If you hit Platinum or Diamond status and are a Japan resident you can apply for the Super Flyers Card (credit card with annual membership fee)
Then, you have to spend 3M JPY per year to keep SFC Plus (*A Gold with lounge), otherwise you drop to SFC Lite (*A Silver without lounge)

However, if you have 1M ANA lifetime miles, you are eligible for SFC Plus without a minimum spend on the credit card.
But for those of us living outside of Japan, is there any incentive in going for the 1MM with ANA? I was hoping for something like JAL which would make sense for everyone.
