Now, since there is quite a lot to cover, I won't elaborate too much on each single point - but feel free to ask in the comments if you are interested in details for some of them.

First, the "usual suspects" that you will also find in most good travel guides:

• Learn how to use chopsticks properly in advance

• Never point chopsticks at anything or anyone

• Never move bowls/etc with your chopsticks

• Never stick your chopsticks vertically into food. Ever.

• Never pass food to someone from-chopstick-to-chopstick. Ever.

• In restaurants/etc., check for (and put on) provided toilet slippers before entering a washroom, even if it is tiny

• Make sure to take those off again when leaving it

• Do not tip. Tipping is very uncommon.

• Slurping is fine for ramen, soba and green tea. For pretty much the entire rest: don't.

• When entering smaller eateries that have counters, make sure to watch out for "ticket vending machines" near the entrance. Buy a ticket for the desired meal, then hand it in at the counter. If you want to appear well-versed, consider making eye contact with the cook behind the counter and announce what you want even before handing in the ticket. Also, in such small eateries, you are often expected to return your tray to the counter after eating.

• Maybe, maybe tip in rare cases... but only if you clearly caused the staff/taxi driver/whomever some extraordinary amount of trouble. Still, do not do so if the other person offered to do that stuff from their side.

• The hot towels provided with meals are to cleanse your hands, and can even be used for wiping your forearms to get a pleasant fresh feeling. But if you can somehow bear it, do not use them to wipe your face or throat, even if you are sweaty.

• It's a slight thing, but generally try to keep your feet away from people. The customs for this are way less strict in Japan than in some other asian countries, but the feet are still considered the least noble parts of your body.

• If you visit an onsen, scrub yourself down very thoroughly in the washing area before entering the hot water. Yes, even the space between your toes - and even if you showered just half an hour earlier. In fact, feel free to make quite a show of it by using a lot of soap to produce silly amounts of foam in the process. Trust me, it will deinitely be to your social benefit.

• On a similar note - shower each day, everyday. And don't be mislead by those heavily-scented soaps offered in hotels and elsewhere. The Japanese are actually not very fond of fragrances - in fact these soaps are basically meant to be used instead of deodorant/perfume. Sweat is considered natural and healthy, but you are supposed to always wash it off, not cover the smell. Simply put, it's fine to sweat a lot - but if you smell, you socially failed.

• When visiting any shinto shrine that has a water basin near the entrance, wash your hands and mouth before entering. The sequence is left hand-right hand-mouth (as seen in this video). For extra points, re-purify the ladle at the end, too, by dripping water along the handle.

• Also, when making an offering, any small amount of money works, even if it's just 10 yen. However, ideally you should prefer using 5yen coins for doing so. They are traditionally considered to bring good luck because of the way "go-en" sounds.

• Finally (and really obscure): when walking on the temple/shrine grounds towards the main building, do not use the middle of the path. It can be considered as bragging.
