Bicycle Parking Lot
In *The Tatami Galaxy*, the protagonist 'I' commutes daily between his apartment and university, and this bicycle parking lot is where he parks his red bike. The camera often lingers here, accompanied by his inner monologue, where he meets Ozu or other classmates, or ponders infinite possibilities. The lot is filled with neatly parked bicycles and slightly worn railings, with low houses and utility poles in the background, creating an ordinary yet slightly gloomy atmosphere of student life in Kyoto.
