We will be travelling Fromm Tokyo to Nagoya on May 6, which is the end of the National Holiday here. Please advise if we should reserve the Shinkansen train ticket ahead of time or we can just simply buying it the day of our departure.
Thanks Phyllis

Yes, I strongly recommend to make advance reservations for a more comfortable travel experience. Use the official JR channels (JR website, ticket machine or ticket office), and not inofficial websites, which don't guarantee reservations and charge at least 10% additionally. If it accepts your credit card, this official JR website is easy to use: https://smart-ex.jp/en/index.php

Yes, definitely. All Nozomi Shinkansen will be reservation only. The slower Shinkansen will have in reserved seats but very unlikely youfll find a free one if boarding from Nagoya. I went today from Tokyo to Kumamoto and at least between Tokyo and Kyoto there were people standing
