Trivia

 * Even though they are animated from the same rooftop of Katsura Mansion, the scene in the opening and the scene in the movie have the faraway skyscrapers (like the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and the NTT Docomo Yoyogi Building) in different angles. The scene in the movie is reproduced more authentically, while the opening scene is apparently captured from somewhere deviated 23° from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. A likely candidate could be the Tomohisa Cross Comfort Tower.
