I know I reversed the order of the places they visited, but I did this to avoid the crowds and get better photos. Yotsuya Station also shows up later in the film when Taki and Okudera-senpai meet up to take a walk and talk about their trip to Itomori-chō a few years before. Yotsuya Station is a major commuter station, so be careful with crowds while you take pictures.
