OTABiS - Anime Pilgrimage

OTABiS is a map app for anime pilgrimage ("seichi junrei") — visiting the real places that appear in anime. It covers 14,000+ locations across Japan, organized by work, in English, Japanese and Simplified Chinese.

FIND LOCATIONS

• Episode references and data sources shown for each spot
• Optional second layer for sightseeing spots and permanent shops

CHECK IN ON SITE

• On-site check-in within 100 m, three check-in methods
• Compare mode: overlay the reference image on the viewfinder to recreate the shot

PLAN A TRIP

• Day-by-day itineraries with collaborative editing

CIRCLES

• Build a private shared map with friends; join by invite code or QR
