Where is Persona 4: The Animation set?
Japanese anime television series
Persona 4: The Animation (2011): Wikidata records no setting for it, and 1 real place for Persona 4, the work it adapts, in Japan. A statement about the book, not about the anime, and an adaptation is free to move its story. It is here because it is sourced and checkable, and it says so on every line.
Part of the Persona franchise
Where its source is set
Wikidata records no setting for this anime. Every place below is where its source, Persona 4, is recorded as set. That is a statement about the book, not about the anime, and an adaptation is free to move its story somewhere else entirely. It is listed because it is sourced and checkable, and labelled everywhere it appears because it is a step weaker than the rest of this atlas.
Drawn from these real places
Nothing was filmed at these and the story does not happen in them. They are the real places this anime’s setting was modelled on, named in its Japanese Wikipedia article. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, so it is listed apart from everything above and never counted as a filming location.
