Your Name - Tokyo Revisit

During the last couple of trips to Japan I also took some more Your Name pictures.

Image from Your Name - 39m11s

This is at Tokyo City View in Roppongi Hills Mori Tower. I only got a picture of the outsides last time I visited.

Image from Your Name - 39m14s

I took this picture at the opposite side of the building since there were less people here. I got these pictures at the same time I got Weathering With You ones.

Image from Your Name - 95m24s

I got a better matching picture at the Yunika Vision screens in Shinjuku.

And a closeup.

Image from Your Name - 76m05s

This is a shot of Yotsuya Station. It's been flipped in the movie.

Image from Your Name - 76m05s

This is how it looks in real life.

Image from Your Name - 38m13s

I also got a better matching shot of the station from afar. There's a new skyscraper on the right here now though.

Image from Your Name - 75m24s

While passing through Yotsuya Station I got this picture of the stop display. It's slightly different on the newer JR trains.

Image from Your Name - 75m25s

For some reason the shot in the movie shows it's car 4 in the upper right corner of the display while the train car marked with red is car 5, so I got a picture here in car 5 as well.

One place I hadn't been before is Akebonobashi-dōri shopping street which this shot in the movie is supposedly based on. It doesn't match that much except for one of the signs on the left though. I've marked the location of this place in the map below.

These buildings that can be seen in the background at the end of the street do match, but they're further away from the shopping street in real life. These buildings are also shown in the Weathering With You Toei Bus commercial.

These locations were visited on 2019/04/12, 2019/04/23, 2019/12/29, 2020/01/17 and 2020/01/18.

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. Location map: This location was visited on 2019/...

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
