About This Trend

ファンクラブ (Fan Club) is a membership service offered to dedicated fans of celebrities, music groups, or sports teams, providing exclusive benefits such as early ticket access, special content, and merchandise.

The trend is currently surging due to recent announcements by popular Japanese entertainment groups, such as 嵐 (Arashi), who revealed the closure of their fan club in 2026 following their upcoming disbandment. Additionally, other groups like Juice=Juice and New School Leaders are promoting their official fan clubs with exclusive events and perks, attracting significant attention from fans. .
