I'm at it right now. Visited Alarcón yesterday (pic related) and now arrived at Cuenca, preparing proper reference shots.
Will bump with photos occasionally.

I don't visit muslim countries.

Well then you should know that in the south they're more catholic than the north because it's more rural down there.

Mate, I was there yesterday. Left this morning for Malaga.
Old town Cuenca was really great.
If you didn't see it today, there is a free abstract sound 'art' display in the hanging houses next to the bridge. The art is a waste of time but they have clean toilets.

Are you planning to upload your pictures somewhere? I´d love to take a look at then, will surely bring back memories.

Looking back at the blog, i didn´t put as much effort on it as i should have. I should have uploaded comparation pictures at least, And maybe some sort of map with the most remarcable locations, but i guess anons were happy enough.

It's also one of the only OP's and ED's I never skipped.

7.5 and 13 are the only OVA or am I missing them? I just want more.

Also, is the implication that the real Desert wolf was Kurehas dad or did I think too much into that?

>>146709433
Shit, I always forget that Catholics don't do baptism-by-belief.

>>146709747

Well, baptism is a little different with some "belief" allowances. For example, there's a "baptism by blood" cause for somebody who is unofficially catholic by normal baptism but wanted to be, but died before the ceremony. This is mainly attributed to children of catholic parents who die young.

But amazing grace has two issues with it. Skip to 2:00 for the direct verses without the guys backstory on how American Catholics are basically Protestants who don't know shit.

I heard a story from a family friend. When he was doing mandatory service, at some point some people came to his barracks and sounded a triangle. At that point he just went "laaaaaa", and those guys got him into the choir just based on that. And during winter, everyone was out in the cold clearing the roads of snow, only the choir was comfy inside and going "laaaaaa".

>>146710195
That pic is nice because it also shows the parts of old city that did NOT made it to the cut. Like, the XVII century entry doo of the Parador (the "fortress"), the cathedral (left of pic, the building with the towers and teh round window), or the plateau at the end of the cliffs (right of the square-ish building above the Parador), which was the "old castle" mentioned before (just a large area surrounded by vertical cliffs by all sides but a 50-meters wide entry point, where there was a simple wall with heavy doors and a square tower at either side - you can see them poking over the square-ish building).

Visited Cuenca last summer actually, didn't go to Alarcon because I don't speak spain for shit. Shame don't have any pictures I could share in my computer currently, but managed to hunt many locations that I don't usually see in the threads (maybe because some of them were pretty obvious). Pretty neat city even if it wasn't full of cute anime girls.

The old town and the area directly below it are. Just bare in mind that they're attached to a city.

>>146717101
I saw a lot of people living in the old town and it looked comfy as hell. Only problem I would have living there would be the amount of tourists and the lack of proper stores in the old part of the town though.

>>146718088
One landmark people often miss is the old ruined house that was swept away by the flood in an episode. The actual ruin of a house they used for inspiration was still next to the river when I was there two or three years ago (no photo, sadly).

>>146719934
I didn't know that. Is it on the side of the bridge or the other side of the town?

>>146718088
There's also the sad fact I'm not a local so I'd probably be far from living a comfy life among people who'd treat me as a strange outsider. And if for some reason I was actually a local the place probably wouldn't have the exoticism I attach to it currently.

IMPORTANT QUESTION: Where exactly is that pink tank?

>>146702303
For me, Cuenca is part of a longer cycling trip and I always sleep outside (/trv/-kun here), so basically I only spend money for food out of supermarkets. Also, as an Eurofag there was no need to fly to another continent. I am sleeping below the tree on the left you can see in >>146690984

>Where exactly is that pink tank?
We were considering trying to find that when we were there as well but had no idea where to start looking and eventually ran out of time. It'd be great to see though.

>>146722460
You won't find it since some years ago (2012-2013) it was sold to a scrap dealer.

>>146722897
It's just as well we didn't try to find it then. What a shame though.

The pink tank is gone then? it´s a shame. About the location where it used to be, from the parking on the top of the city you can see some TV-communication antennas on top of a small mountain, you need to take the road that exits Cuenca from that parking, and take a gravel road on the left to get to those antennas, you can locate the way there on Google maps

Off topic: It would be funny it the pink tank somehow inspired the Girls Und Panzer team back then, but guess we will never know.

>>146723772
>Off topic: It would be funny it the pink tank somehow inspired the Girls Und Panzer team back then, but guess we will never know.
Doubtful. Since Rabbit Team (the ones of the pink tank) seem to be the "movies references team", the most logical asumption is it being an "Operation Peticoat" refference.

>>146719925
In a way, we are lucky that SnW didn´t get much popularity. I am pretty sure that if thousands of people started getting into the abandoned building with the excuse of "OMG, ANIME HAPPENED HERE!", they would end up demolishing the building down, because it´s in really bad shape and someone would end up injuring itself.

I am sure anons that visit that place will be very conspicuous and enjoy the place while it lasts, as IMHO is one of the highlights of the SnW piligrimage.

>>146722215

Aren't pink tanks somewhat common? I've seen ones in Czechia, the Netherlands and I believe also in Norway (though that might have been some other abandoned vehicle, it's been too long) so far.

>>146669047
Any year now.

>>146724636
No, but I happened to be right in time for the Water and Wine Festival ("noche de la zurra") in Requena. Didn't know about it before, but some locals who just talked to me in front of the supermarket told me it would happen that day and invited me in.
I think the SnW staff mixed this festival with the Tomatina, as there are people on the balconies throwing water at you. And the crowd around you might soak you in wine if you aren't paying attention.
Anyway, that was one of the best days I ever had and if not for SnW it would've never happened. Guess that was the perfect pilgrimage.

Are there GPS coordinates for the specific locations or something? Or simply marks on a map?

>>146725372
I actually thought about making a map with marks linking to (comparison) screenshots. Unless there already is one and I missed it?
Well, whenever I get around to actually do this I'll post results here. Won't happen the next few days or even weeks, but surely before next year's pilgrimage season.

To be fair it looks like the entire village is crumbling. When you walk in the valley you can hear rocks crumbling and buildings set off-limits as parts of them have been torn apart. It's like the city itself is hanging over the verge of death and no one really cares.

A trip to Cuenca is my first goal to save up for when I finish uni and start working.
But they're not that good at English, right? I'll probably need to brush up on some conversational Spanish, wouldn't I?

>>146726301
I'm EOP and the people are really polite if you try to communicate with them, meaning I could say two phrases and ask for the toilet. That's really enough, and unless you are planning to have some complicated in-depth conversations then you probably won't have a problem.

It should be around
40°04'51.7"N 2°07'28.9"W

There's a wall with an open gate above the 2 abandoned houses on the town-side of the valley with the bridge. If you get on the wall, pass beneath the rock on the left (facing towards the valley) and then cross this dodgy ledge you can get there.

>>146722215
Since you are around the zone, I'd recommend visiting Albarracín, a town in Teruel. The only problem is that getting there is a bit tricky (it's in the mountains and in a province that's kind of forgotten) even though it's fairly near Cuenca.

>>146726993
Even with coordinates and reference photo, thanks! Will check it out.

>>146727709
Looks really nice, but quite hard to reach with a bicycle. Would take me above 1500m and it's the opposite direction of where I want to go...
So I'll pass on that. Really appreciating the recommendation though. Maybe another anon reading this will go there one day...

>>146728455

Maintain that house to the last man and store thousands of pictures of this place before it crumbles to dust and every SnW reference vanishes.

It's not crumbling, anon, the whole historical centre undergoes maintenance every couple years, as do most historical buildings and touristic attractions in the country. I must say I much prefer Toledo or Avila over Cuenca, all being around the centre of the peninsula.

This year I visited Ronda and Arcos; they both are pretty comfy too, being built on top on some cliffs. The former is particularly breathtaking.

>>146729262
First to Madrid (obligatory capital city), then Consuegra and down to Andalusia, where there's a lot I want to see. Cave villages (Gorafe, Guadix...), that one desert with the western movie set, the white villages around Ronda, Gibraltar and some other stuff. Feel free to drop some more recommendations if you know the area.
After that: Morocco...

What's up with the ghosts?

>>146730339
See >>146730319. I suppose I might add Segovia, and down south don't forget to check Seville, Cadiz (if you're up for the trip), Cordoba and Granada (La Alhambra is a must see). Madrid is great, desu.

Anime fans who go on these 'pilgrimages' tend to be quite respectful actually. But increased footfall and accelerated erosive activity would be a concern.

>>146738358
Not as far as I know. When we went in July we had to pay some Spanish guy to drive us there having previously asked the receptionist at the hotel if there were any other options.

It's about an hour to drive there but then you have to factor in the waiting around that the driver would have to do as you look for things, it's not as if the tiny town has any transport services of its own. We could only afford it because there were enough of us to split the cost but you might have more options if you're not in a group.

It was a state-sponsored trip through most of the West euro countries with other Ameriburgers. Sometimes the speakers on the bus were used to play music so I felt compelled at the opportunity to share "fitting" music. After we'd entered France and were on the way to Paris I decided to put on Servante de Feu; that turned out alright so I also mentioned where it was from and that's that.

Before that I'd insisted on playing King Crimson's The Night Watch before we left the Netherlands, The Rain Song on the way to France, and, some time after Paris, Hikari no Senritsu and Torikago no Yume (less successfully).

I was the happiest I'd been in my life during the whole experience, but at present I cringe physically whenever my time there comes to mind.

During the annual stream this year and my rewatch (I fell asleep halfway through the stream) it really hit me how much this anime's themes resonated with me and how much it actually taught me about life.

>Even if everything around you seems terrible, you can make your own happiness

or

>If the situation isn't one you desire, proactively step up to influence the best possible ending for all parties involved

Of course, the wotos already had the power (spider tank) to revolt and try to stop the conflict, but it would have taken a hell of a lot of courage to revolt against your own fucking commander and stand up for what you believe in.

This might sound kind of lame, since it's just a cartoon after all, but it really makes me think about how much anime have influenced me into becoming who I am today.

You are definitely (not) alone.
During this year's rewatch I also remember finding another huebro while talking about Amazing Grace and how here it's a melody more common on masses and not so much on funerals. (m-maybe that was you?)
I'm a sucker for all these stories with post-medieval/contemporary settings. Been in love with S&W for ages and the same goes for Dantalian no Shoka and Sora no Woto.
Guess there aren't many of us around since these shows usually don't appeal to normalfags, but there are some BRs with good taste out there.

>>146763571
She blows real good, if you catch my drift.

>>146763934
It's not ok though.
At least when you nuke something you know how much heavier stuff you're going to release, you know how to model the wind based on the target you hit. It's rather predictable the amount of killing you're going to do.
Releasing smallpox in Heathrow? Not so much.

>>146763883
why is bioweapons bad anyway

>>146764413

In a Total War scenario like WW2 it is. Hence nukes, bombing dresden, etc.

If a country was in a serious war with the USA, releasing smallpox in hearthrow is cruel, but you do it anyways.

Given SnW is in post-apocalypse-ish AND in a heavy war, 100% fuck them up by any means necessary. Hence the last episode before trumpet playing.

I don't disagree with you, but standard shelling made parts of france uninhabitable to this day, from WWI

>>146764413
All the engineering progress of a war are both unquestionably helpful for the development of our science and incredibly inhuman against our own kind. Creating degrees of "this is ok but this isn't" is just fooling yourself.
Something will always look worse or better depending on your point of view. You could even say WWI was worse than WWII, totally the opposite of what the body count says, using an argument that killing was way more gruesome back then.
Biowarfare cannot be controlled? Well, nuclear weapons have an unmatchable permanent moral and environmental effect.

>>146764563
>It damage the environment

If you're in a war, and the life of your country could cease to exist tomorrow....

fuck every environment, every long term effect, everything involving tomorrow, because it won't matter if you lose.

Fix it as the victors later

Most bioweapon cause irreversible damage to the environment.

Losing a war doesn't mean your country will just simply vanish, it's doesn't work like that. You will suffer a lot of economic disadvantage, but you will move on.

The environment doesn't matter. If the enemy doesn't care about the environment and you do, you lose.

>Losing a war doesn't mean your country will just simply vanish, it's doesn't work like that. You will suffer a lot of economic disadvantage, but you will move on.
History proves otherwise. Many countries vanished. And many peoples were bred out of existence due to the occupation.

Unless you believe every human is equal in every way, and therefore the replacement of your people by another doesn't matter, in a scenario where extinction is possible, its better to turn the enemy to glass

>>146764703

I bet you advocate for open borders too.

That was like a few thousands years ago. The modern world doesn't work that way.

If wars only had economical and political after effects, we would call them brexit.

>>146764787
>That was like a few thousands years ago. The modern world doesn't work that way.

But it could. So when the possibility arises, you respond accordingly.

Naturally, if both countries acted like USSR and USA, with the M.A.D. mindset, you war normally. Chivalry in war still exists, but as soon as one side throws it away, the other NEEDS to do so.

Its a matter of principle. Even if it never happens again, a country must be willing to go all the way if necessary.

Ah fuck, I remember reading this. This book probably is the reason I like traps so much.

I never actually finished the series, I stopped after finishing the 2nd book, and waited for the third, but forgot about picking it up.

I remember lending the first and second books to some bitch, and she never returned them.

I was just starting to watch a show to start clearing my backlog and now with this thread a series will have to wait because i'm re watching this anime in the next few days.
Thanks.

She didn't engineer bioweapons, she simply studied an existing plant, the equipment within, and brought back the heartier/most crude viruses into the military arsenal.

It was probably just military grade anthrax anyway.

Agent orange, the thing you speak of, is a chemical weapon derived from a plant growth accelerant.

It's a carcinogen, but nothing like bioweapons or anti personal chemical weapons.

(4/4) looking back where I came from. At this point I turned back, because it got even more narrow and judging from the plant growth there hasn't been anyone there in quite some time.

>"If a war doesn't start while I live, I've lived for nothing". It's like the writers had this strange insight.

There's an excellent book I'd recommend called 'The Tartar Steppe' - the whole premise is basically what you described. A lonely soldier gets posted to a remote border post and whiles away the decades just hoping and waiting...

It was a very good read, very bittersweet, and touched upon many themes such as isolation, raison d'etre, and camaraderie.

Has anyone compiled a tour guide map of places used as background art?

Might be useful for those wanting to visit the town.
