FAQ

What options of the STUDIO SHOOTING PLAN are popular?

Our most popular option is the one that allows the use of a variety of items during the shoot. With the basic plan, only a sword can be used. However, for an additional 2,000 JPY per group, you may also use spears, matchlock guns, bows, a fog machine, and projection mapping during the photo session.

What is the difference with S rank and A rank?

The difference between A Rank and S Rank lies mainly in the price and quality of the armor itself. This price difference reflects the materials used, the level of craftsmanship, and the amount of time required to produce each piece. That said, even A Rank armor is very well made—highly detailed and by no means cheap-looking.

As a reference, adult A Rank armor typically ranges from approximately 500,000 to 1,500,000 JPY, while S Rank armor ranges from around 1,500,000 to 6,000,000 JPY.

Should I bring anything with me?

Since you’ll be wearing a kabuto (helmet), your hairstyle may get a bit messy—so it’s a good idea to bring a brush or comb. Also, don’t forget your camera or smartphone! Feel free to snap plenty of photos and videos to capture all the fun memories!
