Where is K-On! set?

Japanese manga series

K-On! (2007): 1 real place Japanese Wikipedia files it under as its setting, in Japan. Wikidata records no setting for this manga at all, so this is a category rather than a statement, and it is labelled that way below. Where the manga takes place, not where it was made: a manga is drawn and filmed nowhere, so this is the only kind of location it has.

Places per Japanese Wikipedia: “滋賀県を舞台とした漫画作品” category

Japanese Wikipedia’s “滋賀県を舞台とした漫画作品” category lists 1 place. A category is an editor’s judgement rather than a sourced statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Drawn from these real places

Nothing was filmed at these and the story does not happen in them. They are the real places this manga’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.

Frequently asked questions

How many places is K-On! set in?

No place recorded on Wikidata, but 1 place from a Wikipedia setting category, labelled per Wikipedia.

Was K-On! filmed anywhere?

No. A manga is drawn and filmed nowhere, so the places on this page are where its story is set, from Wikidata's narrative location and from Wikipedia's setting categories.

Where does this information come from?

Narrative location statements on Wikidata, and the setting categories Wikipedia editors file the work under, which are labelled per Wikipedia. Nothing is guessed from the plot.
