Hello
Most of the shopping malls in Japan are open on all other dates than 1st of January. On 1 of January, most restaurants, shops and attractions are closed except for the shrines. There are few malls that are open on first of january as well and they have there "new years sales" starting on that date, because of this the malls will be full of people. Some of the stores that are open on January first are these: Parco (Shibuya,kichijoji and Ikebukuro), Laforet (Harajuku), Seibu (Shibuya and Ikebukuro), Tokyo Plaza (Harajuku), Roppongi hills (Roppongi) Omotesando hill (Shibuya)
Hope this helps you.
