I noticed the Japanese love of chocolate when I was there

. If anyone in the family loves chocolate - I would go high end and buy something locally in Tokyo (I don't think that chocolate travels well - especially if shipped). My personal favorite is Maison du Chocolat. It has a few boutiques in Tokyo and is available in several department stores there as well:
