It depends what accounts you follow
Yes and no to that female in the shot, she certainly draws the eye and being a single person instead of a group it is more mysterious and you can paint your own story more as opposed to say a bunch of kids in uniform.
As for recreating it 100% the same, that is never my goal, my goal is to go to that location and get a photo i am most happy with. Also, that photo with where the sun is suggests it is a morning shot. With partial snow on Mt Fuji it's from Autumn to early Spring time. I would figure early 7am, hence there is a lack of traffic and people in the photo.
I will not be able to get there for that hour as I am not going to be staying overnight in the area so I am hoping for a sunset shot, but the sun will be more behind Mr Fuji, slight to the right. And it will have a lot more people. It will look completely different.
