Back in August of this year, recordings of the Japanese live-action stage plays for Naruto, My Hero Academia, and Sailor Moon were streamed online by Japan 2.5D Stage Play World for fans in Canada, the United States, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Singapore to enjoy without having to travel to Japan.
Now, the whole world, excluding the Middle East, mainland China, North Korea and Russia can enjoy these performances with the same comfort through Japan 2.5D Stage Play World. Two new plays — one each of Naruto and Sailor Moon — join the existing list of events starting next month.
Called 2.5D, for two-and-a-half dimensional for the sights and sounds of the live-action musical stage performance, some 2.5 million people attend these shows in theatres across Japan each year according to the Japan 2.5D Stage Play World website.
