LIEU / LE CENTRE DE RECHERCHE

[Monsieur Vilak]

Mmmm, dans ce plan de l'épisode 17, il manque pas le lac?

[Bouleau Blanc]

Ce doit être la masse noire au centre.

Elle est en effet dans la direction des deux granges et de la maison de Rigel dans le plan plus haut et on les voit aussi sur cette image.

Intéressant aussi le tweet hélas sans réponse demandant : "Kōfu ? Ou Nagano ?" Je n'ai pas vu cet épisode trop intégré dans les réflexions sur la géographie de la série mais il y a peut-être des choses à y trouver.

[Monsieur Vilak]

Oki!

Étant donné qu'il n'y a aucune indication géographique dans l'épisode, évidemment que nous n'avons pas du en parler.
Je ne vois pas d'où peut venir cette interrogation Kofu/Nagano, mais ça titille ma curiosité.

This is the same map published on Mazinger Bible. Hard to say what city is it, or even if it is a real town, but according to the notes on that map,
it has to be in Nagano prefecture, not in Yamanashi prefecture (where Kōfu is).

As far as the location of the Shirakaba farm is concerned, there are three or four documents which all points clearly to Nagano prefecture.

Thank you.
I guess that those 3/4 documents are from magazine like TV-Land or BouKen Oh as well as Artbook and pictures books?
As long as they don't contradict what is said in the anime and keep being acceptable and logical, it suits with me!

One is the same map on Mazinger Bible, where the Space Center and the farm are depicted on the west side of the chain Yatsugatake.
Another one is the hand-written synopsis of ep. 1, the picture of which I found on the Mandarake auctions site.
The third one is a record with the story of the first two episodes narrated in Japanese, found on a youtube channel.
Other references are found in TV-Land.

Regarding n.2, the were only pics of 5 pages of the 14 total pages of the document, so it's difficult to compare with the whole episode. But, as far as I can read, it seems to me that the episode follows the synopsis.
One difference is that when Alcor sees the UFOs in the sky for the first time while flying on his TFO, he tries to communicate with them using a sort of "alien language" that makes no sense. He says "Chinmari, yotaneso, kapunpun", sort of gibberish, which he thinks is the language spoken by the aliens (similarly as Rigel would do in the same situation...) .

As far as the location of the Space Center is concerned, there is a description that doesn't appear in the episode. It says:

"Koji Kabuto 's beloved aircraft flew over Mount Fuji, and, in Shinshuu, arrived at the Yatsugatake Mountains. At the feet of Yatsugatake Mountains there is Dr Genzo Umon's Institute of Space Science".

Here we have the explicit mention of the place "Shinshuu" 信州, which is the old name for Nagano prefecture, also called Shinano no Kuni 信濃の国.
Therefore, according to this synopsis, the Institute is located at the feet of the chain Yatsugatake in Nagano Prefecture, that is, on the west side of the chain.
This is coherent with what we found in the map on p. 210 of Mazinger Bible, where the Yatsugatake Mountains are indicated on the east side of the farm, meaning that the farm must be on the west side of the mountains.

[Monsieur Vilak]

Thank you Ozu.

I guess this is this page from the Bible you are talking?

[Ozu]

Thank you Ozu.

I guess this is this page from the Bible you are talking?

Yes exactly. On the far right, in vertical, it is written 八ヶ岳, Yatsugatake Mountains. This is also explained in Ryo Hirokawa's very informative site.

Oui ce site est une mine avec toutes les informations issues des synopsis

This is the link for the old record published by EPOCH, entitled "Kabuto Koji and Duke Fleed".



Obviously it's in Japanese, but If you listen, the first line of the story goes: "This is the Institute for Space Science at the feet of the Yatsugatake Mountains, in Shishuu".

Again, a clear reference to Shinshuu 信州, the old name for Nagano prefecture.

[Monsieur Vilak]

Oh thank you!!!
