pleasewatch.passed.jp
An article site where we introduce manga, anime, films, and other entertainment we'd love you to watch or read. We write from our own angle, from the appeal of talked-about titles to the highlights of hidden gems that aren't yet widely known. Every article is free to read, so you can lightly find your next favorite work. To watch or read the works themselves, please use the relevant streaming services or bookstores.
Our Media
passed.jp also runs media that support getting better at games and meeting new works.
passed games
a game video channel about getting better centered on Splatoon 2, also covering popular games like Fortnite and Monster Hunter, delivering ways to improve and positioning tips in an easy-to-follow, calm commentary style. Just as golf has lesson pros, games too have the fun of being taught and getting better — from that idea, we've built up videos that go beyond just showing play to dig into how you can actually improve. The joy of getting better connects people across generations and walks of life. We hope it becomes a reason for parents and children, and friends, to spend time getting better together.
Uncut
On Steam, countless hidden gems sink into the sea of search results without ever reaching ten reviews. Uncut is a curation-style discovery platform that carefully picks such overlooked Japanese games by taste and genre and introduces them to players abroad. It's designed not as a place where we make games for you to play, but as a place to meet others' masterpieces that the world hasn't found yet. Centered on genres for the discerning — deckbuilding roguelikes, turn-based tactics, logic puzzles — we put the appeal of each hidden Japanese game into words and carry it across borders, one title at a time. We offer the very experience of finding a game before you play it, as a discovery channel bringing overlooked Japanese games to the world.
