A place to find and share Japanese TV content and resources.

日本のテレビ番組を共有する場。

What is /r/JTV?

/r/JTV is a place to find and share Japanese TV content and resources to easier follow Japanese TV shows regardless of where you live, and to share and find new interesting content to watch.

/r/JTVとは?

「日本国外から日本のテレビが見れなくて困る」という方のためのサブレである。
/r/JTVは日本の(日本製で日本人向けの)テレビ番組、またはその入手手段、を共有する場である。
※ドラマ、映画、アニメ、PV、コンサート、などは対象外

Is /r/JTV for me?

If you don't know any Japanese there might be occasional posts of interest here, but they can be hard to find. You will likely find more content of interest at /r/JapaneseGameShows.
/r/JTV assumes that subscribers can read and understand Japanese, so subtitled content is rare.

If you like Japanese TV and know enough Japanese to follow along, you are likely to find content of interest here.

/r/JTV is not a place to introduce Japanese TV to people who don't understand Japanese.


Content Guidelines

※ Content can be for example variety shows, comedy shows, manzai, rakugo, news, information shows, documentaries, interviews, talk shows, music shows, quiz shows, game shows, promotion for a drama/movie, sporting events, reality shows, etc..

Japanese should be the only language required to understand the content.

Content should be produced with the intention of airing on Japanese TV.

Web content produced for a Japanese audience (by more or less professional producers) is also allowed as long as it's interesting and similar enough to TV content.

Look at what other people are sharing, use your judgement, and ask if you are unsure.

Subtitled content is allowed, but a raw source is preferred when possible, especially if the subtitled content is translating and covering original onscreen Japanese text.

× Avoid any dubbed or subbed content that was not originally produced for a Japanese audience.

× Avoid any non-Japanese content that was not originally produced for a Japanese audience.

× Avoid movies, drama shows, anime, concerts and music videos. These are not in scope for /r/JTV, and most of them have their own subreddits.

Submission Guidelines

  • Full content (as opposed to a single segment from a show) is encouraged.
  • Newer content is encouraged, but older content is also welcome.
  • Try to avoid links that are region blocked or require registration.
  • Mirror links are welcome and encouraged both as top posts and as comments to existing posts.
  • Crossposting is encouraged.

Submission Naming

  • Please include detailed relevant information in the title when possible, such as type of content, appearing guests, and subtitle language when applicable.
  • Please use bracket tags in the post title to describe content when possible. Look at other posts and use what you find appropriate.
  • If you know the air date please put this in the title. To make this consistent it should be put at the beginning of the title as a bracket tag, like [150131].

General Guidelines

  • If you find a dead link please add a comment, or message the OP or the mods so they can mark it as down.
  • If a link you have posted goes down, you can add link flair to show that it's down.
  • Avoid any and all spoilers!

Please do not downvote submissions

※ This is to not discourage people from posting.

If you don't like a post, then upvote another post that you do like instead, or post something yourself.

If you think that something doesn't belong or goes against the guidelines, then please make a nice comment or send a message to the mods.

Is the only difference among the 4 "JapanTV" service version (Mini, Basic, etc.) the number of channels + more questions.

Hi,

We've been using IKORTV app on Firestick 4K MAX for awhile, but I am looking to get Japanese TV and Dramas/movies now also, so I was asking about it one the streamingasia support and they mentioned they have JapanTV service now, which sounds very much like IKORTV, but I have some questions:

Is the only difference among the product versions, the number of channels?

Also, what kinds of dramas and movies do they have on JapanTV?

I noticed that there are 2 different APKs on their site. One is for 64bit and the other is not. Which one should I use for a Firestick 4K MAX?

Thanks!!

Jim

I'm renting a Japanese TV server [2K,4K,Abema]

2K Channel List [地上波,BS,CS]

4K Channel List [BS4K]

2K Original Stream 1440x1080 30i MPEG2-TS

BS4K Original Stream 3840x2160 60p HEVC HDR

2K Server [8-Channel 地上波, 8-Channel 衛星(BS,CS)]

4K Server [4-Channel BS4K]

Recording Reservation Server

Time table

Hello, I'm back again.

I'm still renting Japanese TV Original Stream Server that I built in Tokyo 23-Ku, and this server extract and deliver 100% Original Stream in real-time

There is no any quality damage or delay, so it is theoretically the same as you watching TV in Japan.

And there is also an automatic recording reservation function.

Unlike other services, This serevr doesn't use the P2P function, so Users don't need a dedicated webpage and application, and users don't know the other user's IP.

Because there is a subtitle track, Users can translate subtitles in real time according to the client's settings.

With no P2P features, my server has a limited number of users, and it may be more expensive than other services, but considering that TV recordings sell for at least $1 per 60 minutes and real-time TS streams for at least $2 in TAOBAO, my server is x10 to x100 cheaper than those.

If you are interested in my server, please read my blog carefully and contact me on Telegram. (@kaito_6975)

Thank you.

Seeking OLD broadcast recordings

I'm a sucker for digital preservation, and I love music. I'm trying to track down old broadcasts from M-ON!/viewsic, specifically broadcasts of their music chart countdowns (Top 20, Top 100, etc) and having pretty much 0 luck in doing so. I'm especially looking for the December 1999 Top 100 Countdown, but pretty much any M-ON! broadcasts from back then would be awesome. If anyone knows a good source to look for these older broadcasts, I'd love to hear your suggestions! I've looked around on just about every major site I could think of, including the Internet Archive.

NHK early morning kids’ TV

I have tried as much as I could to find archives of NHK’s fantastic early morning programming for kids to no avail.

I’m particularly interested in the currently running segments “0655” and “The Wakey Show”, anybody knows where I could get this stuff? Seems like no one cares to archive it, and the NHK app wouldn’t work for me at all.

How is MomoTV?

Recently, I discovered a Japanese IPTV service called MomoTV, which is available in Mini, Basic, and Plus. I found that it's sold on HDMall Asian IPTV Online Store. To those who have used MomoTV, is HDMall this a safe place to buy a 3-day trial? Does it really have a webplayer where you can watch it on a web browser? Is there a channel list for Mini, Basic, and Plus available? The reason for my questions is because MomoTV is a bit under-documented compared to other Japanese IPTV services, such as Nozomi and YoiTV.

Subscribing to FOD

I’m in the US and I am trying to subscribe to FOD to watch full episodes of a drama on Fuji TV. However, FOD only accepts credit cards with a billing address in Japan.

How can I watch full episodes of an entire drama on Japanese TV? TVer removes episodes after 1 week or so after airing. I believe that FOD retains past episodes but won’t accept credit cards from outside of Japan. Are there any other options?

Where can I watch live Japanese TV?

We are living currently in Mexico and we used MujiTV to consume Japanese Television using our laptop, unfortunately the site has no way to pay for the subscription, we get a message saying that it’s no longer working, do you have an alternative website where we can watch Live TV?

Kids Shows (like おかあんといっしょ and いないいないばあっ!)

So I recently had a kid who I’m hoping to teach Japanese to. Her mother doesn’t speak Japanese though, so I’m the only one in the immediate household who speaks it to her. I’m hoping to supplement this to some degree with kids shows, especially since it’s hard for me to model interaction with her by myself. The problem is that because of time difference, live stream channels rarely match up to a time that I’d be able to watch with her.

In particular I’m looking for shows like おかあんといっしょ and いないいないばあっ! Does anybody have any resources for where I could stream or download these shows and others like them?

Jstarkan help - different on pixel tablet

Hi all, I've installed jstarkan on my Google pixel tablet, however there is no option to fast forward or rewind? I've tried it on my phone, and it gives the option when I tap the screen.

Can I force the pixel to treat the app like a phone install rather than a tablet? Is that what's stopping it?

Thanks

Has anyone done the sketchy ebook thing for JapanTV renewal?

If you're trying to renew JapanTV, instead of using your paypal to get an auth code you now need to go to a separate website and buy an ebook using your credit card for the value of the subscription that you want.

I'm too scared to do it. If JapanTV really is too far gone, are there any alternatives? I've seen HimawariTV mentioned here but it looks like they have the same registration process.

I built the world's first 4K original extraction server

Playing 4K 4-Channels at same time

BS4K 4-Channel Server

BS4K 4-channel server

Hello, I finally completed to built a server that extract the original MMT/TLV stream of BS4K 4-channel at the same time. (It's World's First!)

It extracts and decrypt the original 4K stream (MMT/TLV), then converts it into a readable format in real time without loss of quality.

I don't think everyone can watch it smoothly because the 4K stream is so big (33Mbps). But there's also a 4K Reservation Server, so it's not a problem to record.

Currently, I'm beta testing for Plan 2 users until the server is verified.

The 2K 16-channel original stream server is still working fine.

If you are interested in my server, please refer to my blog.

Is there an AI subtitle generating app that will work with Japanese Live TV?

Does anyone know of an app that will run on an Android Device (NVidia Shield Pro) to provide live captions/subtitles of Japanese programs playing on said tv?

There are a TON of AI captioning services and apps out there, but they all seen to bel for uploaded videos, or youtubers working on youtube shorts and such. So far I've found nothing that says it's capable of overlaying subtitles onto your smart TV screen based on what is currently playing.

Hopefully the above makes sense, I know even google seems confused as to what I'm trying to track down.

  1. Basically I have an app for streaming Japanese TV channels
  2. This app runs on my NVidia Shield Pro device
  3. But this app it has no English subtitle/captions option as these are just raw/live Japanese TV channels
  4. So I'm looking for an app/service/subscription that will overlay English subtitles overtop of the Japanese TV broadcast.

I know the OpenAI's 'Whisper' app can do this using a PC it seems, but I'm not 100% sure even if can do that in real time which is what LiveTV would require.

Difficulty to find subtitles tracks for recently aired TV shows

I use Newskei to download videos, but since I'm still not that good at Japanese, I'd like to add dialogue transcripts/subtitle tracks to improve my understanding. Do you know if there’s an archive like newskei that stores them or something similar?? I know that many japanese shows offer the option to put them on when airing, so technically they exists in some way

Service recommendation.

Hi my family is japanese and my grandma only speaks japanese and after tv Japan shut down she hasn’t had japanese television and it seems to have gotten her down. I was wondering if there were any services I could get and put on the tv that she could use to watch japanese television. We are willing to pay, I’m just not entirely sure on how to do this kind of stuff. Live tv would be the easiest for her to navigate as she is used to that.

HELP: I need to find a TV show from my childhood

I used to watch this episode of a show - or maybe it was a movie as a kid, but I don't remember the name.

It was based in a school/university/hospital and had a woman who really liked ramen and was stabbed, I think by a guy named Honda. And then the student's kept seeing yurei in the hallways.

I think one of the cast members was from V6 or another JPop band. I really want to find the show, but so far I wasn't able to :(
