Turn the Shibuya Incident from “I remember that scene” into “I stood there.” We begin near Harajuku / Meiji-jingumae, then ride straight to the exact subway platform where Gojo clashes with special-grade threats and is sealed in the Prison Realm. From there, we walk the arc in story order across 7 key battlefields and turning points, including Yuji vs. Choso, Jogo vs. Nanami, Maki, and Naobito, Megumi’s major turning points, and Nanami’s final battle, so the real distances, scale, sightlines, and crowd flow finally click. At each stop, I’ll show screenshots for precise scene matching and help you recreate iconic compositions if you want photos (solo travelers welcome).
