I visited JAL's Sakura Lounge (international flights) at Narita Airport Terminal 2. There is a lounge after completing immigration procedures, where meals, alcoholic drinks, showers, and other services are provided until departure. This time I will be reviewing this lounge.
Narita Airport "Sakura Lounge"
overview
You can use the Sakura Lounge when flying business class on JAL flights or if you have a certain airline status.
As this is an airline-operated lounge, they offer not only alcohol and other drinks, but also food, and the service is more complete than that of a credit card lounge.

Smartphone reservation
You can order food and make shower reservations using your smartphone within the lounge.
▼Scan the barcode on your boarding pass to use smartphone reservation.
▼This time I tried making a reservation for a shower using the app.
Your boarding pass is scanned before you start using it, so you can easily make a reservation by simply pressing the "Reserve a shower" button. It is convenient because you can check the current number of people waiting on your smartphone.
After a while, the shower room became available.
shower
I confirm on my smartphone that the shower is ready and go to the reception desk. Just show your boarding pass and they will process it for you.
▼Receive a card key with the shower room number written on it at the reception desk.
▼The shower room looks like this. Although it is compact, it also has a clean feel.
▼Dryer
It comes with a rain shower and a nozzle shower, as well as a shower and shower for the body. Just a few minutes of bathing will warm your body.
There are no amenities such as razors or toothbrushes in the shower room, so please ask for them at the reception.
However, there is no lotion or emulsion available, so you will need to bring your own.
