Everything here is dead -- a graveyard, you could call it. Old threads, dead characters, and all that good stuff, all located conveniently in one board (and a few sub-boards).

The neighborhoods of the town are found here.

A cafe, popular with those of ages that are eleven and up, that has three stories. The first story is the most popular for elders, due to the more traditional and respectable style of the setting as well as the waiters and waitresses. The second floor is most visited by young teenagers and girls, mostly females, because of the feminine surroundings. All around, there can be found products mostly classified as cutesy and adorable. The third floor is sound-proof. Loud music is blasted in this part of the cafe, often visited by different teenagers that enjoy dancing and socializing with everyone.

The front of the school area is the elementary school, a simple one-story building, for children in the range of kindergarten to fifth grade. To the back-left of it lies the middle school, two stories high, for those from sixth to eighth grade. To the back-right of Aichi Elementary, the high school, standing three stories high, is for students of grades nine through twelve.

The shopping center of the town, the Utsukushi Mall holds proud to its name. Surrounded by a low brick wall in the shape of a rather wide circle, two gates are located on the north and south exit. Inside of the walls, there's an intricate floral design in the cement, and two fountains on each side. Inside the mall, there are countless clothing stores and restaurants to eat and shop from.

Found in the center of the town, the large building has many different rooms. These rooms often contain portraits of those who the town believe as heroes, honorable, most wanted, etc. The mayor's office is found at the end of the long, wide hall that holds the other rooms, though the mayor is a rather busy person, and few who request favors of the mayor are often politely declined.

The large Hiroki Mountain rests beside the town, its rarely-used paths now covered with grass. The townspeople nearly never have time to take a hike up the mountain, despite the beautiful sights to be seen as one travels to the mountain's peak. The peak itself has a wondrous appearance, as well as a gorgeous overview of the entire town. Encounters with mountain creatures up the path is said to be rather common, though large ones, such as lions, have yet to be seen. At night, some people have often spoken of hearing noises from the direction of Hiroki Mountain -- as though a rapid transit is running somewhere around there, yet none have ever truly seen anything.

After one goes through the tunnel this is the area s/he reaches. During the day, while the sun is still up, the area is solid with grassy plains. When the wind blows, it always blows in one direction -- further across the fields. Few people have ever gone across the grassy fields, few people have returned, often declared missing. During nighttime, however, the peaceful area is filled with water, transforming into a large river. A boat carries spirits of all different kinds of forms to the other side.

As changes varied with the time for the grassy fields, changes vary with these food stalls, as well. During the day, despite its empty appearance, there's always an indefinite amount of food in the stalls, irresistible to humans who've only greed on their minds. But, once the sun goes down, the lamps are lit, and spirits begin to come out to eat and visit Yubaba's bathhouse.

Managed by the witch by the name of Yubaba, this is a highly ranked, state-of-the-art bathhouse, visited by spirits of all different variety in hopes to relax and dine on their cuisine and such. Humans have rarely made it past the bridge, and aren't welcomed by the staff, nor Yubaba.

A rather far way from Yubaba's bathhouse, past the garden is actually the pig pen. The pig pen is where humans, whose greediness has brought them the misfortune of becoming pigs themselves, are kept.

A train station for a train that only goes one way. It runs under the bridge that leads to the bathhouse, and has few passengers due to the difficulty of receiving train tickets. When it rains, water floods the area, and the train rides across the water to get to each station.

Three hundred miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; Sinister Valley is the very first stop. The moment one steps off of the station, s/he'll be greeted by the Guard spirits, who warn them of the many mysteries that occur in the village, which is surrounded by bushes of thorns with venomous tips. If one is still willing to move onward, the guards are the ones to decide who is allowed to pass through or not.

Five hundred miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; It was rumored that a devious spirit stole off with the idea of a board game based on Candyland -- but humans decided to edit and cut off a few of the rather important details of it. This rumor has yet to be confirmed after two hundred years, still going, though. The true Candyland, however, is filled with cannibalistic ginger men, man-eating cotton candy puffs, and an official army of gummy worms/bears. The castle bears great, unknown treasures -- never yet seen nor reached by anyone but the few residents of Candyland whom the malicious princess has accepted as her minions. Few can get to the village, much less the castle.

Six hundred miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; The Hiroki Subway is a destination for spirits who are unfortunate and have no wealth. The subway leads to Zetsubouteki City; the City of Beggars, it is often called. Few of these sullen spirits have hope for their futures.

Seven hundred and fifty miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; This island is filled with a deathly aura. The jungle strives with much effort to live, for its life has already depleted greatly. Poisonous gases accompany the ominous aura. The lake found in the center of the island, for which the island was named, has dark purple water; rather clear, but anything that touches this water dissolves instantly, with the exception of specially-made glass vials and the land that surrounds it. Spirits who are miserable enough for this death wish often jump into the Jisatsu Lake, disappearing forever.

Eight hundred miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; Spirits who have a change of heart often come to this inn rather than jumping in the Jisatsu Lake. Only fifty miles from the island, terrified spirits are reminded of their thoughtless wishes to die by the ear-splitting screams that come very often from the island -- screams from spirits that do go through with their plans to vanish. This tavern is run by dragon-taming spirits; dragon caves can be found all around the premises of the hotel, but rules strictly forbid anyone to bother the dragons that live there.

One thousand miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; Zeniba, Yubaba's twin sister, lives in a small house around this area. After Chihiro, the first human to ever escape the spirit world, had first visited her home, Zeniba had decided to take in No-Face, a wraith-like spirit, as a helper.

One thousand and two hundred miles from the train station near Yubaba's bathhouse; This shining city is the cleanest, bluest city in the Spirit World. Residents are often kind (but picky about filth). Purified water flows everywhere throughout Junsui Utopia; nothing is powerful enough to taint the water, unless the purified water is brought out of the city's premises. The water is often known to have refreshing and useful healing abilities, as well -- but only special priests and priestesses are aware of how to use the healing attributes of the clear liquid.

Often called the City of Beggars, weak and poor spirits come here when they've lost all hope for their futures. Zetsubouteki City has a gloomy atmosphere; smoke and pollution generated from factories changed the shade of the sky above the city to an orange-bronze color. The only way to get to this city is by the Hiroki Subway.

This magical stretch of land is only seen by those with a pure heart -- any evil intentions will hide the territory from the eyes and minds of the tainted, keeping the area invisible. Phoenix birds fly and nest in the many trees. Stealing an egg is impossible. Those who enter with a pure heart, but transform with greed and such are usually pecked and burned to death by the flame-breathing creatures. Its tears have the ability to heal a fatal wound, and its song can calm any rampaging beast.

This long, narrow line carved deep into the ground is filled with hot lava. The source of the lava has yet to be found, due to the fact that the trail goes straight into the Forbidden Tunnel. The burning river, on the other end, leads to a deadly pool-like crater of bubbling lava.

Another mystery that has yet to be solved, the Forbidden Tunnel is narrow, only wide enough for the Volcanic River to run through. When standing near the tunnel, yowls of unknown creatures seem to wail from the other side. The hole is too narrow, too low for anything to fly through. This tunnel leads to the insides of a humongous rock made of unbreakable material. None can break the rock -- none can pass the tunnel.
