Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you’re new to airsoft or a seasoned veteran, there’s always something new to discover.
In this FAQ, we aim to address the most common questions and provide detailed information to help enhance your airsoft experience.
Ideally for your first game, it is better to rent equipment, but there are also some things you can bring from home to cut some of these costs.
Here are our recommendations for what to bring on your first time trying airsoft.
What to Bring | Note |
Gloves | something thin enough to be able to hold a gun and pull a trigger. Thick winter gloves won’t be any good |
Hat or Cap | to protect forehead from being hit |
Thin Scarf or Neck Gaiter | to protect neck from shots |
Suitable Clothing | if you want to blend in, greens that would match foliage are ideal |
Hiking / Trekking Footwear | outdoor fields usually have rough terrain, so supportive, sturdy footwear is ideal |
Spare Clothes | if you do not rent clothing, bringing spares is ideal as you will get dirty and sweaty |
Body Wipes | if you change clothes, and are sweaty, they will refresh you |
Drinks | you will be running around a lot, so staying hydrated is important and will be cheaper to bring it than buy it |
Snacks | fields often have snacks, but they tend to cost more than at a convenience store |

In short, yes.
Those that cannot communicate or follow the guidance and rule explanation will not be allowed to play. So it is always best to be able to understand Japanese or have an interpreter friend with you.
(Note, all games hosted by us will be in English and have Japanese interpreters)
One question we get a lot is, “How much does airsoft hurt?”
Since the legal limit is 0.98 Joules of power from an airsoft gun, when you get hit it will sting for a minute or two, depending where you are hit as well as what you are wearing.
For example.
If you are hit from 30 metres away, it will feel like someone pinched you. While it will sting, it will stop hurting a minute or two after.
If you are hit from 10 metres away, it will hurt more and you may bruise.
This is why we recommend to wear suitable clothing to take the brunt of the force and lessen any pain or discomfort you experience.
Plate carriers, gloves, face protection and a shemagh will help protect vital areas.
