This do not surprise me, you have to ask permission for special events in the streets, even to film 30 secs for a movie, you have to ask to each store the permission, and more ... I know it since from the backstage of a french movie filmed in Japan. When they didn't get the permission, they filmed the movie parts in the streets anyway, the quicker way possible, with two guys checking for police or such .... they had more than once to run away quickly not to be caught.
You can't disturb the peace of the streets like that in their opinion and have to ask permission. As ridiculous it may sound to us.
