Happy 1-year anniversary, Naacord 💚 At first, we were just looking for a place to cry together without the toxicity of net benkei…but now, Naachan is embarking on their solo journey, speaking their truth, and finding the success they deserve in the music world! It’s amazing 🥰

Hi everyone! I made a discord channel for Naachan if you are interested in joining. I will maintain it at least until her graduation. I just wanted a place where we can cry together without all the hate comments from toxic fans. discord.gg/ArArsw7S

Omg this is literally the problem. Some people have never travelled to Japan, nor do they have friends or family staying in Japan. This guide is useless if the first hurdle (a Japanese phone number) is already an issue for most people.

A Foreigner’s Guide to Japanese Concert Tickets Yesterday’s Nano post caused a lot of discussion, and one of the biggest concerns people brought up - right after regional restrictions - was how difficult it is for foreigners to buy concert tickets in Japan. A lot of people mentioned the recent Arashi situation as one of the worst examples of how inaccessible the system can feel for overseas fans. Since I’ve gone through the process multiple times myself, here’s a short guide that may help other overseas fans. To buy tickets in Japan as a foreigner, you basically need 3 things: - A Japanese phone number - An account on Japanese ticketing services - A way to pay with a Japanese-compatible card The good news is: all of these problems can be solved either during a single trip to Japan, or with help from a friend/family member visiting Japan. First: the phone number. The easiest option is getting a SIM/eSIM from services like Hanacell, Sakura Mobile or Mobal. Important: it MUST include an actual Japanese phone number, not just mobile data. Some newer eSIM options can even be shipped internationally to selected countries (sadly not Poland yet). Providers using Docomo infrastructure — like Sakura Mobile and Mobal — also support roaming, meaning in theory you can still receive SMS verification codes and calls in your home country while keeping your Japanese number active. Once activated, just insert the SIM/eSIM into your phone and you’re ready for SMS verification. Next step (registration): registering on ticketing platforms. The most important ones are: Ticket Pia eplus Lawson Ticket (L-Tike) TIGET Most concerts in Japan use lotteries, while some are first-come-first-served sales. Payment compatibility is often the hardest part. eplus usually accepts Revolut cards, but the others can be inconsistent. That’s where ANA Pay becomes extremely useful. If you create an account with ANA, you can activate ANA Pay and generate a virtual Japanese card for ticket purchases. You can top it up like a prepaid card using foreign Mastercard cards. Once you have all of this set up, there’s nothing stopping overseas fans from entering lotteries and buying tickets legally under their own information - no scalpers, no shady middlemen. The Japanese ticketing system is absolutely frustrating at times, but it’s far less impossible than many people think. Hopefully this helps more overseas fans enjoy Japanese concerts properly and without unnecessary stress. Thank you @nanonano_me for opening this discussion. I genuinely hope more overseas fans will be able to support Japanese music and artists properly, and I’m happy to help however I can.

내 나라에 안 와주니까 굳이굳이 비행기값, 숙박비까지 지불하면서 일본에 가서라도 좀 보려고 하는데 1. 일본 핸드폰 번호 필요 2. 일본 집주소 필요 3. 해외 신용카드는 받지 않음 4. 간혹가다 열리는 외국인 티켓 자리는 대부분이 회장의 가장 구석임 그래서 포기하고 집에서 라이브 스트리밍이라도 보려고 하면 1. 해외에서는 시청할 수 없는 동영상 2. 해외계정으로는 설치할 수 없는 어플 모두의 축제라면서 이렇게 외국인을 배척하는 듯한, 오직 일본 자국민을 위한 공연이라는 느낌을 대놓고 드러내니까 우리가 일본의 시스템 자체에 대해 얘기하는 거예요. 팬들은 사랑하는 아티스트를 위해서라면 어디든 날아갈 수 있지만, 날아가기도 전에 지쳐버려요.

It seems that the majority of comments are misunderstanding that I am talking about international shows, and not domestic shows. Though I understand and appreciate the opinions about the latter.

Is it because we don't buy enough? Don't listen enough? Don't subscribe enough? Is that really what you think, Japanese??? How could you possibly know that international fans aren't buying enough when we literally have to use shipping proxies just to send items to a warehouse inside Japan—simply because you don't even offer worldwide shipping? Or sometimes, we even have to pay people living in Japan to buy things for us because our foreign credit cards get rejected. So, how on earth are you collecting data to claim that we aren't doing enough? Sometimes, sending an artist abroad is an investment and a risk that the agency just has to take. When you haven't done any marketing or promotion for your artists overseas whatsoever, what kind of results are you expecting? Are you hoping their songs will magically market themselves without the company doing a single thing? That their online shows will just go viral on their own? Excuse me?? but we are still being region-locked out of accessing those media outlets most of the time. We can barely buy concert tickets to see them in Japan because we don't have a Japanese phone number or address. Even buying a CD—which shouldn't be hard because the people buying them are the ones who genuinely care about the artist's music—can still result in our credit cards being rejected just because they are from overseas. So, how can you expect an artist to become popular enough abroad to justify the investment of sending them there? You aren't lacking anything, Japanese. Your artists are incredible, they always work so hard. What is truly lacking is the vision of the people working behind the scenes. This habit of being afraid of everything before even trying is a mindset that will never let you move forward. Making cautious decisions is a good thing, but that should only happen after you have fully done your duty as their agency first.

If you’re a fan of Japanese music and live outside of Japan, I would be so grateful if you take a moment to read this🙏 If you’ve ever wondered why more Japanese artists don’t reach out and do shows & tours overseas, the reason is pretty simple and the main one is the hurdle of selling tickets. There is only a SMALL percentage of artists that can rely on the power of big labels/agents to promote their shows internationally. Even in Japan, selling out shows is a lot more challenging than in past years, due to people just being satisfied with digital content. And considering it costs even more to bring a tour overseas, you can imagine how many artists are willing to LOSE money by doing so, if any. It’s not just about the artist not being popular or sufficient enough, or that they don’t have the will to bring their content to fans around the world. In fact, there are so many fellow artists around me that I highly respect, telling me they wish they could do shows overseas, but know it’s not realistically possible, and as someone who yearns for the same thing, it really, really hurts inside. More importantly, it hurts most that fans around the world will often never ever be able to see a show of their favorite Japanese artist. I’m not trying to ask for pity, nor demand anything, unless this resonates with you. But if it does, and you want to know what you can do to help us reach you with our music, it’s really very simple. Please go follow artist’s socials. Please go subscribe to their Youtube channels. Please find them on Spotify. Please interact with them by commenting and letting them know you’re there to support them. Please share your passion with the people around you. AND PLEASE, don’t miss the opportunity to buy a ticket and GO to their shows, when that miraculous opportunity comes, whether it’s a solo or event stage. I am not exaggerating when I say it IS a miracle and it might never happen again. I know writing all this isn’t gonna change much, but I just hope it reminds you that every listener, every fan, every second of support matters in keeping music alive, particularly in this generation. Thanks for listening, if you made it this far🫶 Let’s keep Rocking On. NANO

The actual reason K-pop went mainstream while J-pop is stagnant is because you can watch K-pop live stages (Music bank, Show Music Core, etc) on YT officially, while J-pop live stages (MUSIC FAIR, MUSIC STATION) are still region locked and automatically DMCAd

Japan artists post these all the time but fail to understand that their entertainment industry inherently hates foreigners. From region locking music digitally to needing a Japanese address and phone number to buy concert tickets… it gets exhausting, honestly.
