Movies and TV series filmed in Bunkyō-ku

2 productions shot at 6 places inside Bunkyō-ku, each named beside it. No statement names Bunkyō-ku itself, so everything here is recorded against somewhere inside it.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Bunkyō-ku, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

Drawn from this place

Manga whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Bunkyō-ku as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
