Love Live - Kanda Shrine New Year

Since I were in Tokyo during New Years I decided to go to Kanda Shrine for the hatsumōde first shrine visit of the year which was shown in Love Live.



The line for the shrine started down by the street at the torii gate. The street in front of the gate was closed down for traffic since there were so many people.




They started letting people in just after midnight. There were various food booths lining the hill up to the shrine.




The main gate to the shrine.




Inside the shrine area they had people playing music on this stage.

Just as crowded as in the anime.

Reverse view.




Since there were so many people you couldn't go up to the saisen-bako coin box. Instead you threw coins at the long white temporary structure they had set up which you can see at the bottom of this picture.




While at the shine I also got a o-mikuji fortune...




Which I tied up.




I also tried a shooting gallery and I won these items.




At one of the sales booths they had Love Live and Is the Order a Rabbit? goods.




They also had Is the Order a Rabbit? banners set up at the shrine.




One of Chino as well of course.



No map since this is a famous tourist attraction.

This location was visited on 2018/12/31 and 2019/01/01.
