Interview cooperation:THE AXE THROWING BAR Asakusa
Do you ever have moments when you feel like you're a wild animal?
It could be when you are filleting a fish or removing the bones from a chicken...
That's not the case, is it?
But when you go camping with others or play airsoft, don't you sometimes feel like your sensibilities are freed from the mundane world and that you are being brought to life in the wild?
...I no longer understand what you're saying.
But basically, a shop where you can have this extraordinary experience has suddenly appeared in Asakusa!
The name is"THE AXE THROWING BAR Asakusa store"!
This shop is pretty crazy; you can actually throw axes as much as you want!
Axes are not something that people normally use, and I'm sure there are many people who have never even held one.
This time, I would like to introduce you to a restaurant that will bring out that wild instinct.
Maximum exhilaration! An exciting new sport that's all the rage in America!!
AXE THROWING is an entertainment service in which participants throw axes in the same way as darts and compete for the highest total score.
After gaining popularity in the US and Canada, it has finally arrived in Japan! You can unleash your wild instincts while having fun with friends over a drink.
In addition to axes, you can also throw shuriken, knives, and metal playing cards for an additional fee, providing a 100% exciting experience that you would never get to experience in your everyday life!
Anyone can forget about their humanity for a moment and become a wild hunter!
※Please observe etiquette.
Now let's take a look at the rules of AXE THROWING.
Basic rules
The shop is divided into the first floor and the basement, and the axe throwing game area is on the basement floor.
When you enter the throwing area, the strong smell of wood wafts through the air and your excitement reaches its peak!
And we asked a regular customer at the restaurant, who won the previous tournament, to explain the basic rules. Please have a look.
The rules are similar to darts in that it involves throwing, but it is simpler.
However, as I will explain later, throwing an axe is incredibly difficult!
At first, I couldn't reach the target and just kept hitting the floor (^_^;)
But before long, it seems like my wild DNA has woken up and I'm starting to get a bit fuzzy...
Once I got into it, it was an incredibly refreshing feeling, and I could become addicted to it.
There are various ways to throw it, but throwing with one hand is for more advanced throwers, while swinging the axe down with both hands is for beginners.
Either way, I think you need some strength.
So let's interview Kawahigashi-san, CEO of Brick Wall Co., Ltd., the company that runs Axe Bar, to find out the secret to this fun.
Interview with the President of Axbar
It will be a "sports bar where you can throw axe." It will be a sports bar where you can enjoy "AXE THROWING," a new sport that is currently popular mainly in the United States, while enjoying drinks and finger food in a similar atmosphere to a darts bar.
How well known is it in your country?
It is known as a sport that originated in Canada, and its recognition has rapidly increased over the past two to three years, especially in the United States.
For example, in the United States, an association has been established and there are more than 500 AXE THROWING BARs. In addition, AXE THROWING tournaments organized by the association are broadcast on ESPN, a sports channel that also broadcasts the NBA.
Meanwhile, in Japan, the only two stores where you can experience AXE THROWING are our own "THE AXE THROWING BAR Asakusa" and "REEAST ROOM Ikebukuro". "THE AXE THROWING BAR Asakusa" is the first in Japan to offer AXE THROWING in the bar style that is popular in the US and Canada.
As a result, awareness of the product is still low in Japan, but we believe that awareness will grow in the future.
Please tell me the best way to play or have fun.
AXE THROWING combines the value of the "extraordinary" aspect of the act of axe throwing itself with the value of it being a "sport" in which participants can compete for points.
Therefore, it can be used at various times and in various situations. For example, it can be used during events such as dates, or simply as a leisure activity such as playing darts with friends and competing for points.
Why "axe" now?
I don't have any particular preference for axes. I was interested in AXE THOWING.
What do you want to spread through Axe Bar in the future?
The Japan Axe Throwing Association, a general incorporated association, regularly holds the Japan Axe Throwing Tournament, a competition to determine the best axe thrower in Japan.
If you enjoy axe throwing at our store, please enter!
Additionally, AXE THROWING has been featured as a "sport" by the global media outlet ESPN in the United States.
It is self-evident that the determining factor for a sport to exist is whether or not safety is guaranteed.
In other words, AXE THEROWING has established itself as a sport that can be enjoyed safely.
Of course, it can be dangerous if played incorrectly, but our store has trained staff who can teach you how to enjoy AXE THROWING safely, so please feel free to visit our store.
Thank you for taking the time to answer this interview!
I actually tried throwing it
I actually tried holding an axe and throwing it!
I was terrible at it, so here's a video by editor M-chan! ↓
At first, I couldn’t get the hang of it, and although I was able to reach it, it didn’t penetrate…
Unleashing my wild instincts! I was able to hit the target perfectly near the center!
Congratulations on leaving humanity!

In addition to axes, there are many other types of throwing objects available. *Optional fee applies
