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.

The first location where they get lost.

Utility pole at the same place.

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 - 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.

The Eccentric Family - Hell

While visiting Arima Onsen , Yasaburo gets thrown into hell in The Eccentric Family. Some of the places shown in hell are located in Tokyo, so I went and had a look. Image from S2E6 - 04m51s This is the view from Shohei Bridge towards the west in Kanda-Sudachō near Akihabara. Image from S2E6 - 14m30s Yasaburo is next shown wandering around in Inokashira Park. Image from S2E6 - 14m33s This railway bridge got Keio Inokashira Line trains running on it. Image from S2E6 - 15m08s There's no ramen stand here like in the show. Image from S2E6 - 15m11s This is at the Keio Inokashira-kōen Station platform. There's more modern looking trains running here in real life. Image from S2E6 - 15m15s Closeup of the train doors. I've marked a path from the Shohei Bridge in Kanda-Sudachō to this station in the map below. Image from S2E6 - 15m21s Yasaburo runs towards the station. Image from S2E6 - 15m23s The station building is at the top of the stairs on the left here. Image from S2E6 - 15m28s...

Sakura Miku - Hirosaki Cherry Blossom Festival

While in Hirosaki checking out all the Flying Witch locations, I also got a few pictures of the Sakura Miku and Hirosaki Cherry Blossom Festival collaboration. At Hirosaki Station they had a giant Sakura Miku poster at the location I saw the Flying Witch ad back in 2016. Hirosaki Cherry Blossom Festival poster and Sakura Miku wall scroll inside the tourism information office at the station. Ad with Sakura Miku and Takamaru-kun, the Hirosaki Castle mascot. Lots of Sakura Miku themed tourist maps of Hirosaki. If you wanted a Flying Witch map you had to ask. Sakura Miku decoration on the train station door. At Hirosaki Apple Park they had this cardboard cutout of Sakura Miku and Takamaru-kun. Long wall scroll inside the Apple Park shop. They had lots of Sakura Miku items for sale here. Including t-shirts. Clear files. Mobile batteries. And pin buttons. They also had lots of apple goods for sale. Including various drinks. And actual apples of course. While waking towards Hirosaki Park I...

Comic1 15

The final thing I checked out this time was Comic1 15. It's an event similar to Comiket , and just like Comiket it took place at Tokyo Big Sight. It's a smaller event, so I got a better place in the queue than at Comiket. Still plenty of people though. The Comic1 catalog was also the ticket, so you just held it up at the entrance to show that you had one. Since it was a smaller event it only used the west halls and none of the east halls. Both west hall 1 and 2 had circles selling doujins and goods. This is inside west hall 2. In west hall 4 they had a separate event called Character1 with corporate booths. In the Character1 area they had this big Nekopara TV anime ad. And some smaller ads for various other anime, figures and other stuff. Cardboard cutouts. Metallizing Art on display. At the Key booth they also had art. One of Kanade Tachibana from Angel Beats. They had a stamp rally at the Key booth for people who bought items too. In a corner of Character1 they had itasha o...
