How to get from sofa to seat
- Open the store page
Nagoya and (third-party) Shibuya have numbers. - Use one channel
LINE coupons and bookings can be separate posts. - One sentence of intent
Class / ring / event name / headcount / time. - Reconfirm the day
Special closures.
The small print that actually bites
- Prizes are coins, passports, tickets and goods. The venue is not built as a cash payer.
- Copy that says “expected player-contract fulfilment” is sponsor-side language. Do not read it as a house-guaranteed prize pool.
- LINE coupons are store- and date-bound. The spring 2025 Shibuya ¥500 lottery is not automatically live today.
- Chip cash-out fees are tiered. Leaving with a short stack makes the session feel more expensive.
- No published list of excluded payment rails. Ask the cage about cards / PayPay.
- There is no sticky casino bonus. What you paid to enter that flight stays paid.
