The story map of the stage in Chuo-ku

[Koedo Itabashi] February 26, 2015 09:00

It was here.

Edo bus map.

This is the service map of Chuo-ku Community Bus.

"Maps over the Story"

If you spread it, along with the Edo bus service route on the map of Chuo-ku, the place where movies, dramas, and novels were staged is described along with commentary.

I thought it would be nice, this map.

In magazines, etc., it is sometimes featured for each area, but there are surprisingly few for each ward.

 

Around Nihonbashi, Ryohei Nishigishi's comic live-action movie "ALWAYS 3-chome Sunset" is featured.

In Tokyo in 1959, Nihonbashi with a view of the sky was reflected.

 

"Naoki Hanzawa" is based on the original work of Jun Ikeido, who was converted into a TV drama in 2013.

The location was held at Mitsui Main Building as the head office of the Central Bank of Tokyo where he works.

Managing Director Owada, played by Teruyuki Kagawa, was a masterpiece.

If you imitate that figure and shoot the scene of Doshitaza with the Mitsui Main Building in the background, it will be one that you will want to show.

 

"Kirin's Tsubasa" is a novel by Keigo Higashino.

Is it possible to walk from the underpass of Edobashi to Nihonbashi, where the winged Kirin statue is installed, while the abdomen is stabbed?

The day after watching the movie, I went through the same route, holding my belly and dragging my feet.

It's too heavy for my body. ・・・。

That's why the statue of Kirin fluttering overlapped with people's thoughts.

 

One of my pleasures was walking on the stage of a novel with a paperback book.

Finding famous scenes hidden here and there in Chuo-ku while looking at the map, and relive it is also a fun that makes you feel better.

Actually, I got this map last year at the Kumin Center and left it in the gap between the books to see later.

It was created in June 2014, so I don't know if it's still available.

If you get it, you're super lucky.

 

 

[Showa Doritanken Record] #02: I'm going to work! Connect! Space (Ginza 3-chome)

[Dye] February 24, 2015 14:00

This time, we will introduce the co-working space "LEAGUE" (league) in Ginza 3-chome.

In addition to providing offices and personal booths as a service for members, there are conference rooms and cafe spaces that can be used by the general public.

It is located at the traffic light of Ginza Higashi 2-chome on Showa-dori in the southwest (in the direction of Tsukiji).

A 2-minute walk from Toei Asakusa Line Higashi-Ginza Station.

 

I'm not a member, but sometimes I use the cafe space on the first floor here.

Wifi can also be used for free, and it's a great environment when you have something to focus on.

I'll go back.◎

 

There is a sense of tension that can not be made in the library, but this is an adult space with moderate noise, as some people have meetings.

s12_03.jpg s12_04.jpg

s12_05.jpg s12_06.jpg

It's modern, beautiful and comfortable.

 

The conference room was also available to the general public, and one of them, the creative conference room.

This was originally an ordinary conference room, but it was renewed at the end of last year to a playful conference room that was full of playfulness, saying "It's boring."

I'm not good at long meetings, but I'll do my best here (#` ・ ω ・ ')!

The LED lighting that changes to 20 colors changes the mood (the photo is dark and gomennasai). Actually, it's brighter.

s12_09.jpg s12_10.jpg

The back of the mirror is a whiteboard, which can also be connected to PCs and iPads.

The drawer is equipped with fashionable stationery.

s12_11.jpg

There's also a sofa.

 

If we meet here, an interesting idea will come down.

It is said that it can be used in 3900 yen excluding tax / 1 hour, so it is easy to use even though it is a wonderful space.

 

LEAGUE is introduced on the homepage as "coworking space that creates a serenity (unforeseen encounter) and connects with future business friends", but people who are actually doing various jobs gather, I feel that a good space will create a good connection.

(As an aside, "serendipity" is a personal favorite word. Somehow good feeling...There's also a movie ♡)

 

You can use it a little by a non-member like me, but members have several types from 5,000 yen / month (Business Lounge: Saturdays and Sundays), and seem to be able to receive services such as bicycle rental .

Please refer to the link below for details.

Why don't you use it for on-the-go meetings and desk work for the busy end of the year?

Fish and vegetables

[Mr.Chuo-ku] February 20, 2015 09:00

This shop is recommended for those who want to eat a lot of fresh and delicious seafood.♪

 

It is a popular shop in Tsukishima, Chuo-ku, where you can line up especially during lunch.

"Haunting! It was also introduced in "Ad Street Heaven" and "Honnasty Sampo".

 

The manager seems to be a former middleman of "Tsukiji", and he visits "Tsukiji" three times a day (neighborhood of Tsukishima) and checks good things early.

There are a lot of fresh "grated wasabi" on board, so I'm happy for "wasabi lovers".♪

Tea Theory (Saron), Soil (Do), Kabuki

[Shiraji] February 17, 2015 09:00

  Once a month, Ginza "Ashino Salon" holds seminars for Kabuki fans such as tea theory (Saron), soil (Do), and Kabuki.
The content will be Kazuko Kanamori as a lecturer, and in order to enjoy Kabuki more deeply, the history and author of the performance centering on the performance of the Kabukiza Theater performance of the following month, the highlights of each curtain and the relationship between actors and roles, props and props The purpose is to give a lecture on the meaning of the scenes, etc., and to understand Kabuki more and immerse yourself in its charm.

 This time, a resume was distributed to the large Kabuki "Sugawara Densetsu Handbook" in March, and a detailed explanation was given using videos.

Sometimes kabuki actors come to see you....。

 Seminar lecturer Kazuko Kanamori has been free since 1976 after editing "Quarterly Kabuki" published by the Shochiku Theater Department, and has been involved in writing, editing, and reprinting mainly Kabuki for its spread, and since 1978 I have written an outline of Kabuki performance programs in Kabukiza, Osaka, Kyoto, and Nagoya for a quarter century. He has authored many books such as Kabuki Fashion, Kabuki Highlights to Understand easily, Kabuki Encyclopedia,Yoshitsune Senbonzakura, and others.

 

 For Kabuki fans participating in this seminar, tickets for both theaters of Kazuko Kanamori and Konpira Kabuki Theater Theater Theatre 4/13 (Mon) Part 2 and / 14 (Tue) Part 1 There is also a plan of 47,000 yen (limited to 25 people) for a night inn. (Local assembly and dissolution)
 Tickets alone (14,000 yen x 2), so I think it would be advantageous to be able to have a two-part co-watch "Konpira Kabuki", which is difficult to obtain, can be played together with "Kazuko Kanamori" and listen to the story.

 

 For those who can't go far, there is also a gathering called "Kabuki Watching Party", and the March performance is in the afternoon of March 15 (Monday).

 

In addition, the next "Tea theory (Saron), Soil (Do) and Kabuki" is 4/18 (Sat).

Membership fee ¥3,500 (with tea and sweets)      

Capacity limited to 35 people (reservation required)

 

 
 The organizer, Maigeisha, is an organization that aims to spread traditional performing arts (Japanese music, kabuki, folk performing arts, etc.) based on work related to the production of traditional performing arts and performing arts, as well as management work related to traditional performing arts, as well as workshops such as Gitayu and Narumono in variouslocal play.
 By the way, Mr. Takao Ashino, a member of the All Japan folk performing arts Association, was once the nephew of Japan's leading male chanson singer Hiroshi Ashino.
