Movie rental - 07-17-2007, 10:42 AM

Anyone knows where to rent English movies on DVD in Tokyo (other than those kiosks in the underground stations)? Those kiosks allow only for 1-day rental, very inconvenient. Cheers

You can do it at rental chain stores like RAKUYA. But one must first register as a member in order to do so. They have loads of english DVD titles.

tsutaya have heaps of English movies they usually have a overdubbed version and a english version with Japanese sub titles. All you have to do is become a member.

DVD rental - 07-18-2007, 01:45 PM

thanks for the suggestions but I don't understand Japanese. Is there any DVD rental shops for English speaking foreigners? I once when to a DVD rental shop and I was told that I cannot rent because I don't speak Japanese.

that is why we suggested tsutaya cause weve been there and we were able to rent it.

oh yeah dont forget your arc, if you don't have one you can't be member then u can't rent.
