Zhenlin Gate in Chinatown
In *Welcome to the N.H.K.*, episode 8, Tatsuhiro Satou and Misaki Nakahara arrive at a Chinese-style pai-fang in broad daylight. The gate features three Chinese characters on its top and two stone lions at the sides. Misaki wears a red cheongsam, while Satou sports a t-shirt with “N.H.K.” printed on it. Misaki suggests entering Chinatown, and Satou feels awkward when passersby mistake him for Chinese. The background shows a clear blue sky and a bustling street.

Visit notes
- 此门是横滨中华街的东门,建于1952年,门楣上“善邻门”意为“与邻居和睦相处”。
- 佐藤身穿的“N.H.K.”T恤在本集中多次出现,是岬为了强化“计划”印象而准备的。
