Walk around Ginza flat

[Wind in all directions] December 14, 2016 16:00

It's wind on all sides.

 

I wanted to walk around Ginza because I didn't have any intention, so I walked from 1-chome to 8-chome with GINZAMAP (Ginza Subway Entrance Guide Map).

 

Because what I brought was the 2015 edition, the number of red pen writing on the map increased while watching the number of changes such as buildings to be renovated, new stores, and relocation of stores. The site of the Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Blue Market and the monument of the birthplace of Edo Kabuki are under construction, and the Okuno Building will be renovated until the end of January.

Ginza is a city that advances the times, and this change is Ginza's GINZA.

 

However, the alleyway that passes Hodo Inari from Matsuya-dori to the back of Tensho-do, and from Kojunsha-dori, the alley that opens and closes several coffee shops automatic doors and passes through Toyo Iwaine cargo, and the extreme is the daytime dark alley of Kinharukoji, It is still unrelated to the hustle and bustle. I'll post photos of day and night.

 

Christmas season is gorgeous all day long. Everyone, please walk around Ginza. There may be Ginza that will disappear in the age of next year.

[It's the stage of anime] The Lion in March and Chuo-ohashi Bridge (Shinkawa and Tsukuda)

[Dye] December 14, 2016 09:00

Now, I'm doing an anime called "March Lion" every Saturday night on NHK.

 
This is a story about Rei Kiriyama, a professional shogi player who lost his parents when he was young, growing through interaction with the Kawamoto family and his friends, but the original comic is a very famous work, and in the spring of next year Ryunosuke Kamiki It is a work that will also be a movie starring.

    

The stage will be Shinkawa, Chuo-ku, Tsukuda-Tsukishima area.

 Movie → http: //3lion-movie.com/

 
If you're watching manga or anime, "What's the scenery of this! There is only a place where I think.
So, on a sunny day, I decided to follow them.
For those who don't know the anime, what is it? ? It may be...Please associate m(__)m

   

      
First of all, when I went along Kajibashi Street toward Hatchobori from Showa-dori, in the first scene, "Takahashi" was crossing to head for the game with my father-in-law.

It seems that I walked to Tokyo Station from here, but there is a distance. 。 (´・ω・) 

But it might have been just right because I was about to reunion of tension, like I was scared to meet you because I wanted to meet you.

    

s36_01.jpg s36_02.jpg
"Takahashi" was founded in the Edo period.

It seems that the name is derived from the high Arched bridge so that it does not bother the ship.
You can see "Minami Takahashi" in the back. It is the oldest railway bridge in Tokyo and the ward Tangible Cultural Property.

     

    
After a short walk across Takahashi, you will see Chuo-ohashi Bridge on your right.

    

s36_03.jpg

    

      
By the way, after crossing Takahashi, go straight while looking at Chuo-ohashi Bridge to the right, and you will see Mikazukido....Instead, there is "Suiedo". The strawberry Daifuku here is wrapped in anko, but the strawberries are large and fresh, and super delicious.

s36_04.jpg s36_05.jpg

(PA PO PO ANG) oh!...It's derailed. I will return to Chuo-ohashi Bridge.

     

     
"Chuo-ohashi Bridge" can be said to be the main part of the work.
It is a bridge between June-cho (= Shinkawa?), Where Zero lives, and March-cho (= Tsukishima?), Where the Kawamoto family lives.


s36_07.jpg s36_08.jpg
I personally like the scene of Zero, who was lonely, holding a warm karaage from the Kawamoto family and returning across this bridge.
(I also like karaage, isn't it relevant?...(^^;) )

   

    

The Chuo-ohashi Bridge was built in 1993, and was designed by a French design company in the image of a Japanese helmet. The "Messenger Statue" commemorating the friendship between the Sumida River and the Seine faces the Sky Tree.

s36_09.jpg
The image of a woman holding a sailing ship is the French ship guardian angel.

   
What's the scenery seen from the room? ? ? I'm living in a good place.

s36_14.jpg


"Reigan Island water level station" often appears on the cover of Chapter 2.

s36_10.jpg

This is the starting point for measuring water levels in Japan.


At the beginning of Chapter 3. It's calm to do it here.

It's nice to take a break in Paris.

s36_11.jpg

   

I often come here. Door picture of Chapter 5...

I'm going to see you.

s36_13.jpg

    

    
The scenery and cityscapes with bridges and rivers in Chuo-ku play a role in expressing the loneliness and conflict of zero and the warmth of the Kawamoto family.

    

I also crossed the bridge while thinking, "Wow, it's beautiful" with my child riding behind my bicycle.
Under the high speed near the river "somewhat anxiety"..."I feel like that.
Interaction with local people makes you feel "warm-" or feel

   

I love the beautiful and distinctive bridges and rivers, and the city with a lot of warmth of people.

     
That's why the psychological description of the characters says, "I understand.... (>_<) "and more emotionally than other works. It's not bright in shogi, so if you know it, you can enjoy it more....

Learn with Nya Shogi

    
...And it's time-up here. (a little)
Tsukishima seems to have more spots, but this time it's so far because the area around Chuo-ohashi Bridge was too cozy and relaxed.

    

If you are interested, please take a walk with a comic in hand.
Immerse yourself in the world of lions in March.

Bordeaux closed

[Many Books] December 9, 2016 18:00

On the morning of December 7, I was looking at the Tokyo Shimbun Web site.

There was an article saying that "Bordeaux", the oldest existing bar in Ginza, will close on December 22.

 

Located in Ginza 8-chome, when I walked around Ginza on October 13, I saw it before going to Tokyo Gallery and thought, "It's a building with a very atmosphere", and when I looked up it, it was a venerable bar. Did you want to go before closing?

"Primary to the Holy Land"-The Holy Land is right next to you~

[Koedo Itabashi] December 8, 2016 14:00

A movie theater where you entered with a couple discount.

What I wanted to see was "Your name."

It's been a long time.

As the story goes on, she is holding tears with a handkerchief.

While feeling that sign, the pretty heroine Mitsuha overlapped with you and made me happy.

Shinjuku, Yoyogi, Shinanomachi, Yotsuya, Tokyo Station.

Look, isn't it a place that everyone knows?

He drew the scenery of the city so vividly.

Hida Takayama, Hidafurukawa.

I went here with my family too.

The depth of the mountains, the autumn leaves of the trees, and the glow of the night was beautiful.

Even after leaving the movie theater, the rhythm of RADWIMPS insertion song was running around.

 

The pilgrimage to the Holy Land, which was selected for the buzzword award, is far from its original religious implications.

He has changed to an action that places himself on the stage of the story, confirms the buzz of his heart, and re-recognizes his excitement.

 

Chuo-ku has been featured as a stage for television, movies, novels, etc.

I have a comic book that I have all the books since "Slumdank".

It is the "Lion in March" drawn by Chika Haumino.

How does the writer with a soft style of "Honey and Clover" express the world view of Pean and professional shogi players who are stuck?

I got the first volume from that interest, but I continued to read it.

Rei Kiriyama, a junior high school student who made a professional debut to the shogi world.

The area where he works is modeled is based on various places in Chuo-ku.

Let's leave Sendagaya, where the Shogi Kaikan is located, as a special case.

March-cho, where the Kawamoto family is located, is the neighborhood of Tsukishima and Tsukuda.

Is June-cho, where there is a zero apartment across Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Shinkawa?

Akari, the eldest daughter of the Kawamoto family, works in a bar in Ginza.

Various places in the ward effectively express the inside of the swaying characters.

The warm family of the Kawamoto family is on the red balustrade of Tsukuda Kobashi.

The waves of the Sumida River.

The groan of the Harp Bridge, which is blown by strong winds.

 

Anime has been broadcast on NHK General since October at 11:00 on Saturday.

(Isn't it the time for a good child to sleep in bed!)

In the first part in March 2017 and the second part in April, the screening of a live-action movie in which Ryunosuke Kamiki plays Rei Kiriyama has also been decided.

Well, the stage is ready.

Let's start a pilgrimage to the Holy Land of the Lion in March.

I will definitely meet new charms.

Charity of Ginza beeswax candle

"Ginza Bee Project" aims to coexist with cities and nature.

It is made of rare beeswax from the bee nest in Ginza.

20161204SR5.jpg

1000 yen per bottle. Limited 100 bottles!


Each has a cute design and a solid quality.

The feeling of buying charity goods "I'm a little excited today"

Happiness that can be experienced from 300 yen

Each one, of course, for myself

I think you will be happy if you buy it as a gift or souvenir.
