Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha - Okusha Hohaisho

At Fushimi Inari Shrine, just beyond the famous Senbon Torii, is the Okusha Hohaisho prayer building which is shown a lot in Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.

Inari is running through the Senbon Torii in the OP here.




Image from Episode 1 - 01m08s


Towards Uka that's standing in front of the Okusha Hohaisho prayer building.




Image from Episode 1 - 01m10s


Inari exiting the Senbon Torii.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m14s


The Okusha Hohaisho is on the right. They had a canopy tent set up here so it was difficult to get matching shots of the Okusha Hohaisho itself.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m15s


This is where Inari calls on the gods.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m22s


And out of the fox statues.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m23s


The spirits appear.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m26s


They jump down between the torii gates here.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m30s


And lead Inari.




Image from Episode 1 - 09m36s


Down the path. If you continue down the path here in real life you get to the Neagari no Matsu.

Later in the same episode there's this panning shot of the purification font near the Okusha Hohaisho.




Image from Episode 4 - 03m33s


In a later episode Uka sits next to the purification font.




Image from Episode 4 - 03m37s


And Inari comes running up the stairs opposite the font.




Image from Episode 4 - 05m38s


This is on the side of the Okusha Hohaisho. There were temporary roofs set up here.




Image from Episode 4 - 05m42s


Lots of fox shaped ema tablets on which you can draw the face.




Image from Episode 4 - 14m45s


This is at the back of the Okusha Hohaisho.




Image from Episode 4 - 14m54s


Uka walks around the corner.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m07s


Past the ema tablets again.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m08s


And she spots Inari and Tanbabashi.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m13s


No festival decorations when I visited.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m19s


Touka is following and keeping an eye on Inari.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m35s


Inari notices somebody screaming.




Image from Episode 4 - 15m47s


It's Uka which has been embraced by Toshi.




Image from Episode 4 - 19m39s


Image from Episode 4 - 19m42s


Uka ties Toshi up.




Image from Episode 4 - 19m47s


Touka isn't sure about the whole thing.




Image from Episode 9 - 18m03s


A shot of the Okusha Hohaisho from within the Senbon Torii.




Image from Episode 9 - 20m04s


Inari and Touka is joined by Miya.




Image from OVA - 01m51s


This is back at the entrance to the Senbon Torii as shown in the OVA.




Image from OVA - 20m48s


Toshi has been tied up again in the OVA too.

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.

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...
