Lucky Star
Most of the Lucky Star locations are located in Hokkaido, Saitama-ken, and Kyoto-fu.
This session was intended for episode 07 (last location hunt was up to episode 06) to episode 22 (broadcast on 02 Sep,
3 days before my trip) only, with the main focus on those live action ED and the school field trip.
Luckily I was also able to take some photos of locations which would appear in latter episodes (episode 23 & 24).
