STARTO Entertainment Introduction

Most of the male groups under STARTO (previously known as Johnny’s) begin their journey as ジャニーズJr. (similar to trainees), building experience and popularity with the ultimate goal of debuting through CD/DVD releases. Once they debut, they are recognized as “debut groups.”

The Japanese official website offers a wider selection of merchandise at more affordable prices, and fans can also get access to new products first! Currently, the site separates “Product List” and “Shop” into two different pages. You can browse the “Product List” page to check the sales locations for various items, as some products are exclusive to specific stores or only available online. Use Buy&Ship’s forwarding or proxy service to easily purchase your favorite idol’s merchandise from the “Shop.”
