Here is your answer. Time in Japan is confusing so they make it 25:00 hours for 01:00am. They don't want to confuse anyone to think it is 01:00pm. I asked this question to many Japanese people and that's the answer I got. I have yet to see this where I'm living but now that I saw it here I will need to look. Great videos by the way.

Why not just use the standard 24 hours times? Like 9:00-1:00 (open for 16 hours).

Well I guess the dark hour is well known in Japan. That takes some dedication to stay at your job with shadows running amok.

This way of writing system is also seen Japanese TV guide.

They often write something like this," This Friday night 25:00 AAA station broadcast much-waited movie ZZZ." But in fact, the movie starts 01:00 Saturday.

But by this, people wait the movie Friday night, so there is less chance of missing the movie.

I am Japanese and think this writing system gives us a kind of feeling that its still today.

For example, store clerk might say "Today we will be open until 25:00."
