Is this Conan OVA spot easy to reach by train?

Yes. The intersection is right by Osaka-Uehommachi Station on the Kintetsu lines, so it is one of the easiest Conan pilgrimage spots in central Osaka to access on foot.

Can I safely recreate the anime angle at Kintetsu-mae Intersection?

You can photograph the scene from the sidewalk corners, but do not step into the roadway or block pedestrian flow at the crossing. A quick sidewalk shot is the safest and most practical method.

What should I expect to look different from the anime today?

Store signs, building fronts, and some traffic fixtures have changed over the years, but the road geometry and overall intersection layout still match well enough for a clear Street View and on-site comparison.

Conan, Heiji, and Kazuha stand at a busy Osaka street intersection as they continue their search for clues in the missing boy case.
This moment appears while the group is following clues about the missing boy, with Conan and Heiji moving through the streets of Osaka to piece together the case while Kazuha stays close and watches the situation unfold. The mood is tense and urgent, as the characters study their surroundings and think about their next move, showing both their focus on the investigation and their concern for the missing child’s safety. The intersection setting reinforces the rhythm of the case, a brief stop in the middle of a fast-moving search that builds pressure for the deduction to come. In real life, this scene corresponds to Kintetsu-mae Intersection in Osaka, and the anime recreates the road layout, the scale of the crossing, and the atmosphere of a busy commercial district with notable accuracy. Even though the anime simplifies signage and storefront details rather than reproducing real brand names, it still captures the feel of the area in front of Kintetsu very well. Compared with the actual location, some signs, shop façades, arcade details, and traffic equipment may have changed over time, but a Street View comparison still shows how closely the composition and street relationships match, making this a rewarding pilgrimage spot for fans.
