Is this anime spot directly outside Keihan Ishiyama Station?

Yes. The scene corresponds to the entrance area of Keihan Ishiyama Station, connected with JR Ishiyama Station, so it is very easy to access once you exit to the station-front side.

Can I take comparison photos here without problems?

Yes, casual photography from public space is generally fine, but avoid blocking passengers at the entrance and do not use tripods in busy pedestrian flow areas.

Are there useful facilities nearby for a short pilgrimage stop?

Yes. Because this is a major station interchange, you will find convenience stores, cafes, restrooms, and bus/taxi access nearby, making it easy to include in a wider Otsu-area anime trip.

Rikka and Yuuta are shown near the entrance area of Keihan Ishiyama Station during a quiet transition scene in the film.
This moment appears during a travel transition in the story and carries the atmosphere of a brief stop along the journey. When Rikka and Yuuta pause near the station, their emotions are not openly dramatic, but instead show a quiet mix of unease, dependence, and mutual understanding. For them, this is more than a simple moving scene; it feels like a small breathing space in the middle of changes in their relationship. In the surrounding plot, they are dealing with the pressures of reality and growing up while still trying to preserve the special bond that belongs only to them, so the scene feels calm, gentle, and full of anticipation for what comes next. The real-life counterpart is the entrance area of Keihan Ishiyama Station, and the anime is quite faithful in its overall composition, especially in the placement of the station entrance, the direction of the road, and the massing of the nearby buildings, making it easy for locals and fans to recognize. The most useful comparison points on site are the station exterior, the entrance canopy, and the guidance signage, although real-world signs, advertisements, and notices may have changed since the film’s release. In terms of streetscape, the anime slightly simplifies visual clutter so the characters stand out more, while the real station frontage feels busier with cars, pedestrians, bicycles, and seasonal planting. Overall, it is a highly recognizable and well-recreated pilgrimage spot, especially rewarding when compared with Street View and an on-location perspective.
