day 4 is 4.5 hours travel.

day 13 is 5+ hours travel excluding transfers

day 16 onwards is or look rushed. you dont list transport options.

Kawaguchiko is between Nagano and Hakone. Nagano to Hakone to Kawaguchi is just double backing on yourself, an extra 4.5 hours travel over those days.

Is this itinerary different from what you already posted here?

If yes, please explain differences and where you actually want additional input. We are not here to figure that out for you.
