Nissin Power Station
Nissin Power Station (日清パワーステーション), currently known as Nissin Power Station [Reboot] (日清食品 Power Station [Reboot]) is a distribution-only live house and former music venue in Shinjuku, Tokyo owned by Nissin Foods. The original venue was active from March 11, 1988 to June 30, 1998 before closing due to the company's mismanagement. The venue was closed until November 2020, when Nissin Foods announced that it would be reopening the venue for performances but without audiences. Original venue (1988–1998) 

The original Nissin Power Station was opened on March 11, 1988, when emerging live houses like Differ Ariake were opening in various parts of Tokyo during the second band boom at the height of the Japanese asset price bubble. With the catchphrase "Rockin' Restaurant," the venue gained popularity as a "fashionable live house where you can eat." Several cameras were installed and the stage was projected on the monitors during live performances. A radio program called "Nissin Power Station" was broadcast on Tokyo FM as well, with the audience being invited to the live performances of famous artists for free via a lottery through the broadcast. Various band artists appeared throughout its lifespan, but due to the deterioration of the management of Nissin Foods at that time, the deficit division was completely closed, and with it the venue along with the restaurants on the first and second floors on June 30, 1998. After its closure, it was converted into an event hall at the head office, and the interior remains as it was at that time except the stage that was removed. In addition to being used for seminars, it is also used for game viewing and in-house support for players with official sponsors. Reopening as "Reboot" (2020–present) 
The venue reopened on November 21, 2020 as Japan's first distribution-only live house with the concept of music specialization, and distribution with no live audience, the first of its kind in Japan. The underground hall of Nissin Foods Tokyo Headquarters where the original venue was located was renovated for the first time in 22 years. The venue is distributed via livestreams due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. The venue opened with an event called Kokeraotoshi 3Days (こけら落とし3DAYS), which included performances from singers and Vtubers. Audiences can chat during the livestreams and donate for "Ultra Cheers," which livens up the performance. Using the original platform for viewing the livestreams, the transparent LED back panel and LED floor panel installed on the stage are linked with the chat. Notable appearances
