Hi. Last summer me and my girlfriend spend over a month cycletouring from Tokushima to Tokyo. You’re gonna love Shikoku - the most magical and beautiful place I’ve been in. Eastern part is less populated and nicer then the Weatern part. One thing I’d hardly recommend to everyone:
Kuretaishomachi Market
Taishomachi Kure, Nakatosa, Takaoka District, Prefektura Kōchi 789-1301,
Japan
https://goo.gl/maps/yZwUyvJw4e52Kuro is a small fishing village. We spend the night camping just outside and visited Kuro Fish Market in the morning, just when it opened. There we had the best and freshest tuna in all of Japan. The fishermen even took us to the back of his store and let me prepare tatami (flamed tuna) by myself. This was the best experience. Also if you want to visit Kuro you should take route 320 by the Ocean coast and then follow this road:
Unnamed Road, Kure, Nakatosa-chō, Takaoka-gun, Kōchi-ken 789-1301, Japonia

Ohh, and:

Few days in Tokyo, night train to Takamatsu, Shikoku (iya valley, Kochi, Shimanto valley) to Kyushu (Aso mount, Miyazaki, Kagoshima). Then Okinawa.
If somebody have recommendations for beautiful roads, nice people to meet, cool and weird places to see, I'm open !
