About the time in Tokyo Prefecture
Sunrise today lands at 05:04 and sunset at 06:25 local time, giving 13h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.69, 139.69) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Tokyo Prefecture.
Around 14,187,176 people live in Tokyo Prefecture, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Tokyo Prefecture day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 00:00–08:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
