The Eccentric Family - Arima Onsen

In the second season of The Eccentric Family we see Yasaburo visiting Arima Onsen.

This road is located between Arima Onsen Station and the main parts of the town. The red bridge in the background is called Nene-bashi.

Yasaburo is looking at...




Image from S2E6 - 04m58s


Kin no Yu.




Image from S2E6 - 05m02s


Kin no Yu is one of the public onsen bath houses in Arima. The insides match what's shown in the anime as well, but no pictures allowed there.




Image from S2E6 - 06m29s


After going to Kin no Yu, Yasaburo goes to the café on the second floor here. In the background on the top right you can see the roof of Zenpuku-ji Temple.




Unfortunately the café was closed when I visited, so I couldn't get pictures inside.

Though the café windows Yasaburo spots...

Benten and other Friday Fellows.




Image from S2E6 - 08m57s


Benten and the others is at the souvenir shop on the right. On the left is the bus terminal where you'll arrive if you take a bus instead of the train to get here.

Yasaburo hiding behind this mailbox. The stairs up to Zenpuku-ji Temple is in the background.

Closeup of the road between the bus terminal and souvenir shop. This road leads up to Kin no Yu in real life.




Image from S2E6 - 09m24s


Yasaburo follows Benten and the others to this ice cream shop.




Image from S2E6 - 09m26s


Reverse view. If you look closely at the picture here you can spot a cardboard cutout inside the shop on the left.




It was cardboard cutouts of Rinka and Fuuka Arima, characters from Onsen Musume.




On the table there were Onsen Musume beef curry rice for sale.

Benten buys ice cream from the ice cream shop.

Before everybody heads to their hotel.




Image from S2E6 - 09m51s


Yasaburo still tailing them. This corner of the wall is slightly different than what's shown in the anime.




Image from S2E6 - 09m54s


The stairs here are a bit further away from the corner of the wall in real life.




Image from S2E6 - 09m55s


Yasaburo hiding behind the wall.




Image from S2E6 - 10m05s


Before running over to the hotel.




Image from S2E6 - 10m08s


This place is called Point Vacation Arima in real life. I've marked a path from the ice cream shop to this place in the map below.




At the local tourist information office I saw more Onsen Musume items.




Another cardboard cutout of Fuuka Arima.




And a signed Onsen Musume poster.




I also saw this Naruto and Boruto decorated bus here.

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...
