Proxy Connection and Troubleshooting

Ordinarily, one must live in Japan in order to play Touken Ranbu. However, it is still possible to play the game by either using a proxy connection or faking the region flag. The browser cookie method below does the latter, allowing you to play the game.

Note: If you have previously installed plug-ins to bypass the region lock (such as KC3) for other netgames on DMM (e.g. Kancolle) there is no need to overwrite said plug-in with this cookie.

'''Please refrain from playing the game on a tablet or mobile device, unless it is a tablet PC. It causes unnecessary load on the game servers and will get you banned.'''

Usage

 * 1) Log into DMM.com
 * 2) Switch the language of the site from English to Japanese (日本語) at the top of the site. (This is essential for it to work.)
 * 3) Open the Developer Bar (F12), put these lines into the Console, press Enter/Return, close the Console, and refresh the page.

document.cookie = "ckcy=1;expires=Sun, 09 Feb 2050 09:00:09 GMT;domain=osapi.dmm.com;path=/"; document.cookie = "ckcy=1;expires=Sun, 09 Feb 2050 09:00:09 GMT;domain=203.104.209.7;path=/"; document.cookie = "ckcy=1;expires=Sun, 09 Feb 2050 09:00:09 GMT;domain=www.dmm.com;path=/netgame/"; document.cookie = "ckcy=1;expires=Sun, 09 Feb 2050 09:00:09 GMT;domain=log-netgame.dmm.com;path=/";

Note: If your console returns the line "ckcy=1;expires=Sun, 09 Feb 2019 09:00:09 GMT;domain=log-netgame.dmm.com;path=/", that is normal behavior and the method should still work.

Alternate Way to Access the Console
If you are unable to find the Console in the Developer Bar, the following shortcuts can be used to access it instead:
 * Chrome: Ctrl-Shift-J (Windows), Cmd-Opt-J (Mac)
 * Firefox: Ctrl-Shift-K (Windows), Cmd-Opt-J (Mac)
 * Safari: Cmd-Opt-C (Mac)
 * Opera: Ctrl-Shift-I, Select 'Console' (Windows)

Advantages

 * Works for any OS or browser
 * You do not need to download or install any third-party software
 * You will have access until you specifically clear your browser cookies
 * It is fast since you'll be using your direct internet connection

How it works
(From the Kantai Collection Wiki)
 * With this, you are using the browser's developer tools console to write cookies on your computer. Nothing has been transmitted to the server at this point.
 * Once you have refresh DMM, it will now check for the cookies. Your browser now includes these cookies as part of the HTTP header on your refresh.
 * DMM will now see the new region flag on the cookies, (which they do not know you faked since it was given by your browser) and grant you access.
 * Choose your netgame and have fun playing the game.

Troubleshooting
For a workaround following the 8/4 maintenance, please watch this video: EditThisCookie can be downloaded here If the above method does not work for you and you cannot access the game, ensure the following:
 * You aren't using private browsing / incognito window
 * Adobe Flash Player is enabled
 * Your browser doesn't routinely clear cookies
 * Your internet connection is working
 * Your internet connection is not blocking DMM's API
 * Your browser does not have Parental Controls on

If you made sure these are correct and the above method still doesn't work, try some of the following:


 * Refresh the page after entering the lines into the console and hitting return
 * Clear cache/cookies and enter the lines into the console again
 * Reinstall/update Adobe Flash Player
 * Set an exception for DMM.com in your firewall
 * Reset your internet connection
 * Turn your computer off and on again

Other
If you have already been playing for a while and the game prompts you to choose a new server, do NOT choose a new server. Simply log out and log back in so that you do not get the message again. Choosing a new server may reset all of your progress in game.

If you have already chosen a new server:
 * Attempt to reset the page and go to the direct link
 * Try to log out and back in
 * Reset your computer
 * If the above does not work, your progress may have been deleted permanently.
