J Storm, Inc. (株式会社ジェイ・ストーム, Kabushikigaisha Jei Sutom?) is a Japanese music and film company owned by Johnny & Associates. It was established on November 12, 2001, initially as a label for the Johnny's group, Arashi, after which it was named (Arashi, or 嵐 in Japanese text translates to "Storm").

Aside from producing and releasing CDs and DVDs, the company also produces films for Johnny's various talents. J Storm also has the same strict policies for portrait rights of its talents with its parent company. Among others, images of their talents are prohibited to appear in websites, though recently, on 28 February 2011, the ban was lifted and loosened the regulations (it is still prohibited in news sites).

The company's releases are currently being distributed by Avex Asia in Hong Kong and Taiwan, Sony Music in Japan, SM Entertainment in South Korea, GMM Grammy in Thailand, and recently, Universal Records in the Philippines.
