Sailor Moon

The shrine, the shopping street and the park are all real, and all in Azabu-Juban.

Naoko Takeuchi lived in **Azabu-Juban** while drawing Sailor Moon, and it shows: the shopping street, the park and the shrine in the series are the real ones, drawn from a few minutes' walk of each other. Azabu Hikawa Shrine is the model for Hikawa Shrine where Rei lives, and it is often called the site that started anime pilgrimage in Japan at all. Nothing is themed or marked — this is an affluent, quiet residential district with embassies on it, and the appeal is that the places simply exist as drawn.
