Ratings and reviews

For those of you saying you paid for the subscription and the app still won't work, you require a VPN as it's an app exclusive to Japan, so it won't work anywhere else. Stop giving the app bad reviews if you don't do your research first. It's a great app if you're trying to learn Japanese. You just need a VPN first before you can watch anything. Wish it did have subtitles though.

Mainly you can only watch it with a VPN that you can turn on and locate it to any Japanese city. However, if you get off of the app, it does have a mini player but tends to turn off when you go back to the app. After that you'll have to start over again... But overall, really good

I don't know how to put this Been following and commenting on their ig handle (and somehow the delete mt comment) regarding original English commentary of wwe shows and ppv I am living in Japan but not an expert in Japanese and yet I am being forced to watch Japanese commentary WWE shows by default Not to mention, the entire UI of the app is scripted in Japanese, unlike the new apps that follow the device's language
