It’s my sixth day in Tokyo. I spent the whole of last night standing in the rain at near-zero temperature for about 9 hours. Comiket is insanity. But I’ll talk about that in its own post. Yesterday, I took a trip down to the centre of Tokyo Prefecture, in Kokubunji<\/a>, a boring place that no sane tourist would visit.<\/p>\n
I went there in search of two of the train stations featured in the popular bishoujo game and anime series, School Days<\/strong><\/a>. It’s 2D meets 3D!<\/p>\n
The fictional Haramihama Station was actually designed based on the JR Nishi-Kokubunji Station (JR\u00e8\u00a5\u00bf\u00e5\u203a\u00bd\u00e5\u02c6\u2020\u00e5\u00af\u00ba\u00e9\u00a7\u2026) on the Chuuou Line (\u00e4\u00b8\u00ad\u00e5\u00a4\u00ae\u00e7\u00b7\u0161). You can take the line from Shinjuku Station. It’s the same train as the one you would take to go to Nakano<\/a>. Just make sure you take Rapid and not Local.<\/p>\n
Thanks to lolipuni<\/a> for identifying the stations. You can also take a look at additional photos I took around the two stations in my gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n
I’ll make an overall post on Comiket after all three days are over. Looking forward to visiting Shingo’s<\/a> booth on Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
