Ohanasi Kagawa Event Pre-Participation Checklist

✅ I have reviewed the event flow and important notes

If this is your first time joining, you may be unsure how the event works or how you’ll connect with international participants. Please check the event flow in this article before attending.

✅ I understand that a participation confirmation based on balance adjustments is sent 24 hours before the event

To ensure one-on-one interactions between Japanese and international participants, we adjust participant numbers 24 hours before the event.

This means:

• We aim for a 1:1 ratio of Japanese and international participants.
• If, for example, there are 30 Japanese sign-ups and only 25 international sign-ups, the last 5 Japanese participants to register will not be able to join.

Spots are confirmed on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you’re not selected to join:

• You can try registering earlier for the next event.
• You can also enable “last-minute spot notifications” for cancellations. However, a spot is not guaranteed, even if a notification is received.

✅ I understand that if I cannot communicate due to technical issues, I may be asked to leave

If you can’t hear your partner, they can’t hear you, or your camera doesn’t work, our staff will assist you.
If the issue persists, you may be asked to leave the event.

Smartphone participation is possible, but often causes issues.
We strongly recommend using a computer or tablet and Google Chrome or Safari browsers.
Please note: We cannot provide support for internet or device problems.

✅ I have created a Remo account

The event takes place on an online platform called Remo.
First-time users must create an account using a Google account or email address.

✅ My display name in the event matches my Ohanasi Kagawa registration name

Many users find that the name shown in the event differs from their Ohanasi Kagawa profile name.
This often happens when registering for Remo with a Google account, which uses your Google name by default.

If the names don’t match, it can cause issues during attendance check or seat matching.

To fix this:

• Click your icon in the top right corner of the Remo screen.
• Click the “Edit” button to update your name.

Our staff may also contact you to request a name change.
