So, in my previous post, I shared about this anime you read in the title. I found some posts about the real locations of this anime and YouTube also recommends some videos regarding this one and it's available with English captions. You can find some of it down below.

In the previous post, I wonder whether there is a school with Observatory. Frankly enough I got the answer. There is a school in Ishikawa Prefecture with an Observatory, really cool right? It is Nanao High School. I think every place in the scenes was original, so it’s like many awesome Japanese productions that are made by research, Insomniacs After School is also one of those awesome works. This anime has successfully delivered the message about ‘Safe Place’ between two people who shared souls.

Whenever I miss the beauty of the scenery, the joy feeling after strolling around the lovable places, or some music that made my day, I try to fill my heart by just looking through YouTube. It’s great that Japan has this kind of sweet taste and style, in cinematography, photography, documentary vlog, score background, everything… besides their culture, places, or foods. You can enjoy it by just watching it, even though you’ve never been there before but you will fall for it. And I know what must I search for whenever those feelings hit me. Hopefully, I can experience it in real life, I hope you do too as well :)
