Any cites to lurk/participate in japanese written communication?

Im a fan of imageboard format, and of course i’ve tried 2chan, but posting there is restricted to japanese ip only, so maybe you can recommend me something?

Edit: no, i cant use VPN for a reason

Twitter is huge in Japan

Japanese people love to communicate via Twitter. For better or worse, Twitter is widely popular among the Japanese.

can’t you use vpn? am just curious

Thanks, i havent thought of that!

Well, i would like to, but 1) judjing from my experience with 4chan, these sites ban you if they feel that you are using VPN 2) since visa and mastercard are now banned in my country, i’ll not be able to buy foreign vpn. Have not heard of good domestic VPN’s, or those that’ll let me mimic japanese IP for free

protonmail.com has a vpn service even for free accounts, including 10 servers for Japan.

University of Tsukuba has a free vpn service apparently as part of a research project.
