One of my favorite things about anime is just how dedicated the artists are to recreating real world locations as accurately as possible. And the only thing I like more than anime is hunting down and visiting these locations for myself, so join me on my journey as I travel Japan in search of these iconic places.
I wish someone could do one of of those analysis videos on the symbolism or history behind the themes and images in this opening. I’m just very curious to hear about all of it.
I am reading through the light novels right now and I was doing this exact same thing on Google Maps. I was amazed at the detail in the anime on the locations. I even found the location for the very sad moment in "of a Dreaming Girl" and the café in the background is spot on with the pink signage and white tables outside. Good to see that I am not the only one who thinks like this!
At first I wasnt sure what to expect but some crazy battles. Now that I realized (without knowing that this was based on a novel), that it was all based on the lead ups to the Battle of Sekigahara, I was more than pleased to not just see battles taking places but a lot of mind games.
