As to be expected, this shrine had an area where people could hang Ema, or votive plates. 
People obtain them and then write wishes or prayers on the plaques to ask the kami of the shrine
for help in making the wish come true. However, as a shrine that heavily featured in anime, the 
ema of this one are quite unique. I had to wait a while for the tourists in the area to disperse before
I could gain access to these and photograph them. 



































I also got some photos of the flag displays they had set up to promote the 
Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu Ka collaboration.

Having finished my visit to Kanda Jinjya, it was time for me to go to the next place
on my map. This is a traditional Japanese sweets cafe and is marked on the map as 
Honoka's house. 


The GPS point I used to mark this sweets shop will likely take you to the side of it. 










I had some Agemanju inside and it was about the most delicious thing I've had. You should try
some if you pay this place a visit. 


I remembered it being mentioned in Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu Ka, so I orderedsome cream anmitsu. 
The food was delicious but it was very dark inside. 
I ended up having to try to hold my camera very still to capture enough light and yield
salvageable photos. This place is definitely worth a stop - come in and try the sweets,
especially the agemanju.

And that's it for my tour of most of the key locations from Love Live (and a few of those
reappeared in Love Live Sunshine). Next up is my tour of Numazu and Uchiura!
