im there! Using wifi in a small restaurant using the ipod touch browser.pita to type. Town looks cool, beach too. 300 pics and some videos so far. Took 3,5h from kyoto. Still havent found misuzu tho:( she must be hiding somewhere! Its quite deserted here, mostly old ppl and kids who point at us and shout gaikokujin! 0 foreigners here. My friend said we are not sightseeing the town, but rather the town is sightseeing us haha. Everyone stares at us. Bb

Misuzu aitai!

You don't even know how much I envy you. Not only are you in Japan (a dream of mine for a long time) but you're at the town that my favorite anime of all time is based off of. Lucky SOB :D

No pico pico dogs :p we found a high school finally and young ppl! visited a few temples etc, but there was no time to check everything, stayed for 4-5 h or so. there were a couple more beaches and some train bridge from the anime that we couldn(t see. the way back was a fucking pita because we missed the last express, had to switcth 4 lines and it took almost 6h to get back to Kyoto.

Anyway, fav. anime also, I want to go back there again! Will do for sure some other time, it was definitely worth it.

I'll post pics and videos thursday when im back in tokyo.

Yes, there were.. but in order to actually hear it, you had to believe in it really hard ;)

Edit: Back from trip btw (yes, I was the quoted companion one mentioned further up >_<), here 2 photos .. coincidence? You judge!

It saddens me that we didn't get to see some of the most common areas of the anime though.. (or maybe they don't really exist?) The place was definitely there though.



We visited mostly the area in red. Those in the blue circles are probably also locations seen in the anime



the left one is where they have that train crossing over an iron bridge



Overview of the zone



I am going back for sure someday, hopefully maybe I can rent a motorbike and go around, and bring my psp with the gps addon.

Too bad the area isn't in high-res in google earth =(

I loved looking at the pictures ^^ Thank you so much for sharing. I got all the flash backs in my head of the anime and all the places, got a little teared up with the beach pictures and the crow but I'm ok ^^! Thank you!

Hehe, I have been there too. :)

I was there with a friend last summer. Well, I had mixed emotions about it: of course it was cool, being in that town on which the anime and the game are based, but we couldn't find many of the things from the anime/game. Also, the weather was awful back then, it was raining all the time (the rain season started late that year).

Though we did manage to find in Japan the department store from Planetarian and the bench in front of the station from Kanon. XD

Yeah, I do.. :) Well.. Okay.
The photos themselves go in reverse order.
http://foto1.eu/photo/18530 - These are of our trip to Kasumi (Kami). As I said, the weather was really bad back then.. Was raining all the time. And I so hoping to see the sun.
And on this day: http://foto1.eu/photo/18528 - you can find the places from Planetarian and Kanon if you look carefully. XD


Took a look at your photos.. So you managed to find the temple there, 神社?.. So where was it? I'm curious.. And damn am I envious. XD

Cool pics; somehow I can't recognize some of the places though.

I got a map we were given at the police station, ill see if I can find so ill take a pic and mark the temple. It was by the far east area going up through a hill, past an elementary school.

You have to go uphill from here, it's easy to find following the beach road to the east, by the port area

But I guess u made photos of most part of the town. Also any other towns worthy visiting? I don't even know which is real.
