Osaka Guide Areas Parks Museums :: Japan Visitor Takarazuka is also the home of the 700-strong, all-female Takarazuka Review Company. The Osamu Tezuka Manga Museum in Takarazuka is a shrine to the “King of Manga.” The prolific Osamu Tezuka, who was born in Takarazuka, created Astro Boy (or Atomu in Japanese), Kimba the white lion, and much more in his career as an illustrator and manga artist. Osaka divides into two quite separate centers: Kita (north) Osaka- the main business district - around Osaka and Umeda Stations and Minami (south) Osaka- the city's entertainment, shopping and nightlife area - around Namba and Shinsaibashi Stations. www.soccerphile.com /japanvisitor/jt/osaka_attractions.html

ARCHIVES Once we reached the train station, we ate at an omeraisu place called �Tamago to Watashi,� meaning �the egg and me.� The simplest way to describe omeraisu would be as an omelet on rice where you can choose from various types of sauces to cover the dish. We went there by normal train, got there around nine in the morning, and walked a good while from the train station to finally get to Sendousen Gendou, a place that is famous for having 1001 statues of the Goddess Kannon from Buddhism. On the way to the house, located in Takarazuka about 20 mins from Osaka city, we stopped at a restaurant that worked liked a cafeteria where you select certain dishes already set out and take them to the register. www.orizuru.org /journal/archives.php?id=A2003051

COMMENTS After finally getting stuffed, it was about time for me to head back to Nagoya, so we walked to the train station and I parted from my friend to later meet him again in Nagoya after my trip to China. Since I had to go back to Nagoya to get ready to go to China the next day, it was actually, more of a half day, and it was mostly spent in Osaka and not Takarazuka. This time, since we didn�t take the bikes, it took us quite a while to reach the station, probably about 45 mins. www.orizuru.org /journal/comments.php?id=72_0_1_0_C

日記 / ni.k.ki Takarazuka boys move like Spike from Cowboy Bebop, dance like Fred Astaire, dress impeccably, are incurable romantics, and oh yes, they're often covered in feathers and glitter. Takarazuka performers, like Kabuki performers, either always play male roles or always play female roles, although they appear dressed as women in public (Kabuki onnagata - men who played women - used to always dress and act as women, although I'm not sure that's still the case). Takarazuka comes from the same tradition and was formed along the same line of thought. www.sundark.com /nikki/archives/cat_oaa.html

Travelocity.com: Destination Guides: Tokyo The vicinity east of Ebisu Station, once a sleepy residential and low-key shopping district, has recently blossomed into a small but thriving nightlife mecca popular with expats who find Roppongi too crass or commercial. Separating eastern and western Shinjuku is Shinjuku Station, the nation's busiest commuter station, located on the western end of the Yamanote Line loop. Eastern Shinjuku is known for its shopping, particularly the huge Takashimaya Times Square complex, and for its nightlife, especially in Kabuki-cho, one of Japan's most famous-and naughtiest-amusement centers, and in Shinjuku 2-chome, Tokyo's premier gay nightlife district. aolsvc.travelocity-dest.aol.com /DestGuides/0,1840,AOLSVC27313115277,00.html

Jonathon Delacour: October 2003 Archives They picked me up at Springwood station around 11am and, a couple of hours later, three adults and three children were eating lunch, having already booked for the 2:30pm tour of the Orient Cave. This is not a great example of what it can do—especially compared to the clarity of these Japan Railways photos of the station signs at Usa—but I loved shooting stills with the video camera and took a lot of lovely pictures on that trip. We pulled into Usa just long enough for me to take a quick snap of the station sign, which displayed the name in hiragana ( うさ) and Chinese characters ( 宇佐), as well as the names of the previous stop, Nishiyashiki ( にしやしき) and next stop, Buzen-nagasu ( ぶぜんながす). weblog.delacour.net /archives/2003_10.html
