They look adorable and they're also quite difficult to make. I tried doing it once. I had a lot of fun but you really need a lot of practice to make it.
I agree with you on red beans. I have had the time to get used to it and sometimes you find things in which the texture is easier to bear but you can never know.
Well, thing is, in Japan, food in restaurant is usually high quality compared to European standards. I mean even the cheapest sushi tastes better than what I had in France but yeah some restaurants are crazy expensive and it's not always sushi. Mostly it depends on where it is located and how it's branded. Like, the oldest the tradition the more expensive it gets. But the trick to go to these places for lunch where you can actually afford it, the price of a full course lunch can be half the price for the same course for dinner.
Kimono are the same, you can find real ones for pretty cheap if you know where to look. I own a vintage kimono I bought for 1000 yens. Obi can start at 500. But if you go to speciality stores it can get really crazy.
As for the usually really expensive stuff, I'd say fruits and vegetables. It's not really expensive per say, just really expensive when compared to Europe. Foreign things and brands are usually also very expensive.
