We are very grateful to many anime fans around the world who applied for the “Anime Tourism Survey” from June 1 to September 22, 2019 so as to select “Japanese Anime 88-Spots (2020 Edition).” Thanks to your passionate support, we received 80,000 votes, more than double the number last year.

In this “Anime Tourism Survey,” we would like to offer, by lottery, a prize of e-money or the like which can be used in Japan to those who participated in the event, as an “Anime spot visiting support campaign,” so as to support anime fans who visit anime spots in Japan.

This time, at the “Fudasho Stop 1” in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, the lottery was organized by our association’s Managing Director Suzuki and Secretary Teraya and some other members of the association.

The lottery was set up in the following manner: each of those who voted was given a 5-digit serial number, a plurality of slips each with a number from 0 to 9 were put into a poll box, a 5-digit number was decided by the lottery manager drawing these slips until 5 digits were drawn, and if the 5-digit number matched any of the participants’ numbers, he/she was a winner.

We would like to send a notification to the prize winner by e-mail to the winner’s registered e-mail address. The mail will be delivered by December 25, 2019, so please look forward to it.

We will also offer presents that anime fans would like for next year’s “Anime Spots WEB Poll,” so please participate in next year’s poll too if you can.

See the list for the selected anime titles and regions.

An overview of 88 anime pilgrimage sites and works on a large panel. Get detailed information via QR codes!

The most eye-catching feature of this spot is the large information panel showcasing works of anime and manga, as well as every anime pilgrimage site. The titles of the works showcased are listed alphabetically by their romaji names. The names of pilgrimage sites are also listed in English for ease of reference by anime fans from abroad.

The works are numbered in order starting from Hokkaido, and further divided into seven colors based on geographic region. A quick scan of the QR code will take you to the respective work’s page on the anime tourism website.

The anime pilgrimage map combines a full map of Japan with detailed views of the regions of Kanto, Kansai, and Tokyo’s 23 wards. Fans from abroad can conveniently see which pilgrimage sites are near their destinations and plan their visits.

Get excited for your anime tour with exhibitions, character figurines, and photo spots.

Opposite the information panel is a series of showcases featuring goods related to anime. Some of these goods are hard to find abroad, so they will most likely attract the attention of visitors from other countries.

Though the goods on display are not available for purchase on site, a quick scan of the QR code to the side of the showcases will take you to an anime goods shopping website. This online shopping platform offers overseas shipping, so visitors from abroad can still purchase their favorite goods from the comfort of their home.

Next to the goods showcases is an “Anime Tourism Gallery” zone, featuring periodic exhibitions.

Offering new ways to enjoy anime tourism

As the launch project, the spot is currently hosting a “Photographs of Anime Pilgrimage Sites with Figures” exhibit. This exhibit features figurines being photographed at their respective anime’s pilgrimage site, located in areas that are easily accessible from Narita International Airport, such as Tokyo (Love Live!), Chiba Prefecture (Oreimo), Saitama Prefecture (Encouragement of Climb), and Kanagawa Prefecture (HIGH SCHOOL FLEET).

To anime fans, taking photos at a real life location at angles that match their favorite anime scenes is at the top of their to-do list, and we want to suggest more ways to allow everyone to have fun. The exhibit will change approximately every four months.

With certified “Anime Pilgrimage” site plaque, official shuin stamp, and more, there is plenty more to enjoy!

Further inside the spot, you will find the plaque certifying the “Anime Pilgrimage” site, and a stamp station to collect your official shuin stamp. The plaques and shuin stamps are being installed at various pilgrimage sites across the country, but the number “0” plaque is perhaps particularly special, so make sure to take a commemorative photo here. In addition, the official shuincho stamp book that was first sold in limited quantities at AnimeJapan 2018 in March will be available for purchase starting in late May.

Here you can take photos with life-size cutouts of anime characters, buy collectibles at the Gacha vending machines, and more. Pamphlets on the anime pilgrimage sites are also available for free in Japanese, English, and Chinese (Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese).

Narita International Airport is the start of many journeys, but it is also a large shopping destination. Even those who are not traveling come check the shops out. If you get the chance to visit Narita International Airport, please come by!
