K-On - Rock'n Plaza

The next place I visited was Rock'n Plaza at the Shinkyogoku shopping street that was shown in episode 13 of the second season of K-On.

The scene starts out at the nearby cinema, which I visited before.




Image from S2E13 - 09m18s


Not the same horror movie, but they had a poster for It Chapter Two outside this time.




Image from S2E13 - 09m21s


Azusa suggest that they watch another movie.




Image from S2E13 - 09m22s


They also had a poster for Violet Evergarden I: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll here.




When I passed by the cinema again the next month they had lots of other Kyoto Animation movie posters here as well, like these Free! ones, so I took some more shots.




Beyond the Boundary.




Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions.




And a signed Liz and the Blue Bird poster.

Ui takes a closer look of the poster.




Image from S2E13 - 09m47s


Since they have some time before the movie start they go to this nearby convenience store.




Image from S2E13 - 09m49s


This used to be an ampm convenience store, but is now a Lawson.




Image from S2E13 - 10m04s


While in the store they spot a poster for work as lottery assistants.




Image from S2E13 - 10m09s


And they decide to take the job.




Image from S2E13 - 10m11s


This is at the Rock'n Plaza. I've marked a path from this small park to the convenience store in the map below.




Image from S2E13 - 10m33s


Mugi shows up.




Image from S2E13 - 10m36s


With lottery tickets. The building in the background here has changed.




Image from S2E13 - 10m53s


And she wins a pack of pocket tissues.




Image from S2E13 - 11m15s


Azusa somehow wins the 1st prize.




Image from S2E13 - 11m29s


So she asks Mugi...




Image from S2E13 - 11m31s


And Ui to pinch her cheeks to check if she's dreaming.




Image from S2E13 - 11m43s


And it's revealed that she actually is.

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. Location map: This location was visited on 2019/04/23. Special thanks to the ones who went here before: http://blog.livedoor.jp/seichijunrei/archives/51971829.html
