Suzume no Tojimari - Shin-Kobe Station

The last Suzume no Tojimari location I visited this time was Shin-Kobe Station.



Image from Trailer 1 - 01m05s


This is just outside the station building.




Image from Trailer 1 - 01m09s


Where Suzume is given a hug.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m54s


It shows the real name of the station in this shot.



No location map since it's just Shin-Kobe Station.

Suzume no Tojimari - Ochanomizu Station

In the trailers for Suzume no Tojimari areas around JR Ochanomizu Station is also shown.



Image from Trailer 2 - 00m37s


The bridge in this shot is the Hijiri-bashi bridge. Ochanomizu Station is located to the left in the anime screenshot, but I had to take the picture from the other side, so it's on the right in my photo. You can still see the matching bridge details though.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m11s


Image from Trailer 2 - 01m12s


Suzume is shown on the Hijiri-bashi bridge here.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m13s


On the bridge ledge. The station renovations here has progressed even further, so most of the river can't be seen any more from this angle.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m14s


Jumping off. Another shot that's difficult to match because of the ongoing renovations.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m15s


I took this picture at the platform of JR Ochanomizu Station.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m26s


Suzume seems to lose her shoe into the station area here.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m40s


This is the other bridge near JR Ochanomizu Station, called Ochanomizu bridge. The railing has been removed here during renovations, but you can see the matching buildings in the background on the right. The white building is JR Ochanomizu Station.




There's still some of the original railings which matches what is show in the anime closer to the station entrance. I've marked a path from Hijiri-bashi bridge to Ochanomizu bridge in the map below.

Suzume no Tojimari - Shinjuku

In the second trailer for the movie Suzume no Tojimari there's a quick shot of some of the skyscrapers in Shinjuku, so I went and took a picture.



Image from Trailer 2 - 01m19s


The building in the middle here is the Sompo Japan Building, which is also shown in Your Name. I've marked this building in the map below.

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.




Image from Your Name - 20m14s


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.




Image from Your Name - 98m25s


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.

Weathering With You - Ikebukuro

The last Weathering With You locations I visited this time was two located in Ikebukuro.



Image from US Dubbed Trailer - 00m46s


Hina is in front of a KFC at the first location here.




Image from Post-Release Trailer - 00m11s


She seems to try to protect Hodaka. I'm not sure if this is in the same place since I've not seen the movie yet.




Image from US Subtitled Trailer - 01m53s


Lightning starts to appear.




Image from US Dubbed Trailer - 00m44s


Image from US Dubbed Trailer - 00m45s


Hina runs off. The bottom two signs on the right has changed since the movie was made.




Phone Wallpaper 10


This is the second location, but it's difficult to get a matching shot. The big tower like structure here is the smokestack of Toshima Incineration Plant. I've marked a path between the two locations in the map below.
