K-On - Home Improvement Shop

While checking out the Keihan Railway x Sound! Euphonium collaboration, I also stopped by some more K-On locations. The first was the insides of the home improvement shop they visit in episode 2 of the second season. The closest train station is Rokujizō Station.

Inside the shop. The outsides that was shown was another shop located at Kawabata-dori in Kyoto.




Image from S2E2 - 09m01s


Some of the interiors have changed but they sell a lot of the same goods.




Image from S2E2 - 11m45s


Mugi is shown later in the episode to have bought a spoon similar to the ones on the bottom left here.




Image from S2E2 - 09m38s


Lots of nuts and bolts for sale.




Image from S2E2 - 09m39s


Yui is amazed and asks Azusa to have a look.




Image from S2E2 - 09m50s


Yui also checks out a cordless screwdriver here.




Image from S2E2 - 10m05s


Ritsu has put on one of these hard hats.




Image from S2E2 - 10m08s


And blinds Mio with one of these lights.




Image from S2E2 - 10m20s


Yui tries on a coverall.




Image from S2E2 - 10m51s


Dogs and cats for sale in the shop.




Image from S2E2 - 10m53s


Lots of fish too.




Image from S2E2 - 11m27s


I didn't see any turtles for sale though, so no Ton-chan.

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...
