This is entertainment!
Too much fun for a Wednesday afternoon at 1:30pm! This show was really cool, fun, colorful, and just a total blast! My 20 year old son and I went and thoroughly enjoyed our selves. Great snacks, comfy seats, cozy venue, outstanding performers, rock music, drinks, what else can I say? If you are a snobby orchestra person maybe you would not enjoy it. BUT if you love live music and energetic performances this is for you. Each act was so unique from the other. Nothing like anything I have ever seen before (which is A LOT). HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF YOU ARE A PERSON THAT LOVES TO HAVE FUN!
Response from the operator: Dear Rachel, Thank you for this fantastic review! We're so happy that you and your son had a total blast on a Wednesday afternoon. Hearing that the show was unlike anything you've seen before is the best compliment our performers could receive. We'll be sure to pass your words on to the whole team. We hope to see you both again in Tokyo! Warm regards, KOIKOI JAPAN TOUR

A ton of fun
This show is a ton of fun. I have not laughed as hard in years. Highly recommended for a zany, over the top show, with enthusiastic dancers/musicians/singers and great costumes !
Response from the operator: Dear Robert, Thank you for such a fun review! Hearing that you haven't laughed that hard in years is the best compliment our performers could receive. We'll be sure to pass your words on to the dancers, musicians and singers — they put everything into each costume and every scene. We hope to see you again in Tokyo! Warm regards, KOIKOI JAPAN TOUR

Disappointed
If I could provide zero stars I would. My son who is 16 and I showed up for this experience, checked in ahead of time, placed our items in our locker and before we were seated were told that we couldn’t come in due to my son being under 18. I politely showed one of the staff members the booking which I made months ago which made zero mention of the age requirement, I also showed the vender my conversation via Viator where I mentioned my sons age when selecting a meal. Even after showing the staff this, we were still turned away, zero refund and zero accountability on their end. I asked what made the samurai show inappropriate for individuals under 18 and I was told that this specific venue shares a stage on alternate nights with a women’s cabaret show, so because of that the entire venue is deemed inappropriate for individuals under 18 even when the cabaret show isn’t running. They truly need to BOLD and place in the title that “INDIVIDUALS UNDER 18 NOT ALLOWED” the marketing in itself screams and lures in children & teens with the vibrant colors and whimsical vibe. This was a trip for my sons 16th birthday and to run into this was a let down for the both of us. I am still waiting for a refund of $126

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks cost?
+
Prices start at ¥8,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks take?
+
Plan for about 1.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1.7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 1.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Shinjuku: Izakaya Food Tour (3-4 Stops, 14+ Tastings), Tokyo: Asakusa Senso-ji Temple & Old Town Walking Tour, Matcha Making Class in Tokyo with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks?
+
Included: Snacks; and All Fees and Taxes. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Tokyo. Standard cancellation terms apply.
What do travelers say about Futuristic Show at Samurai Restaurant with Meal or 2 Drinks?
+
