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 Part 1 - 05m28s


They play cards in the area where you can lie down in the shown.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 06m44s


There's just open shelves here without any door.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 07m05s


The cushions behind Haruhi here are the same though.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 07m37s


Kyon buys drinks from one of the vending machines.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 1 - 07m43s


They only had apple juice boxes and not cans for sale.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 2 - 20m26s


The outsides of the ferry is also shown in Remote Island Syndrome Part 2.

Side of the ferry.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 2 - 20m37s


Haruhi and the others sitting outside in this episode.




Image from Remote Island Syndrome Part 2 - 22m02s


Mooring winches.




They also had ferry mascot character decorations, just like I saw at the ferry terminal and on the side of the ship.




Inside too.



No location map since it's just a ferry running between Tokushima and Wakayama.

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.
