This week’s chapter is only the first half of episode three.
Rin starts by reserving a campsite for the night - she’s at Nagisaen Camping Ground on Bentenjima - and actually, I already noticed this place a few volumes ago when I was looking for the location of the panel that showed where Nadeshiko used to live (it’s on the same island).
Then she goes to see the sea, parking in the Maisaka Omotehama Parking Lot (here is a shot of the parking costs sign by the entry way, uploaded just last November). I… probably don’t need to point out the location of the Hamano Oohashi from there.
She then uses the onsen at Kaishunro (though labelled Bentenro here), then stands on the waterfront about… here-ish? to watch the sunset.
Next day, Rin heads to Kanzanji Onsen, and in particular Shizubana. Don’t entirely know if the numbered tickets are real - in this video (which I’ve linked before - still has spoilers for next chapter, so if you don’t want to see, stop watching at 2:38, when she gets back in her car) she visits the place, but mentions only that there aren’t tickets because it’s a weekday. (And having seen this town on Google Maps, I wanna visit now. Ride that ropeway.)
On page 105, Nadeshiko is shown buying daibanyaki from Fujita, just across the road from Kiga Station. Internet research suggests that Kiga Station is the best place for her to transfer from a bus to the train - that train line actually starts in Hamamatsu (same place as the bus), but then goes so far out of the way that the bus is somewhat faster. But why change to the train?
Because Nadeshiko and Rin meet up at Hamanako-Sakume Station, three stops later on the same line. The birds are real.
(That said, she could have stayed on the same bus to get here. Or caught the train from Kakegawa Station. Guess she just wanted the daibanyaki.)
Page 99, in the anime, Nadeshiko’s sister makes a point of asking if she’s got her mobile phone, which is an amusing callback to the first chapter.
Page 104, I want to know what on earth all those people needed with fifty packets of daifuku. Are they hosting their entire extended families? All of them? Or running a re-selling black market on the side?
Page 105, I rather thought the shop attendant was a woman, but in the anime, it’s a man. (He kinda has an afro… I wonder if he’s meant to be Afro.)
