside Tokyo or just in the outskirts of Tokyo, there are towns like Fussa. You can also live in Yokohama which is also just near Tokyo.

One of my favourite places in Japan is Yokohama. Yokohama is the second largest city in Japan after Tokyo and is located by the sea close to Tokyo. Yokohama has a lot to offer including the futuristic Minato Mirai 21 harbourtown, Yokohama Marine Town and Chinatown. It is an International city and a great plave to live and commute to Tokyo.
