Hyōgo Prefecture
prefecture of Japan
Japan · 34.6912, 135.1831
Hyōgo Prefecture is on this map as a whole region rather than as a place, because Wikidata records 1 manga as set here and nothing finer. The dot sits at its centre, which is not where anything happens: it stands in for the whole area. Nothing is claimed to have been filmed at this point, and no film or series is placed this way anywhere on the atlas.
24 productions were filmed at 33 places inside Hyōgo Prefecture rather than at Hyōgo Prefecture itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.
Movies and TV series filmed in Hyōgo Prefecture
24 productions shot at 33 places inside Hyōgo Prefecture, each named beside it. No statement names Hyōgo Prefecture itself, so everything here is recorded against somewhere inside it.

Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Hyōgo Prefecture, 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.
