The Eccentric Family - Arima Onsen

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



Image from S2E6 - 04m51s


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.




Image from S2E6 - 04m56s


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.




Image from S2E6 - 08m56s


Though the café windows Yasaburo spots...




Image from S2E6 - 08m55s


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.




Image from S2E6 - 09m03s


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.




Image from S2E6 - 09m36s


Benten buys ice cream from the ice cream shop.




Image from S2E6 - 09m45s


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.

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 ...

Haruhi Suzumiya - Ferry

In addition to checking out the port area of Tokushima I also took the Nankai ferry since it was shown in Haruhi Suzumiya. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 00m48s The ferry runs between Tokushima and Wakayama. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 04m13s Unfortunately the ferry that was shown in the anime was retired in 2007, so the one I took didn't match. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 04m33s There were some similarities though like these green sailcloth covered walkways. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 04m39s The seating areas outside were different. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 05m12s These rows of plastic chairs didn't match either. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 06m15s The insides were slightly more similar. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 06m18s Sitting area with vending machines. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 06m22s Area where you could lie down. Image from Remote Island Syndrome Pa...
