Love Live Sunshine: Izu Mito Sea Paradise 伊豆・三津シーパラダイス

Having had no plans to visit Mito Sea Paradise because it costs a hefty 2,200yen at the door, I had minimal reference materials "just in case". Just in case indeed, as I randomly stumbled upon a ticketing shop in Numazu, selling near-expired exchange vouchers for 950yen (Usually 1100-1200yen). Now, I simply had to go!

I used the 2-day pass mentioned in my HPT post for transport for this visit.
Transport from Numazu: 600yen + 190yen (JR to Mishima to buy said pass)
MitoSea Ticket: 950Yen
Total: 1740yen

P.S. Tokai Bus (Round Trip from Numazu, 2730yen) and Izu-Hakone Rail/Bus (one-way transportation, 2280yen from Mishima) also sell combined package tickets. However, they're not as cheap as the killer Awashima deal.

みとしーに行く予定は無かったので「ついで」の程度の準備しかしてませんでした。入口での2200円の入場料が重いかったのですがまぐれに金券ショップを見つけ、950円 (普段は1100-1200円)で期限がもうすぐ切れる切符を手に入れました！

HPTのポストで書いた外人用のパスを利用しみとしーに行きました。
沼津からの交通費: 600円 + 190円(パスを買うためJRで三島駅まで)
みとしーの入場料: 950円
合計: 1740円

東海バス(沼津から往復、2730円)と伊豆箱根(三島から片道のみ、2280円)もパッケージ切符を売っています。淡島のパッケージほどトクではありません。

Due to Typhoon damage from October 2017, part of the outdoor area was off limits. This is my best attempt at the penguin house.

Biggest disappointment, the performance venue of KoiAqu is not in Mito Sea!
一番のガッカリは、恋アクの演出の舞台はみとしーには無い!



Off-topic, but Mito Sea's animals seem well looked after and the shows are of high quality. It definitely seemed to attract a lot of "normies" when I visited on April 7, 2018.

番外編、みとしーの動物たちの管理は良さそうで演出もとても面白かった。2018年4月7日に入った日にはライバーでは無い「一般市民」の客が多く来てました。




Note: Even visiting the souvenir shop to purchase Uchichi goods requires an entrance ticket.
注意: うちっちーグッズを買うため店に入りたいだけでも入場料が必要です。 

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it!

A Silent Voice - The Shape of Location (Part 1 of 3)

The time was 9:30am on July 29, 2017. Yet another blazing hot summer's day in Japan but today was no ordinary day. I'm in the waiting room at Taiyou joshi gakuen mae Gifu station to meet up with a man, whose employment information is completely inaccessible from Japan. A man shrouded in mystery, from an organization that has no shape or form. But one thing I did hear from outside his company's Great Firewall of Japan is that he had something to do with selling crunchy cookies, and that a collegue of his liked getting stepped on... The clock turns 9:35 and out comes a pleasant looking man, around 10 years my junior I reckon. The man is no other than Wilhelm Donko ( @Surwill on Twitter), the good man responsible for writing his excellent Anime vs Real Life articles on Crunchyroll. P.s. Dear Crunchyroll, please, please unblock your articles from Japan so venerable members of Japan's Butaitanbou Community (i.e. anime location enthusiasts) can form links with English-...

A Silent Voice - The Shape of Location (Part 2 of 3)

Leaving Ueno's pedestrian crossing behind, Surwill and I headed towards Ogaki castle for our next, key location and was in for a surprise. We had unexpectedly stumbled upon the beautiful Yoro waterfall! (Click on image for a large version) You see, anime location hunting for us really gives a huge sense of pleasure and satisfaction, but it was still over 30c and and we jokingly discussed the plausibility of fooling our audience and saving a lot of sweat in the process! For Yoro was located a fair distance out of Ogaki. Just beside the castle is a children's playground. As the former Top Gear trio, now The Grand Tour has shown, adults are simply big children and it did not stop two adults with highly respectable professions to have plenty of fun and games! Speaking of which, KyoAni staff also had plenty of fun and games rearranging trees and street furniture to create the perfect shot. A further 10 minute walk from the playground took us to the most important ...

Love Live Sunshine - Obscure Locations in Tokyo!

This trip and post would not have been possible without the Love Live Season 2 Locations Map by @Cukter   My utmost thank you to him for creating such an amazing resource. I had just landed at Haneda Airport at 4:30am in the morning on 31st March 2018. Taking the first train out, I headed into Tokyo, not for the drinks, the game bars nor pachinko. The Tokyo locations of Love Live Sunshine (both seasons) awaited! The first place to visit was Tokyo station to look for some hidden doujinshi in the lockers. Kabedon! to be precise.  Obligatory Snow Halation shot outside Tokyo Station   Riko stored her treasures at the Marunouchi North Exit of Tokyo Station (S1E12).   Upon entering the station, we are greeted by its beautiful interior. For some unfathomable reason, the producers decided to use the Tokyo Metro map instead of the JR map at the ticket machines. Just beside this atrium is an entrance to the passageway where Riko decided to locker he...
