London’s newly won position on the K-ON! “seichi” pilgrimage circuit appears to be well in hand – fans of the K-ON! movie are already hunting through its frigid and grimy recesses to find the various locations fictionally graced by their moeblob icons.
This otaku’s pilgrimage includes such fascinating essentials as “the side of their hotel,” “Mio’s bus stop” and of course “Ricchan’s gravestone”:
The rise of the anime pilgrimage package tour seems only to be a matter of time.

That's hardcore
This is just the beginning.
this is just a megalo catchphrase. nothing to see here.
#17 OMG A HUGE ROCK!
That's the Rosetta Stone...
..the one that the Occult Club duo lend them for the Romeo and Juliet play..
lol fail
I see what you did there, Kaiba.
kill it with fire
exactly - WHY oh fucking gawd WHY??!!
did it have to be Ritsu? - It should of been Azusa. I know it was rascism, he didn't want to use a black hair liek Mio or Azusa.
No wonder he covered his face!!
Uber rages much... :P
At least they actually going places.
Beats the hell out of most of the otaku I know.
(Japanese) Otaku can travel the whole world just because of their passion for anime and/or trains.
That's why they made the term "hikikomori", otaku totally losts its "at home" original meaning.
This is actually pretty good to the place. I remember when the Spanish city where Sora no Woto was based on received tons o japanese tourists. The mayor and the hotels were pretty happy.
The mayor was happy?
I can't wait for Boris Johnson to cosplay as Azu-nyan in order to encourage tourism
Can't wait till he cosplays the Olympic torch so we can light him on fire.
LMAOXD, I swear if he does that, I'll send a letter to his place.
Dude thar would be scary. Maybe Ken liverstone will cosplay as Yui.
Except the author of the story described London as Grimmy,...
Hell the city is on a swamp, of course its going to be slimey and grimmy - The founding warlords that picked the spot were nuts
I loled at Ritsu on the convyer belt XD
Funny thing I can somehow also imagine her doing that in the anime.
You don't need a wellspring of knowledge to know that XD
Where can I get a Mugi plushie that big? :D
Pic 4: Wheeeeee!
I want that ricchan plushie!
It must be perplexing to the locals, people getting so worked up about such pedestrian places.
Note: the previous remark doesn't apply to the Rosetta Stone (a replica of which featured in season 2, episode 19) because it's awesome.
I always wanted to visit the city that inspired Onegai Teacher / Twins ...
Old_Nash
so uh, did he get mugged?
I lived really close to Camden Lock for a year last decade. It's a fun area.
Heidi of the Alps helped tourism in Switzerland when it brought thousands of Japanese tourists(old people and families)...
K-ON!
It feels weird to see the area you live in on here :/
The only thing I'm saying is "I know that" or " I know where that is..."
Quicky shoop of first image. http://oi44.tinypic.com/28cm2pd.jpg
they are the unofficial mascots of 2012 Olympics. What a burden..
YES!!!
Yes, I was waiting for this to happen.
Hello K-ON Otaku! Hope you enjoyed your visit.
Pilgrims traveling in London?
I guess Chaucer is going to have to have an updated Tales
Ritsu fan!~
FYI the place in pic 2 is Camden Lock Market.
Most of it was looted and burned in the riots late last year.
Lets be honest, London is a shit hole. Trust me, I live there!
So true. And they had to visit Whitechapel of all places, it ain't got shit there.
I SEE SOME AIR CANADA IN THERE.
So many places this site makes me want to visit. D:
I already did my pilgrim when I saw the location get posted on Sankaku
Looks like a nice place to visit, you know, considering it's winter and winter weather sucks.
London's tourist industry must be doing pretty well right now. Or so I would assume.
Hey you, I'm Bu-Chou
I stayed in that Ibis 2 months ago without knowing D:
Lol some of these random hate comments are out of the blue...
As a Brit who frequents London, believe me it's not strange for people to be excitedly taking photos of random things. London is full of tourists, and just about every area is famous for something, or has appeared in some film or another.
I haven't seen the movie yet, but does it portray Camden Lock as an alternate fashion hub? (Full of punks, goths, cyberpunks, EGL, etc)
I just wanted a few pics with Londeners' reactions XD
I wonder how long before they work out there is a web camera for the Abbey Road crossing..
http://www.abbeyroad.com/crossing
Oh imagine what they'll do now.
OMG, dirty foreigner invading my homeland. Go home you babarian-asien!
The one who sees the irony can have it.
All these pictures show what a shit hole our country is lol.
Excluding the typical British weather evident in most of these pics, London does look "cleaner" than much of NY.
you sure? well london doesnt have bins, the floor is the bin/trashcan and if you go to the parks be prepared to be robbed either by a kid, a pidgeon, or a squirrel.
Never been to a real shit hole?
Anyway, the countryside is still really nice.
