It seems that the tournament will be broadcast on television this year as well, but it will mainly be a recorded broadcast on BS, so complaints such as "I don't have a BS subscription, so I can't watch it!" or "I can watch BS, but I want to watch the live broadcast!" have not been resolved.

Difference from last year
I wrote a similar article last year.
(Thanks to you, we received a lot of feedback. Thank you very much.)
The process is basically the same, but there are two major differences that I will explain first.
It is now possible to display Japanese.
The types and prices of passes available for purchase have changed.
I am very grateful that it is now available in Japanese. However, for those who used it last year, please be careful about the second point.
Now let's explain the steps.
How to watch Volleyball World TV
Create an account
First, create a Volleyball World TV account.Login pageWhen you open it, the following screen will appear, so click on "sign upClick
If the page is not in Japanese, tap the flag icon in the upper right and select the Japanese flag to switch to Japanese display.
Choose a pass to purchase
Next, choose the pass you want to purchase. There are three types of passes: monthly pass, annual pass, and beach volleyball pass. I don't think many people will buy the beach volleyball pass, so I'll focus on the remaining two.Monthly pass is 999 yen, annual pass is 9599 yenBoth allow you to watch all videos in Volleyball World TV (including videos of the Italian league), both live and archived. Personally, I recommend purchasing a monthly pass first (I have an annual pass, of course (lol)).
Please note that the contract is automatically renewed, so be sure to pay attention to the renewal date so you don't have to pay extra money.
You can also purchase passes from the app described below, but the price will be higher than the browser version, so we recommend purchasing passes through the browser.
