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.

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 - Tourist Locations

In Weathering With You a bunch of regular tourist locations are also shown.



Image from Baitoru Commercial - 00m02s


This is at the famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing.

View of Shibuya Scramble Crossing from Mag's Park Crossing View at the roof of the Magnet by Shibuya 109 shopping mall building.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m19s


This bench is located inside Shiba Park. Behind the wall in the background is Shiba Toshogu Shrine.

From Shiba Park you can also get this shot of Tokyo Tower.




Image from Special Trailer - 04m53s


This is at the Sky Deck at Tokyo City View on top of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower.




Image from Trailer 2 - 01m49s


View towards Shinjuku from the Sky Deck.

The last place, which is less of a tourist location, is Koenji Hikawa Shrine where they have these geta sandal shaped ema tablets.




This is the main Koenji Hikawa Shrine building. I've marked the location of this shrine in the map below.

Girls und Panzer - Port

Another location in Ōarai shown in Girls und Panzer is the port.



Image from Episode 7 - 05m29s


They take the bus from Ōarai Station, passing by this street.




Image from Episode 7 - 05m35s


This gate marks the entrance to the Port of Ōarai area. I've marked a path from the street to this gate in the map below.




Image from Der Film - 15m22s


The port area is also shown in Girls und Panzer der Film.




Image from Der Film - 38m17s


The port area gate can be seen in the middle of this image.




Since it was nearby I also visited Ōarai Marine Tower again.




They had this ad for a Girls und Panzer credit card outside.




And they still had cardboard cutouts of the Anglerfish Team inside.




Image from Der Film - 118m59s


I also saw this poster with the Sunflower ferry that was shown in Der Film.




I didn't go to the café this time, but it was still here.




A few goods for sale here as well.
