Dōtonbori is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia article of 1 production — 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.

“However, the Osaka authorities were more receptive towards film permits so the similarly futuristic neon-infused Dōtonbori in Namba was chosen as the principal filming location in Japan.”

Set here, per Dōtonbori’s own Wikipedia article

Works this page’s own Wikipedia article places here. Nothing was filmed — each of these is drawn or rendered — and as above, no pin and no download entry.

Drawn from this place

Video games whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Dōtonbori as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
