Kamen Rider Filming Locations

Post by Actar »

I am planning to go to Japan later this month (next week actually) and, being a Kamen Rider fan, plan to visit some of the more famous filming locations that were used in Kamen Rider. However, I have absolutely no idea where they are in real life. The one that I really want to go to is of course the real-life building that was used as a base for the Narumi Detective Agency in W. Does anyone know where it is? (^.^)

Unfortunately there's no English guide, but this Japanese site is very good for locations. Most of the places have pictures so you can see them, but if there's no picture, you can copy and paste the address into google and see if there's a street view

Thanks a ton! Hm... that's more out of the way than I had initially thought, but I'll see if it's still possible to go.

Okay. Just visited the Detective Agency yesterday. Man, it was pretty far away from Tokyo, taking about an hour plus to get there via train. But man was it worth it. Brought along my T2 Joker Gaia Memory and did some poses in front of it and took a few pictures. Really was a blast to be at the actual site of such a memorable (recent) Kamen Rider landmark.

Sadly, couldn't schedule in a visit to the Odaiba bridge, but thanks so much for the tip! (^.^)

sucks that they took down the billiards sign. did they put guard rails to prevent people from entering? you should have went to the odaiba bridge.
