Bean-throwing demons, sixteen live houses firing at once, Friday night community, and the best wings in Nagoya. This week delivers.
Drive Out Demons
Osu Kannon's Setsubun festival turns winter's end into a full-contact spectator sport. Roasted beans fly, demons scatter, and a treasure ship carrying the Seven Gods of Fortune parades from Kibō no Hiroba Square to Osu Kannon. Feb 3 is when you throw soybeans at misfortune and mean it.

16 Venues This Weekend
Dera Rock Festival wires together sixteen live houses across Sakae for two days this weekend. One wristband gets you into everything. No main stage, no schedule you have to follow. Just doors opening, bands playing, and crowds moving between rooms when something staggers them.

TGIF This Friday
The Tokai Japan Canada Society's monthly TGIF happens this Friday at Midtown BBQ. No program, no speeches, just people showing up after work to talk. It's been running for twenty years because it's quietly dependable—one of Nagoya's most reliable communities.

Best Wings in Nagoya
Furaibo serves succulent, tender, meaty wings that make Sekai no Yamachan look like an imposter. Thirty years in business and still the best chicken wings anywhere. Stylish horigotatsu seating, kind staff, and a menu that works for families or first-time visitors adjusting to Japanese food.
