Japanese Website Scraper Pack 🇯🇵

Specialized web scraper for major Japanese websites. Handles Japanese-specific challenges: character encoding (Shift_JIS, EUC-JP), cookie consent walls, and locale-specific pagination patterns.

Supported Websites

Source	Data Type	Example Use
Yahoo! Japan News	News articles	Media monitoring, sentiment analysis
Rakuten	Product listings	Price monitoring, market research
Suumo	Real estate	Property data, rental market analysis
Tabelog	Restaurant reviews	F&B research, location intelligence
Hot Pepper Gourmet	Restaurants	Dining data, regional analysis
Custom	Any Japanese site	General-purpose scraping

Why This Actor?

Most scrapers on Apify Store are built for English websites. Japanese sites have unique challenges:

Character encoding: Many older Japanese sites use Shift_JIS or EUC-JP instead of UTF-8
Consent walls: Japanese privacy regulations require specific cookie handling
Pagination patterns: Japanese sites often use non-standard pagination (e.g., ?PG=2, ?pn=2)
Mobile-first layouts: Many Japanese sites serve different HTML to mobile vs desktop
Anti-bot measures: Major sites like Tabelog and Rakuten have sophisticated bot detection

This Actor handles all of these out of the box.

Tips

For Tabelog and Hot Pepper, use Japanese area names (e.g., "渋谷", "新宿") for best results
Yahoo News categories: domestic, world, business, entertainment, sports, it-science
Rakuten supports category codes for more precise filtering
Use proxy configuration with Japan-based IPs for sites that geo-restrict content
