OUR STORY
Our Story
JAPANアクスタ is a stage to share and a place to earn for everyone who makes someone smile – in the nightlife districts, on stage, or on the other side of a screen. It is also a place to carry this precious culture out to the world.
Why we created JAPANアクスタ
People who work at cabaret clubs and host clubs, cosplayers, regional and underground idols, maids, and creators who bring characters to life.
Day and night, you shine with everything you have for the people who come to see you. Yet there have been few places where that charm could be turned into something tangible, delivered, and properly connected to income.
So we built a place where anyone can safely sell the acrylic stand (acrylic "akusuta") – a way to keep your favorite close at hand – under their own name. That place is JAPANアクスタ.
Three pillars
A stage to share
Share your charm, photos and a few words with many people through genre pages and rankings – and meet new fans along the way.
A place to earn
When your acrylic stands sell, the sales become your earnings. Fans can also support you directly with a "tip".
Culture for the world
Available in Japanese plus seven other languages. We share Japan's nightlife and "oshi-katsu" fan culture with fans around the world.
Reaching out to the world
Japan's nightlife, idols, cosplay and anime & manga culture draw attention from all over the world. But language barriers sometimes keep their charm from reaching people.
JAPANアクスタ can be viewed in the following eight languages. Fans overseas can browse the pages and support a seller they like by sending a tip.
A tip is ¥1,000 each. Credit card only, and nothing is shipped. Available from overseas too.
* Orders for products such as acrylic stands can only be delivered to addresses within Japan.
