🖇️: Read the full doc here!!!

I created this to share more of my love for haikyuu and show off how Furudate-sensei represented Brazilian culture so beautifully along with Shoyo’s growth. I want more fans around the world to fall in love with our country & have a beautiful experience here, just like Shoyo ☺️🫶

1. Christ the Redeemer

📍 Estação Cosme Velho - Rua Cosme Velho, 513

This adress is to go by train. You can access the Trem do Corcovado website to buy your ticket or get it at the station itself, or the Paineiras Corcovado website to go by van :))

2. Aterro e Praia do Flamengo

📍 Praia do Flamengo - Flamengo, Rio de Janeiro - RJ, 22210-065

Posto 3 - (the beaches are always divided into sections called 'Postos')

It's where Shoyo and Oikawa met when Shoyo was homesick, and it's also where he meditates every morning.

3. Rua Senhor dos Passos, Centro (Saara)

📍 Rua Sr. dos Passos, 42 - Centro, Rio de Janeiro - RJ, 20061-013

It's an open-air shopping complex where Shoyo gets lost making deliveries. If you're looking for souvenirs for your trip, this is the best and cheapest place to buy them

4. Praia de Ipanema (Morro Dois Irmãos)

📍 Av. Vieira Souto - Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro - RJ, 22420-002

Posto 8

This iconic art of Ninja Shoyo has the Morro Dois Irmãos in the background, which boasts spectacular views from Ipanema and Leblon beaches.

5. Aeroporto Internacional Tom Jobim (Galeão)

📍 Avenida Vinte de Janeiro, Bairro Galeão - Ilha do Governador

If you're coming from another country, you'll land at Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport, where Shoyo arrived and departed, in front of a gift shop :))

6. Bar do Belmonte

📍 Av. Mem de Sá, 82 - Lapa, 20230-152

Belmonte is a large chain of restaurants and bars that has become famous for its petiscos (snacks from bars in Brazil), and it's where Shoyo watched Kageyama play in the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics.

Here's my gift to true MetalGearSolid fans: a full scan of "Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes Survival Guide In The Darkness of Shadow Moses", published in Japan in 2004. It is one of the most unique videogame guidebooks ever created. See more of this post to find out why.

I love that I got my buddy @sleepdepr-fox into Resident Evil because now we can talk and make up all sorts of stupid things. This is an example.

Leon has a lot of random skills that regular cops would never have. So here's some ideas for guide books on his shelf:

Before becoming a famous comedian, actor, and writer, Steve Martin spent his teenage years working at Disneyland in the late 1950s and early 1960s. From age 10 to 18, he worked there after school, on weekends, and during summer breaks. He started by selling guidebooks at the entrance, just a few months after Disneyland opened in 1955, and later sold souvenir spinning lassos in Frontierland. “The ropes were hard to sell,” Martin recalled. “I had to wear a Western costume—cowboy shirt, hat. I even did a little of that in Three Amigos!”

Soon after, Martin landed a more exciting role at Merlin’s Magic Shop in Fantasyland, where his love for magic truly found a home. Performing sleight-of-hand tricks for guests helped him hone both his magical skills and comedic timing. Daily interaction with visitors allowed him to develop the showmanship and sense of humor that would later become essential to his entertainment career.

Martin also expanded his talents by learning to juggle and make balloon animals, refining his abilities as a performer. Disneyland provided him with a constant audience to practice in front of, shaping the entertainer he would become. He credited his time there as critical to developing the performance skills and comic timing that defined his career.

He learned juggling from Disneyland’s court jester, Christopher Fair, and was heavily influenced by Wally Boag, the headliner at the Golden Horseshoe. “Wally was the first live performer I ever saw. His style—fresh, sassy, and very clean—had a huge influence on my own comic timing,” Martin said.
