Pain Pain Go Away! Event Tickets on Sale, P2GA Headphones as Prizes
Story Note has opened general ticket sales for the real-world event for Pain Pain Go Away!, the mind-care typing adventure game developed under the company’s adventure-game brand Lorebard. The ‘Pain Pain Go Away! 1st Fan Meeting ~Itai no Itai no, Tondeike!~’ is set for September 23, 2026, at LOFT9 Shibuya in Tokyo, with producer and director Hitoshi Fujisawa attending as a guest. Fujisawa also serves as general director of the ARG brand Fourth Boundary, part of Story Note’s story-driven operation across genres. General tickets went on sale today, August 29, at 9:00 AM.
The event’s special lineup includes a ‘score attack’ typing competition pitting attendees against each other in typing skill, plus a present lottery open to those who order food at the venue. High scorers and lottery winners will receive exclusive original ‘P2GA Headphones’ that can only be obtained here. On top of that, all attendees will receive a ‘Ghost Girl Search Tissue’ as a bonus — a novelty item that lets fans play an ARG, making it a standout giveaway for devoted players.
Fujisawa’s ‘Ask Fujisawa Anything’ Q&A corner is still accepting questions on any title, not just this game, with submissions closing September 22 at 23:59. Question submitters must register for the KADOKAWA Game Linkage member service. Tickets are priced at 4,400 yen (~$30 / ~¥215) including tax, with a separate drink order required and free seating. General sales run from today, August 29, at 9:00 AM until September 23 at 12:00 PM, limited to four tickets per person. Tickets are electronic via the MOALA system and require a free Ticket Pia membership to purchase. Since alcohol is served, only attendees aged 20 and over may enter.
Doors open at 12:00 PM and the show starts at 1:00 PM on September 23, with a runtime of about 120 minutes. Besides Fujisawa, the guest lineup includes the game’s project chief, Story Note’s Typing Prince Rairai, and Osyo of Famitsu & Game no Dengenki. Organized by KADOKAWA Game Linkage, the event takes place at LOFT9 Shibuya on the first floor of KINOHAUS, an 11-minute walk from JR Shibuya Station. With exclusive prizes and an ARG-packed giveaway on offer, this fan meeting looks like a worthwhile outing for followers of the quirky typing adventure.
