I’ve received a couple of requests for a tutorial on how to register an account at Comi-comi studio, a Japanese-only BL shop which ships their BL items internationally by EMS. More info of other shops in my other article: Buying Boys Love Items Online.
Hope this tutorial helps :)
To begin, click on the Register link at the website shown in the image (translation in red) to go to the register page.
Step 1 of 2
You’ll most probably need an English text to Hiragana/Katagana converter to complete the registration.

Step 2 of 2 (end)
Check the information you entered and click Submit. Then you’re done!
Happy Shopping! ^^)/

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I just have a question about the mailing address. If you live in a country with states, do you enter that information after city or do you just leave it out altogether? It’s my first time buying and I don’t want to mess it up. uvu
@Gaarachee: I suggest that you include the state somewhere in the address field. Be as complete as possible to minimize errors or delays :D good luck!
Thank you for the registration tutorial! This was very helpful~ I have a quick question on the “Select a payment method” portion during the buying process. I don’t understand the three bullet points and what I should choose in each one that follow after you submit the expiration date to your card. The bullet points go in this order : 名義人, 分割選択 , 分割回数.
@spyderfly: Hop over to the How to Shop tutorial which will give you a better idea :D Hope this helps!

Any idea how to fill in the my name for Hiragana/Kanjji/Katagana ? I can’t seem to find a way to convert my english name to Hiragana/Kanjji/Katagana …
I’m gonna try my chinese name for kanji then , english name for the Furigana …
If it can’t work … I’m gonna cry me a river … TT_TT
@yihn: I did include a link to a converter in the tutorial but u probably missed it. Lol~ I’ll update my post make it more obvious then ;)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
Uh, sorry about that.. Really didn’t see it ><
Anyway, thank you very very much !! :D *bows*
@yihnL No worries! Glad to be of help XD
hi, I want to register, but now they ask for a Japanese mobile email address! Do you know how to solve this problem? I’m really desperate :(
@shakina: try entering your normal email address and see if it works.
And you don’t have to tick the checkbox below.
Thank you for your fast answer!^^
I’m asking bc I live in a a building with many flat shares and it could probably be a problem for the postal assistant to find my flat… But if it’s by EMS then I guess it should be ok.
Though a friend of mine has registered with katagana too, but the name was eventually written in english bc they probably had her name on file from Rakuten. So do you think that it would be fine too, if I register my name in english though?
@Hanayoi: no worries! Gotta be fast in case you’re trying to order morimori’s clock? Lol
You can try registering your English name ^^ it’s just that I can’t remember if the system will stop the form from processing if it wasn’t entered as katakana.
Another thing you can do is when you checkout, you can write a message in the comment field indicating your English name and ask them to write your name in English when they post the package.
Great tutorial! Thanks!
But should not someone, who let’s say lives in Europe, register his name written with alphabetic characters? I mean, comicomi will probably send out the package with the purchaser’s name written in Hiragana/Kanjji/Katagana as registered, right? Will the order still be delivered properly, as the local postal office cannot read japanese?
@Hanayoi: Comicomi ships only by EMS and the postman will deliver to your doorstep and you’ll have sign for the delivery.
I registered my English name in katakana but so far have no problems with deliveries. I have been buying stuff from them for a few years.
Hmm so I guess it depends on your postman ^^;; but I believe it should be ok tho. Try checking with your local post office?
Edit: if your address is entered correctly, they should have no problems reaching you. You might want to inform your family that you’re expecting a package from Japan too.
I’m just wondering, does the zipcode come before or after the address in the address-area?
@Yumii: It comes before. The field after is for your telephone number. Refer to the screen cap I made, you should be able to see the explanation :)
Wow, yay! Thank you very much ponytale :) Now to do some shopping XD XD XD
thank you ponytale! <3
Glad to help! XD
