Osaka: A City of Reunions, Romance, and Thrilling Adventures in USJ and Harry Potter area

In the previous article, I used "Osaka Romance" to build my Osaka. There are neat and orderly basic elements such as "Umeda", "Shinsaibashi" and "Namba Garden", but there are also opportunities that vary depending on the person and time, such as "on the Ferris wheel" and "looking at Kobe".
  
For a long time, Osaka represented in my heart the "reunion" that this song tells.Especially when I read the tenth song of "Hundred People One Poetry" (this book collects one hundred Japanese songs over the past seven hundred years and is the most widely circulated collection of Japanese songs).
  

これやこの 行くも帰るも bie れては

知るも知らぬも 荂倮关

The general idea of ​​this waka is "This is what happened to the people who went to the Eastern Kingdom and the people who returned to the capital in the rumors, the people they knew and the people they didn't know, the people who parted and reunited again (it has the name of meeting again) (of) Fengsaka Pass".
I prefer a translated version circulated on the Internet - There is an old saying in life that we meet again when we leave, and we always pass through Ban Pass when we Travel and return.

Fengbanguan is the ancient name of Osaka. It turns out that Osaka has been a place of reunion since ancient times. It is so beautiful.
What’s even more coincidental is that last spring, I had a couple I really wanted to “remarry”, and they actually broke the ice and took a photo together in Osaka. After that, I became even more convinced that Osaka is a city where lovers reunite.

So, if you really want to "reunite" with someone, you might as well ask them to go to Osaka together. Osaka will bring you this luck and magic. It doesn't matter even if you can't fall in love again, you can still go to Yodogawa, where a new marriage is flowing. Who will you meet again today in this, far, far away, west city, and your relationship will become an elegant story.
If "Osaka Romance" is my "reunion with Osaka", then "Osaka LOVER" tells my favorite love fairy tale. In the winter of 1991, "Tokyo Love Story" was broadcast on Fuji TV After the premiere, Akana Rika became a dream heroine throughout Asia. In the past twenty years, classic images like her have been "reproduced" in many works.
"Osaka LOVER" tells a particularly cute love story, the inner monologue when a Tokyo girl falls in love with an Osaka boy and comes to his city. In my heart, this Tokyo girl is also "Ana Rika".

"I finally caught up, I can be at your place before twelve o'clock"

Is the text message too short? Although I am a bit indifferent

I have taken the Shinkansen from Tokyo three times in total.
The only impression I had the first time was that I arrived at Kyoto Station. I have been to that Kyoto Station several times since, so my memory is still fresh. Kyoto Station, Hanamikoji, Kamogawa and Isetan Department Store next to it constitute my "Proust moment".
The second time was with my sister in the summer of 2017. I remember that I was scolded by my sister because I kept looking down at my iPad on the road. She asked me to get out of my own world quickly and look at the outside scenery more, but When I was passing by Mount Fuji, I secretly plugged in my headphones and listened to "Under Mount Fuji." Outside the window, the snow on the top of Mount Fuji never melted all year round. In the song, I was wandering along the snowy road.

The third time was in October 2019 with my aunt. This time the destination was Shin-Osaka, and the train was extremely empty. , the two of us occupied a row and shared the waffles, toast and grapes bought in Ginza.

"When I see you coming to pick me up at Shin-Osaka Station, you always wear that sweatshirt. Are we going to go home directly today too?"

"The same is true today in Midosuji. There is only one-way traffic. Do you want to buy something to drink before going home?"

Shin-Osaka Station is also in Midosuji. Online, there are two ways I have gone to Osaka. If I enter from Kansai Airport, I take the airport JR to Namba Station on the Midosuji Line. If I take the Shinkansen from Tokyo, I take the Shin-Osaka Station on the Midosuji Line. .
I breathed a sigh of relief when I arrived at Shin-Osaka Station. The next step was to take the Midosuji Line to Shinsaibashi Station. I was very happy and relaxed when I walked on the wide road of Shinsaibashi carrying my suitcase. Because the October Trip with my eldest aunt was the first time that I had to be responsible for everything during the whole trip, and Tokyo is so big, so big that as a movie about Tokyo said, "If we are separated, we may never see each other again in our lifetime." I was particularly afraid that I would take my eldest aunt on the wrong road, but I felt a very familiar feeling when I arrived in Osaka. Compared with Tokyo's transportation, which extends in all directions, Osaka's "one-way" and simple Midosuji Line.
  

"Even the Tokyo Tower can't compare to the Tsutenkaku Tower I saw with you~"

What are you doing? Laugh like this! This is my once-in-a-lifetime confession! "

I really like this confession from a Tokyo girl. The "Tongtenkaku Tower" in the confession is one of the three top climbing spots in Osaka that I mentioned in the previous article.
I am with my sister. I have been to Tsutenkaku Tower once. To be honest, Tsutenkaku Tower is not very suitable for us except taking pictures, because the shops on the street sell fried food, and my sister hates them. But something happened at Tsutenkaku Tower, a very famous place for taking pictures. A very cute thing is that when I'm taking pictures During the photo, a little girl came into the mirror and faced my sister's camera, as shown below. Your little girl from Kansai is so cute.

This place is really great for taking photos. The overall setting makes me think When I visited another ancient name for Osaka, "Naniwa", I looked through some of the photos I took in this place in the past few years. When I recalled this cute little girl from Kansai, I suddenly felt that "the past of Naniwa is like a dream within a dream." .

"I've been here several times, but you never said, 'Do you want to move in together?' Although I look happy, I feel really lonely inside. ”

“I have already realized that I want to be called ‘Osaka Obasan’. I want to be separated from my family and live here with you. ”

"Although I have been here several times, the reason why I will come again is because you are here." Although I look happy, it's because you are here. No matter how much we quarrel, I still only think of you. "

"Just say, 'Come and live together', ah ah~ It's like I'm forcing you. It seems like Osaka is very close but very far away. Osaka, the city everyone loves but hates! ”

It’s so cute, so cute. The distance from Tokyo to Osaka is 550 kilometers. It’s an hour’s flight and an afternoon’s Shinkansen ride. It’s also called Osaka “Obasan” because of my love. "It's worth it. It's because of you that Osaka has become both cute and annoying. It's "Although I've been here several times, I will come again because you are here." It's not as beautiful and tall as the Tokyo Tower. The Tsutenkaku Tower you are watching together is the bravery of thousands of troops charging forward "No matter what harm I experience on the road, let me decide whether I love you or not"
  
Tokyo is a dream island for young people, but Osaka is where your lover is. Where, Tokyo girls and Kansai boys want to live happily in Osaka.
One of my favorite stages of "Osaka LOVER", I spent my sad days watching such a sweet stage.

At this point, the story in the song "Osaka LOVER" is over, but Osaka is Isn't there a very famous scenic spot that I haven't mentioned yet? Don't worry, the song "Osaka LOVER" is very related to this place.
It is USJ-Universal Studios Osaka.
In the beginning, I went to USJ almost every time I went to Osaka. I even planned my own route. I rushed to the Harry Potter park as soon as I entered the park. The queue for Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey was the worst. It's long, so go early to avoid long lines. Every time I do this project, I find it funny to see Hermione saying "Thank you" to me in Japanese at the end - "Ariado". After we finished, I bought a cup of butter beer. It was really delicious. When my mother and I went there, my mother said she didn’t want it. When we walked out of the park, she took a sip of mine and suddenly asked me when I would be back. Buy another drink in the Harry Potter area, but unfortunately I usually don’t go back after leaving the Harry Potter area.
  
There are two more must-rides, the Minion Naughty Farce Ride and Spider-Man’s Horrifying Adventures. You can arrange them one after another according to the length of the queues on both sides. Once you are done with these, you can go shopping, eat, take photos, and then wait for the parade. .

Except for the roller coaster, I dare not ride on it. I have tried all the other regular events. I can responsibly say that except for these three, they are all boring, or they need a little bit. Only with basic language skills can you understand.
Although I have been to USJ many times, I have only ridden one roller coaster. My sister thought I was too timid and pushed me up. But the reason I finally got on it was because the roller coaster was called "Hollywood Dream." I like this name. The Hollywood dream should indeed be a roller coaster with ups and downs, so I tried to ride it, but it wasn’t that scary.
On the days when I couldn’t go to Osaka, I learned that you can choose songs to listen to on Hollywood Dream. One of the songs is "Osaka LOVER". If I go there again, will I ride a roller coaster just to listen to this song? I'm also very curious. .
This is the whole story between me and "Osaka LOVER". If you go to Osaka, take these two songs with you to reunite, fall in love, and make happy memories.
