You'll be watching the Swallows at the Meiji Jingu Stadium though, not the Giants as they play at the Tokyo Dome. Personally, I'd definitely pick the Swallows for a first game - the stadium is a more "authentic" ball park than the Tokyo Dome though the Dome does have the novel attraction of a rollercoaster attached to it.
