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.

Flying Witch - Manga Covers

Although I don't normally do manga locations, I did check out some of the locations shown on the Flying Witch covers this time. Flying Witch Cover 1 This is at a shrine named Gankisan Shrine. I've marked this location in the map below. Flying Witch Cover 2 This is at Hirosaki Park on the other side of the moat from the bench shown in the anime. Flying Witch Cover 5 This is at the entrance of the house where Nao lives . Flying Witch Cover 6 And finally, this is down by the river near the nursery school close to the bridge shown in the anime OP. Location map: These locations were visited on 2019/04/24 and 2019/04/25.

Girls und Panzer - Tank Club Shop

The Tank Club Shop in episode 2 of Girls und Panzer is based on a real place in Tokyo, so I went to have a look. The closest train station is Ichigaya Station. Image from Episode 2 - 09m12s The building still looks the same. Image from Episode 2 - 09m10s Unfortunately the shop itself, which was called Norimono Club in real life, closed down in 2017. It was run by the publisher Ikaros Publications which still is located here. Image from Episode 2 - 09m18s There's no buildings on the other side of the street in real life.
