Official site

Chūō is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 2 productions, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.

13 productions were filmed at 14 places inside Chūō rather than at Chūō itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“Filming locations were in Tokyo (Adachi, Chūō, Taitō and Chiyoda), Onomichi, Atami and Osaka.”

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Chūō as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies filmed elsewhere in Chūō

13 productions shot at 14 places inside Chūō, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Chūō itself.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Chūō, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
