That cloudy view, though, gives you an angle. A real viewpoint more than trying to decipher Google Earth. And if you go over multiple blogs, you end up with several angles. Those cloudy views give you the feelings of a place more than a forensic study of the cracks on the walls.

I'd buy a Lonely Planet guide to Tokyo and do a TripAdvisor search on any specific location. Any inadequacies will be dealth with in a rewrite, as long as the structure and narrative are sounds.

As for Shakespeare, what about, "Be gone." I'm sure it's been used a few times.

Or, watch documentaries/ other films or read some books (fiction, or non-fiction) set in the location you want to set your script in... I'd recommend reading the script for, and watching 'Lost in Translation', as well as some films made by Japanese directiors (such as 'Tokyo!' if you can track it down).

My next feature will be set mostly in Amsterdam - I've been reading lots of travel/ tourist books, and internet travel blogs, as well as talking to people I know who have visited the city. However, I also plan to visit Amsterdam in the next few months as well.
