Yes. The road alignment at the east end of Nishigamo Bridge is distinctive, and the surrounding residential layout makes matching the frame fairly straightforward on site or on Street View.

Yes, but this is a normal residential roadside area, so stay out of traffic, avoid blocking driveways, and keep noise low while photographing.

What is the easiest public transport access to this location?

Most visitors use a Kyoto City Bus toward the Nishigamo area and get off near Nishigamo Shako-mae, then walk several minutes to the east end of Nishigamo Bridge.

Yasaburou stands along a quiet Kyoto street near the east end of Nishigamo Bridge in a calm but watchful moment.
This moment appears as the character moves through the streets of Kyoto, carrying a reflective and slightly guarded mood. Yasaburou walks along a familiar road that seems calm on the surface, yet he is still preoccupied with his family’s conflicts and the delicate, dangerous relationships among tanuki, humans, and tengu. Rather than presenting open drama, the scene uses an ordinary city street to mirror his inner thoughts, showing that even in a relaxed stride he is watching his surroundings and thinking about how to face what comes next. In real life, the anime recreates the street corner around the east end of Nishigamo Bridge with impressive accuracy: the road layout, nearby houses, and street width all match the actual place well, making the original location easy to recognize. Although the anime simplifies some background details such as signage, utility wires, and road markings, it preserves the quiet residential atmosphere, the openness near the bridge, and the everyday northern Kyoto character. Comparing it with real photos or Street View, some traffic signs, roadside fixtures, and plants may have changed over time, but the main geography and camera angle remain easy to reproduce, making this a very accessible and satisfying pilgrimage spot.
