## Why Japan Market Data?

Japan is the world's third-largest economy and home to unique markets that English-language tools ignore:

- **Mercari Japan** — 231K monthly active users, 5M+ daily listings
- **Yahoo! Auctions Japan** — 15M+ items, the largest auction platform in Japan
- **Rakuten Ichiba** — Japan's Amazon equivalent, ¥2T+ annual GMV
- **DLsite** — 1M+ doujin/indie titles, the world's largest Japanese indie content marketplace
- **Mandarake** — 130+ physical stores, global anime collectibles leader
- **MLIT** — Official government real estate transaction data (the only MLS-style source in Japan)

Most AI agents have **zero access** to these data sources. This project closes that gap.

## Quick Start

```bash
# Install MCP server for AI agent use
npm install -g @atushi1841/japan-market-mcp

# Or use Apify directly (no install)

```
