How to spend an evening living alone

I moved to Hawaii from New York a few months ago, and I often go out during the day, but I have free time at night when I live alone.
Is there any place where I can watch Japanese-language TV, etc., like a hotel lobby or a public facility?

Or, are there any DVD rental stores that sell Japanese-language TV dramas? I really want to watch the upcoming NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen and Taiga Drama, so please let me know if there is somewhere I can watch TV Japan.
I will eventually try to have online Japanese TV available at my residence, but I am not able to go that far at this time,
Thank you very much.

Excuse me for entering sideways.
I live in the same area as Koji.
Smart TV.

You can watch
KIKU without paying Spectrum for TV ? !
I only pay Spectrum for modem and wifi every month.

Is the indoor antenna ok for a condo ?

I would be very happy if you could tell me what brand and where you bought it.
Please let me know.

I enjoy Japanese movies and dramas on Amazon Prime.
There is not a wide variety, but there are Amazon originals
so it is fresh. I also enjoy original American movies.
I get an extra 10% off sale items at Whole Foods, and
Prime offers free shipping for online shopping, so
I pay my annual membership fee once a year.
It is more economical than paying monthly membership fees.
I hope this helps.

Maki, miki,

KIKU's transmitting base station is on the west side of the island, on top of the mountain in Kapolei.
So near the town, the receiving antenna is basically facing west.

My antenna is about 10 years old and made by Amazon.
The point is that it is a USB powered type to enhance the signal.
This increases the possibility of picking up a weak signal.

I live on the third floor of an apartment building with a window facing west and no tall buildings in the direction of the antenna.


One idea is to try various indoor spots with a low-cost indoor antenna ( $ 20 ) like the above.

Thank you. Amazon Prime looks good too. Even if there is an annual fee, it won't be a loss if I can enjoy a lot.

My indoor antenna is not designed to be turned on, so I thought it was weak to get signals from outside, but
I just changed the position of the antenna to right next to the window and scanned the channels again, and now I have more channels and can watch NHK news NHK news is available.
A little progress and a little hope. Thank you very much.

Koji

Thank you very much for the guidance !

It would be a great deal if I could watch Amazon's $20 antenna all the time.

I regret the past of paying monthly for Spectrum.
