The third hub of the series' backgrounds, all in western Tokyo, west of Shinjuku: the south exit plaza is recognised in one scene, with the minor details redrawn. Here too the match is not close (the photo comparison stops at ‘it is probably Mitaka Station’) because the series refers generically to the west side of the city without naming it. It is 1.7 km from the Kichijōji north exit and about 9 km from Meidaimae.
You and I Are Polar Opposites
The station of the fourth episode. The tenth also shows the crossroads in front of Mitaka Sangyō Plaza, on the main street just south of the exit, with the FamilyMart in the background; the eighth, further away towards Ōsawa, shows Kairikiya ramen.
