I'm 29, never left the country. My bucket list is visiting Japan at the very top. I have no idea what you do or if you have to go through travel agencies, how much money you should bring etc

Note that there are various rail passes, and the often-overlooked JR east pass gets you access to all of Tohoku from Tokyo (and as far west as Nagano) for only ~$200. If OP comes during festival time in late July/early August it would be well worth hopping up to Akita or Aomori to see the festivals around there.
