Speaking of Shikoku and earlier topic of rail passes, JR Shikoku just hiked theirs as well.
For context, the 7 day pass now costs the same as JR Sanyo-Sanin Area Pass(which covers almost all of JR West), and 1000 yen more than the Setouchi Area Pass(which covers north half of Shikoku and the whole stretch between Kyoto and Kokura).
I really fucking hope JR West keeps their prices long enough for me to buy an exchange voucher for my December trip(so until September since they're valid for 3 months)
