Japanese-language radio stations
Japanese is heard on air mostly in Japan, so this guide starts there. It lists Japanese-language stations from Japan, then by genre, from anime and pop to J-pop and rock in Japanese. A station is included when its own listing names Japanese as one of its languages.

How these stations were chosen
- Stations come from the Radio Browser directory and the radio.net listings we import. Each section uses the tag, language or country shown under its heading, checked against the station’s own listing.
- Only stations whose stream passed its latest automatic check and plays over a secure (https) connection are listed. Duplicate entries and names that are just lists of keywords are left out, and no network gets more than two places per section.
- Within a section, stations checked by hand come first, then the others in the popularity order of the directory they come from (radio.net ranking, Radio Browser listens). Nobody pays to appear, and these are not ratings of our own.
- The lists refresh automatically every few hours, so stations can come and go. Guide text reviewed on 2026-10-23.
