K-On - Arashiyama Walk

In episode 4 of the second season of K-On, everybody gets lost in Arashiyama while trying to get back to their hotel, so I checked out the locations. There's several train stations in the area including the JR Saga-Arashiyama Station, Keifuku Arashiyama Station and Hankyu Arashiyama Station.

This is on the north side of the Togetsukyo Bridge. You can see the bridge on the right here.

Image from S2E4 - 16m40s

The first location where they get lost.

Image from S2E4 - 16m41s

Utility pole at the same place.

Image from S2E4 - 16m42s

Closeup of the house they're in front of.

Image from S2E4 - 16m52s

Yui plays with the dog here.

Image from S2E4 - 16m55s

While everybody else stares at her.

Image from S2E4 - 17m00s

The next location they're in.

Image from S2E4 - 17m01s

Where Ritsu asks an old lady for help finding the way.

Image from S2E4 - 17m15s

Only the buildings on the right here seems to match.

Image from S2E4 - 17m19s

Ritsu has gotten directions.

Image from S2E4 - 17m25s

And they start moving on.

Image from S2E4 - 17m28s

But they manage to get lost again.

Image from S2E4 - 17m27s

Closeup of another utility pole.

Image from S2E4 - 17m31s

Everybody wonders about what they should do next.

Image from S2E4 - 17m52s

Soon after somebody else walks by.

Image from S2E4 - 17m53s

It's Nodoka and her group.

Image from S2E4 - 17m56s

Nodoka calls out.

Image from S2E4 - 17m59s

Ritsu thinks they're saved.

Image from S2E4 - 18m01s

But Nodoka's group is also lost.

Image from S2E4 - 18m03s

The shot here doesn't match for some reason.

Image from S2E4 - 18m04s

Even though the rest does.

Image from S2E4 - 18m14s

Next they're near this small bridge.

Image from S2E4 - 18m17s

Then at this spot where there's an elevated road in the background.

Image from S2E4 - 18m27s

The final location is another utility pole. I've marked a path going through all the locations and ending up here in the map below.

While walking around I also saw this Puella Magi Madoka Magica cardboard cutout.

And this Keifuku Randen x Kaohsiung MRT collaboration stamp rally stand.

Weathering With You - Tabata

Another place shown in Weathering With You is a hill leading up from the south exit of Tabata Station. Image from Trailer 2 - 00m48s Hodaka is walking up the hill. It was difficult to get everything seen in the background in the same picture. Image from Toei Bus Commercial - 00m19s I got another shot from a road running alongside the hill, but then the trees here blocked some of the view. Image from US Dubbed Trailer - 01m39s Hodaka looking up the hill. Image from US Dubbed Trailer - 01m40s Reverse view. Image from 15 Second Trailer 1 - 00m05s Both Hodaka and Hina at the hill. Image from US Subtitled Trailer - 02m07s Something zooms up the hill here. Image from Trailer 2 - 01m43s Gets closer to Hodaka and Hina. Image from Trailer 2 - 01m44s And seems to hit Hina. Image from Trailer 2 - 01m44s Somebody had left a yellow umbrella here, but it didn't match the one in the movie. Location map: This location was visited on 2019/12/29 and 2020/01/18.

Your Name - Shinkaisansya Shrine

The kagura-den stage shown in Your Name is supposedly based on one located at Shinkaisansya Shrine in real life. The closest train station is Usuda Station, but it's quite far and there's no rental bicycle places nearby, so it might be better to rent a car to get here. Image from Your Name - 14m31s Full view of the stage. Image from Your Name - 14m37s Side of the building. Image from Your Name - 14m48s In real life the back of the stage is seen from this angle instead of the front. Image from Your Name - 15m00s Since the position of the stage isn't the same it's difficult to match this shot. Image from Your Name - 15m03s The insides of the roof is different here. Image from Your Name - 15m10s Back of the stage. Image from Your Name - 15m16s There's another building right in front of the stage in real life. Image from Your Name - 15m22s Yotsuha and Mitsuha preparing to make kuchikamizake. Image from Your Name - 15m32s Tessie and Sayaka watches. Image from Your Name -...

KyoAni & Do Shop Revisit

Since I was in the area I also checked out the KyoAni & Do Shop again. The building is still the same. But with new banners. This one is for the KyoAni movie year with Sound! Euphonium: Our Promise: A Brand New Day, Free! -Road to the World- Dream and Violet Evergarden the Movie. And another banner for the KyoAni Do Fan Days 2019. Just Tsurune goods on display this time. A different Sound! Euphonium: Our Promise: A Brand New Day poster on display. Info about the opening hours. KyoAni movie year standee and Sound! Euphonium: Our Promise: A Brand New Day poster inside as well. The standee had creator messages on it. Warning: This is an extra large picture to show more details. They still had the same Violet Evergarden items on display. I took some closeup pictures of the Violet Evergarden items this time. Here's one of the shikishi sign board signed by Yui Ishikawa. And they still had the Free! items on display as well. I also got another picture of the main Kyoto Animation off...
