Mt. Iwafune before the collapse

Mt. Iwafune (岩船山, Iwafuneyama) is a mountain in Tochigi, Japan, with a height of 172.2m. The mountain appears in 5 Centimeters per Second.

History[]

After the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake, the western part of the mountain was partially collapsed.

In 5 Centimeters per Second[]

On March 4, 1995, Takaki Tōno's train is stopped by a snowstorm near this mountain. He passes by it in the next morning on his returning train.

At the end of 2007, when Akari Shinohara takes a train from Iwafune to Tokyo, she quietly looks at the scenery outside, and is reminded of her feeling for Takaki in the past.

Trivia[]

  • The mountain is mostly known as a filming site for tokusatsu shows, mainly the Super Sentai Series.
