What this video shows
From the guide “Japan Onsen vs Sento: How to Choose a Bath”: An onsen and a sento are not two names for the same kind of bath. Onsen describes water or another substance that meets Japan’s legal definition for an underground source, while sento describes a type of public bathing facility.
From the guide “Japan Public Transport Guide: Trains, Subways and Buses”: Japan's trains, subways and buses are easy to use once you know three things. Pay with a paper ticket or a tap-to-pay IC card. Follow station signs that use line letters, numbers and colors.
