Image from S2E9 - 12m09s


Azusa bikes past these buildings.




Image from S2E9 - 12m10s


The building on the left here matches, but not the right side.




Image from S2E9 - 12m12s


This building is seen on the left of Azusa.




Image from S2E9 - 12m14s


She then stops since she spots...




Image from S2E9 - 12m16s


Yui practicing down by the riverside. I've marked a short path from where Azusa rides her bike to the riverside in the map below.




Image from S2E9 - 13m20s


Azusa decides to joins Yui for the talent show Yui is practicing for.




Image from S2E9 - 13m36s


Azusa tells Yui that they'll practice together the next day.




Image from S2E9 - 13m42s


Before biking off.




Image from S2E9 - 14m43s


The next day they practice together.




Image from S2E9 - 14m51s


And they wonder about what song to play in the talent show.




Image from S2E9 - 15m01s


The water level seemed to be higher when I visited, so I couldn't stand in the exact same spot as Yui and Azusa.




Image from S2E9 - 16m00s


Yui's neighbor who got Yui to participate in the talent show shows up.




Image from S2E9 - 16m08s


And gives Yui homemade beef and potato croquettes.




Image from S2E9 - 16m26s


Yiu and Azusa puts their guitars away.




Image from S2E9 - 16m28s


While they eat the croquettes.




Image from S2E9 - 16m41s


While eating they also try to figure out a name for their duo.




Image from S2E9 - 17m00s


And Yui likes the name Azusa comes up with.




Image from S2E13 - 17m19s


In another episode they go here for a summer festival.




Image from S2E13 - 17m38s


The building next to Mugi across the river matches.




Image from S2E13 - 17m39s


Some of the buildings next to Azusa has changed though.




Image from S2E13 - 18m27s


Everybody sits down in these stairs eating shaved ice.




Image from S2E13 - 18m41s


Ui suggest they try goldfish scooping next.




Image from K-On movie - 103m13s


The riverside is also shown in a quick shot in the movie.

Your Name - Train Crossing

I also checked out a bunch of Your Name locations in Nagano, starting with the train crossing that was supposedly shown in the movie, which is located close to Otabe Station in real life. Image from Your Name - 10m56s This is the angle that seems to match the most compared to what was shown in the movie, but the screenshot is flipped and there's some elements missing. Image from Your Name - 10m56s This is the screenshot as shown in the movie. You can see the similar looking metal utility box in the picture here. Image from Your Name - 31m08s I also took a picture from the opposite side so the metal utility box position matches when the screenshot is flipped. Image from Your Name - 31m08s There's a sign with a 7 on it here, but it's not in the same location as in the movie. Image from Your Name - 31m08s I also took a picture from the road, then the metal utility box position matches, but the road and railway track is switched.

K-On - Kitano Tenmangū Revisit

Another place I revisited was the Kitano Tenmangū shrine . The easiest way to get there is to take a bus to Kitano Tenmangū-mae. Image from S2E4 - 06m54s The torii gate at the entrance. Image from S2E4 - 06m55s The same cow statue I saw last time I visited. Image from S2E4 - 06m57s And the tower gate. Image from S2E4 - 07m05s The purification font is in the middle here. Image from S2E4 - 07m06s The sign here is smaller in real life. Image from S2E4 - 07m20s The other cow statue that's shown in the anime... Image from S2E4 - 07m26s That Ritsu and Yui rubs. Image from S2E4 - 07m32s Nodoka is skeptical about what they're doing. Image from S2E4 - 07m36s Sawako spots Ritsu and Yui... Image from S2E4 - 07m37s And yells at them. Image from S2E4 - 07m40s Yui then spots... Image from S2E4 - 07m42s Another sign. Not sure if this is the exact same location as shown in the anime, but it was the closest matching one I could see. Image from S2E4 - 08m29s The main shrine building. Image from ...

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...
