Last night I was talking to an associate of mine at a tech related event here in Tokyo.
Seems like there are actually 4 public domain backorder services here in Tokyo that work with getting dot jp domains.
This time last year there were only 2. One was public & one was on a you have to know someone basis.
Anyway the Japan drop catching services have just started basically & there is lots of things still to workout.
All of the companies do have very strong corporate connections which is vital.
Can’t say things are going to go Max this year but a domain market is starting to develop.
Hopefully one of these services will let me get a few of the domains they beat me too in the drop.
Why the sudden increase in Japanese backorder services?

Which japanese backorder service? The one based in Japan that just started did not publish this months list. The site was 2 months old. I know that one other registrar also lists their own domains.
