A Silent Voice - Countryside Bridge

During the opening of A Silent Voice we see Ishida and friends near a bridge in the countryside.



The closest train station to the bridge is Mino-Yanagi Station, but I rented a free bicycle instead to get there.

The thing in the background here is a Shinkansen overpass.




Image from A Silent Voice - 02m13s


Not sure if this is the correct road here, but it's a road next to the Shinkansen overpass.




Image from A Silent Voice - 02m18s


You can see the matching roof and stairs here.




Image from A Silent Voice - 02m21s


This bridge is supposedly named Moguri bridge.




Image from A Silent Voice - 02m23s


Ishida and friends looks at the water.

Before they jump in.

Right next to Moguri bridge there's also this other bridge that's shown later in the movie.




Image from A Silent Voice - 80m39s


For some reason Ishida is shown on the other side of the bridge here. I've marked a path from Moguri bridge to this bridge in the map below.

A Silent Voice - Cinema

The cinema that's shown in A Silent Voice is supposedly based on Ogaki Korona Cinema World, so I went and had a look.



Image from A Silent Voice - 37m42s


It doesn't look that much like the one shown in the movie.




Image from A Silent Voice - 38m00s


This seems to be the only cinema in Ōgaki though.




Image from A Silent Voice - 92m39s


Nishimiya and Yuzuru meets up with Ishida outside Ōgaki Station later in the movie to go to the cinema.




Image from A Silent Voice - 92m36s


The station is under renovations so this reverse view doesn't match. I've marked a path from the cinema to the train station in the map below though.




I saw this poster that shows how the station building will look after the renovations.




Image from A Silent Voice - 55m12s


They're changing the insides of the station as well. The area on the right here used to be what's shown in the movie.




Inside the train station I also saw these big posters which was drawn by Yoshitoki Ōima, the creator of the A Silent Voice manga.

A Silent Voice - Roadside

Another A Silent Voice location I checked out was a roadside that was shown several times in the movie.



Image from A Silent Voice - 48m51s


Yuzuru stops by this building in the rain...




Image from A Silent Voice - 48m46s


To take pictures of a dead frog.




Image from A Silent Voice - 48m57s


Ishida shows up with an umbrella.




Image from A Silent Voice - 97m24s


Ishida walks down the other side of the road later on.




Image from A Silent Voice - 107m43s


Ueno walking past the buildings where Yuzuru stopped earlier in the movie. The building on the right looks different in this scene though.




Image from A Silent Voice - 107m50s


Nishimiya has followed Ueno.




Image from A Silent Voice - 107m51s


The rest of the buildings here matches as well.

A Silent Voice - Nishimiya Apartment Location

I also visited the location where Nishimiya's apartment building is shown in A Silent Voice.



Image from A Silent Voice - 69m38s


The apartment building is shown here on the right in the movie.




Image from A Silent Voice - 97m33s


This is actually the location of Ōgaki City Hall in real life and it doesn't really match at all.




Image from A Silent Voice - 51m27s


Next to the city hall there's also this bridge. There's construction going on here in real life.




They're constructing a new city hall building here.




Image from A Silent Voice - 51m37s


The bridge next to the city hall is closed off because of the construction so this is the closest matching shot I could get of this angle.




Image from A Silent Voice - 51m39s


Yuzuru tells Ishida the truth here.




Opposite the river and street from City Hall I noticed this shop.




They were selling masu wooden boxes, including A Silent Voice ones.




Various different A Silent Voice designs. These boxes can be used as sake cups.




Image from A Silent Voice - 86m40s


I also went back to Midori Bridge and on the way I passed by this building with a blue door.




Image from A Silent Voice - 54m05s


Midori Bridge, which I've visited before.




Image from A Silent Voice - 81m57s


I got some more shots here I didn't get before though.




Image from A Silent Voice - 87m33s


I've marked a path from the bridge next to City Hall, going past the box shop and the blue door building, ending up at Midori Bridge here in the map below.
