Visa Run to Tokyo

Can anyone clue me up on a visa run to Tokyo - or direct me to some answers? The mighty Forumosa search engine is not too functional today.

With regard to the visa run I’m actually leaning towards simply flying in and out of Japan and then getting my ARC sorted out anew as soon as I’m back - I’m not aiming for a three month student visa or such like. Which means I don’t even need to bother making a TECO visit?

Is it still standard to get a month in the country on my Visa if I fly out to another country? I’m assuming that will be enough time to get it all done.

The Health Check and paperwork are all together so its just a matter of applying on my return.

And last but not least my just departed Japanese girlfriend will be there to lead me around the city and we’re looking for somewhere budget to stay. Suggestions are welcome.
