Love Live Series 9th Anniversary Love Live Fest

During my latest trip to Japan I also attended the first day of the Love Live Series 9th Anniversary Love Live Fest concert.

In Akihabara Station they had this giant ad for the event.

The ad featured Aqours from Love Live Sunshine.

μ's from Love Live.

And the members of Love Live Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.

While traveling around I also saw ads for the Love Live! School Idol Festival All Stars game in various locations.

One with Honoka.

And another with Yoshiko.

I also saw Love Live! School Idol Festival All Stars decorated JR Yamanote Line trains.

Kasumi and Kotori.

Kanan and Shizuku.

Karin and one with Honoka, Chika and Ayumu.

Mari and Hanayo.

Setsuna and Hanamaru.

I got some closeups as well.

Starting with Honoka from μ's.

Rin.

Maki.

Eli.

And Nico.

From Aqours I got pictures of Chika.

You.

Riko.

Ruby.

And Yoshiko.

And finally from Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, Emma.

And Rina.

The concert itself took place on January 18th and 19th at Saitama Super Arena.

I only attended the first day though.

I entered the arena at entrance B here.

No pictures allowed inside during the concert, so this one is from the official Love Live twitter. I was sitting towards the left upper side in the 2F 200 level. My first time at a Japanese live concert and I saw performances by μ's, Aqours, Saint Snow and Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.

After the concert I got pictures of some flower stands on my way out.

Outside it had become dark and decorative lights were turned on.

Here's a picture of the set of clear files included with the overseas travel package to see the concert. In the picture is also an advertisement booklet I picked up, a guide on how to read the concert ticket and a hotel information flyer.

No location map since it's no longer there.

These location were visited on 2019/12/29, 2020/01/01, 2020/01/17 and 2020/01/18.

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.

Flying Witch - Pond

Another location shown in the first episode of Flying Witch is a small pond located at Tokiwano-noson Park. Image from Episode 1 - 17m01s It was cloudy when I visited so Mount Iwaki wasn't visible. Image from Episode 2 - 14m19s Around the pond I also saw what seemed to be bakke butterbur sprouts which was featured in the second episode of the show, although in a different location .

Clannad After Story - New Hospital

I also visited the new hospital shown in the later episodes of Clannad After Story, not to be confused with the hospital Nagisa goes to when she's pregnant. Image from Episode 20 - 20m43s Image from Episode 21 - 08m55s The hospital is close to Kemigawahama Station in real life. You could walk here, but it's easier to take a bus. Image from Episode 21 - 10m03s It's called Chiba Kaihin Municipal Hospital, and not Hikarizaka General Hospital like in the anime. Image from Episode 21 - 10m06s I only saw one bench here and it didn't have a roof over it. Image from Episode 21 - 11m38s View towards the main entrance. Image from Episode 22 - 18m54s View of the hospital from the other side of the road. There's no park area here in real life. Image from Episode 21 - 10m49s There's no park area to the left of the hospital either, just more parking spots. Image from Episode 22 - 18m57s Fuko and Kouko outside the hospital. Image from Episode 22 - 19m13s Reverse view. Image f...
