My Hokkaido
Book review:
Tumblr media
Likened to a volcanic exclamation mark on the Japanese archipelago, Hokkaido is filled with wonderous sights and experiences found nowhere else but still unmistakably Japanese. This is a travel guide to the most different of Japan's four main islands. It's the product of an adoring writer photographer who is still thoroughly enchanted with the land that he has already spent 10 years exploring.
Be mesmerised by sights so beautiful they look pulled from a fantasy game at maximum effects. Striated fields of flowers like a rainbow carpeting the ground or frozen lakes that glow a mystical blue are just some scenes that could be mistaken for idealised paintings or imaginary posters.
Manmade wonders include Tadao Ando's Hill of the Buddha where once was a solitary giant statue, there now is a serene halo-like, open dome, planted with concentric rings of lavender bushes. Seasonally attuned events and cultural celebrations abound such as the hell festival or the fire festival in summer and illuminated ice sculptures or snow light candles in winter. Famous food specialities are highlighted, locally produced delicacies, snow sports, farming, breathtaking terrain, this guide covers all interests. Notable too is that Sapporo Classic, the favourite brew of the island, is exclusively non-exported.
The editing and structure are refreshing. It's a travel guide but doesn't slavishly follow a template. Each section will have a mini map but beyond that, the information is freewheeling. There are some recuring elements like call out panels to focus on some special cuisine or wildlife or festivals or sporting activity. Enough for consistency and structure but varied enough to feel like it is not forcing itself to highlight a checklist at every stop. Likewise, just because one locality is famous for a type of seafood or cuisine, this will not stop the same seafood or cuisine being mentioned again if another town also happens to be famous for it.
The writing style of the author is somewhat entertaining and inimical in itself. He tends to wax superlative into absolutes. No wishy washy qualification, he confidently proclaims something is "the best" or "perfect" instead of equivocating. There are amusing oxym descriptions of alpine flowers at sea level and manmade natural wonders. These idiosyncrasies make the account more personal and authentic and help distinguish it from the travel guide spam.

3/3 When was the last time you travelled somewhere new?

in response to your ask game, i now know that this is false but for a very long time after reading down like new york city (wild like los angeles) i was very convinced that you were from new zealand, lol. (and also that you've been to a LOT of places, though i still do kinda believe that) <3
sad fact: I have never been to new zealand :(
most of the places that feature in that fic were researched via google maps and lots of hotel booking websites and were not based on personal experience!
that said, I have been to a lot of places around the globe, including plenty of places in Northern America, Western Europe, East Asia, and a handful of other places. so you're not wrong :)
cities from the fic that I actually have been to: prague, new york city, venice, london, singapore, shanghai, seoul, las vegas, noboribetsu, los angeles, and boston.

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Namimori Location
(Documenting my research process so I won't forget and get confused why I did something in a fic during a later read through. Nothing serious really.)
Where exactly is Namimori in canon?
As I was writing a khr fic, I realized I needed the exact location of Namimori for one sentence. A sentence that wasn't even important in the long run. Rather than abandon that single sentence I decided to try and locate where the town of Namimori would be in Japan. Because apparently I like pain.
There is virtually no information on the actual location of Namimori anywhere. So I had went on a research binge. And I found something that gave me a starting point.
In 2009, there was a special KHR episode that was aired during the Jump Super Anime Tour titled, Vongola Style School Trip, Arrives!
Saying that I found it is not that accurate. Its more that I went looking for an episode like this specifically. This isn't the first time I tried to locate fictional locations on a map for the sake of the plot. And I've realized that episodes centered around trips provide amazing clues, especially where the trip starts, where it ends, the scenery outside etc.
Thats what I hoped for here as well. And the hunch paid off! Between timestamps 3:07-3:10, there's a map. Not very detailed mind you. Just enough to show the direction where they came from. But that's better than nothing.
So they're going to Nagoya city, which is in the Aichi Prefecture. Its in the Chūbu region. It also looks like they're coming from the Kanto region, possibly from the direction of Tokyo.
So that means we can leave out the Kansai, Chugoku, Shikoku, and Kyushu regions in the south. There's no way Namimori is in Hokkaido, or Okinawa, so those two prefectures are out as well. The most likely locations for the town to be in is in the Kanto, and Chubu regions.
Comparing the physical map of Japan with the short glimpse we get, I'm reasonably sure they passed by Mt. Fuji as well.
Tumblr media
See that little protrusion under Fuji-san? I'm pretty sure thats what we see in the map shown in the episode. So yeah they passed Mount Fuji.
Another thing, see that arch like thing before the protrusion? Thats Kanagawa prefecture, and we can see in the very beginning of the video, around the 0.03-0.04 timestamps, that they don't start anywhere there.
Tumblr media
See? They pass by it completely and started somewhere well before Kanagawa. So Kanagawa is out.
Lets go back to Fuji-san again.
The mountain lies between the Yamanashi and Shizuoka prefecture borders.
That gives us three possible routes:
Chiba-> Tokyo-> Yamanashi-> Shizuoka-> Aichi [Nagoya City}
Tokyo-> Yamanashi-> Shizuoka-> Aichi [Nagoya City}
Yamanashi -> Shizuoka -> Aichi [Nagoya City]
Why did I decide on Tokyo as the starting point in Kanto despite there being other prefectures in the region?
In KHR's seventh volume, Hot Summer Arrives!, we get chapter 57, Swimming at the Sea. Its a beach chapter.
The beach is described as being close by and the fact that Ryohei's boxing club senpai, Kuroda Eiji and his buddies Kisanuki Yukio and Ookura Takuya, apparently work there as lifeguards, supports this. (You know...cos they're in middle school and all and jobs at that age tend to be close by...for civilians at least.)
Which means that prefectures like Saitama, Tochigi, and Gunma, which are all landlocked as you can see on the map below, are automatically disqualified as locations for Namimori.
By that same logic, Yamanashi is also disqualified.
Ibaraki is not counted because despite the abrupt beginning and ending of the map scene in the episode, we can guess that the starting point of the trip wasn't quite that far back. By the curve of the arrow I mean. {Yeah I know this is a reach but I'm pretty sure I'm right.}
Tumblr media
That just leaves Tokyo and Chiba.
The argument in favour of Chiba is a meta one. Tokyo is an iconic location when it comes to manga and anime. Most anime set in Tokyo shows several shenanigans centered around Tokyo's various landmarks. Even works not set in Tokyo sometimes have Tokyo episodes and Tokyo adventures. Like Haikyuu for example.
Considering how much shenaniganry and crackishness KHR has, it would be very strange if it was set in Tokyo and yet didn't have any Tokyo misadventures in it. Reborn would just go ahead and name Tokyo Tower Vongola Tower or something just like he named Nagoya Castle Vongola Castle. So Namimori might not be in Tokyo, but in Chiba instead...which is still part of the Greater Tokyo Area now that I think about it, so still Tokyo in a way?
I couldn't find a way to clearly articulate an argument in favour of Tokyo when a friend send me this link.
I was walking on a path well-tread! @ladydraculena had already slashed through the figurative jungles for me!
I went looking for the two locations marked in the map in their post but it seems like Namimori Steamed Buns has since closed down. Hibari Nursery School on the other hand is going strong.
Tumblr media
With this information the argument in favour of Tokyo grew much stronger.
Thus canonically the town of Namimori is most likely located in Tokyo and if not in Tokyo proper, definitely in the Greater Tokyo Area.
(Please note that I left the Tohoku region out of this. The region is very distinct and neither anime nor the manga has shown a singular sign of being set in Tohoku. By that I mean that if a work is set in Tohoku, it would be impossible to hide its Tohoku, or mistake it as somewhere else.)
Edit: @rooigseix pointed out that since most of KHR's usual shenanigans strictly happens in Namimori, the usual Tokyo adventure trope meta might not be applicable in this case. Namimori might be far away from Tokyo centre like the Ota or Edogawa districts, which are close to the sea as well.
Edit: @lightning-will-bovino pointed out Kokuyo land and there is in fact a theme park called Noah Forest Amusement Park or Mori-no-Yeunchi near the Hibari Nursery School!
It seems very likely that Amano-sensei was inspired by the area. It might not be where Namimori is actually located but the existence of these establishments in close quarters lends further credence to the theory of Namimori being in the Tokyo area.
In conlusion, the most likely location of Namimori would be in Tokyo prefecture but close to the Chiba border. Not landlocked as well.
Tumblr media
Thus, Edogawa ward is the most suitable location.
And after all of that, I decided that Tokyo wasn't a good fit for my fic's Namimori and by my magical writer powers shifted it to Mie Prefecture instead. ╥﹏╥

Lastly, just wanted to show the color-changing mug via the Japanese Pokemon Center's Tandemaus/Maushold line:
