Travel to two countries (Japan and Taiwan) or prioritise one country for a longer stay?

I will be in Mainland China for work later in the year and I’m looking to take advantage of being in Asia before heading home to Europe.

I spent two weeks in Japan last year (Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo and Sapporo) and had the absolute best time. I definitely want visit again and I’ve heard great things about Sendai so I’ve chosen to pair a few days there with some time in Tokyo before flying to Taipei, another place I’ve always wanted to visit.

I’m pretty happy with my basic travel itinerary below, but I’m wondering if anyone has done a similar trip or thinks it would be better to prioritise one place instead of both Japan and Taiwan? I honestly don’t know if I’m unnecessarily trying to squeeze any time I can get in Japan and sacrificing more extensive travel in Taiwan…
