( =ω=) What?  It’s supposed to be in Tokyo, since it’s called Tokyo Disney Land, isn’t it?  Is that what you’re thinking now?  I’ll tell you.  It’s in Chiba next to Tokyo, not in Tokyo!

 

( =ω=) And... one more thing that we’re proud of about Chiba?!

☆Chiba Prefecture’s mascot character

Name: Chi-ba Kun

Birthday: January 11th, 2007

 

It’s a mysterious creature which lives in Chiba Prefecture.  He looks like a shape of Chiba being seen from side.  Especially when he faces something new, his body shines red, being confident and passionate.

 

 

 

( ∪=ω=) Chiba Prefecture’s red watchdog, also known as Chi-ba Kun!  I’ve seen him on the street before, but I didn’t know that his body shines red.  His attractive feature is a tongue sticking out from his mouth!

☆Good points about Chiba Prefecture

 ( =ω=) Population of Chiba Prefecture is approximately 6,000,000.  Most regions are flat and three directions are surrounded with ocean!  Especially a southern sea is so beautiful that I recommend it for a sightseeing spot!  Fish caught from the sea are delicious too!

( *=ω=) As I mentioned earlier, we also have Tokyo Disney Land!  It’s about time they started the Halloween event...  I wanna try a haunted mansion there.

 

 

 

 

 

Anime and Chiba

 

( =ω=) Now, are you guys ready?  Now, I’m going to share some of Chiba’s towns appearing in anime with you guys!

 

 

 

Chiba

 

 

 

ja.wikipedia.org

 

 

 

( =ω=) Chiba city is a capital of Chiba Prefecture!  It’s a very useful and accessible city with lots of highways and railroads.  (A purple part in the map is Chiba city.)  Look!  You can see such monorail there too!

 

 

 

☆Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai

( =ω=)  You see so many Kirino-Chan, who is a heroine of Oreimo?!  Striped patterns of yellow and white stand out, doesn’t it?  By the way, if you can get to ride on this monorail, you can even hear Kirino-Chan or Kuroneko’s announcement inside!

 

 

 

blog.goo.ne.jp

 

 

 

( =ω=) Do you remember the monorail appearing in the opening of anime, Oreimo too?

( =ω=) Did you see the name of the department store in the anime?  It was ‘SOSO’, right?  The real one is actually ‘SOGO”!

 

 

 

☆Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru

( =ω=) I’ve been there several times, but there are some fashionable stores and restaurants there!  (But it’s a little far from the station though...)  If you get to visit Chiba, please go there!  But you know what???  Unfortunately, Chiba PARCO will be closed in 2016.  If anybody actually wants to go and see there, which was the stage of OreGairu, this year will be the last chance!

 

 

 

 

 

Sakura

 ( =ω=) Sakura (a thick pink part on the map) is located in a little above from Chiba city that I just showed you.  There are some historical places such as a museum or a mansion where Samurai used to live!  Speaking of anime that has Sakura.....

Tsudanuma
