Which of these universities should I pick in regards to quality of life?

I am a university student in Germany and am currently in the process of applying for an exchange year in Japan. I get to apply to three universities and then rank them based on preferences. Considering I am not just there for a few weeks but potentially an entire year I am unsure. Based on the quality of life of the cities, things to do, the people, etc., which universities should I pick? I am currently considering:

  1. Kyoto University
  2. Hokkaido University
  3. Osaka University

But also have the option for: Sophia University, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tohoku University.

Applications for Japan are very competetive and cost is definitelly a factor which is kind of what made me not pick the Tokyo based unis.

Any help would be appreciated 🙂
