Daily Portal Z (デイリーポータルZ)

Daily Portal Z is a free Japanese entertainment website about surprising and amusing details of everyday life. Its official description says writers cover little-known places and foods, projects they make themselves, and other subjects that catch their interest; articles often test alternative ways of looking at things commonly taken for granted. The site also announces events and projects such as Hebocon, a handmade-robot contest. It says the publication is supported by sponsored articles and a reader membership program. General articles are free to read. The basic supporter membership costs ¥1,100 per month and includes members-only articles and videos, an ad-free option, saved favorites, a member community, newsletters, and event benefits.
