As I know that many information are hard to access for the foreigner fans of HIDEKI NII-san and because I saw you are quite interested to find more places where he actually spend part of his life, here it is, I offer you another access point/gate toward HIDE. Before we start another journey, I ask you again to be cautious and discrete, Japanese people are very easy to get offended, again I say something it might be normal for us it could/will/is very much unappropriated for them, so please observe discrete the site without interact with people too much, you could ask people there about HIDEKI NII-san and they might look at you awkward, however instead of being rude to you they'll reply with "I don't speak English, sorry" this is their way to say..."stay away" or "not ready to talk about..." please do not be insistent, however if someone will know what you're talking about and is/was fan himself than you'll get lucky and be shown around...you will not find within the indoors anything reminding of him tough...people tend to go on for sake of the future, the only things reminding of HIDEKI NII-san in Yokosuka are the posters from the corner supermart's window I showed you at the train station exit and the plushies from the street window of HIDEKI NII-san's parents home...don't be sad tough :) ! There is plenty for you to see and grow memories with. Let us return to same point we started the previous post...

Here we are again in front of Yokosuka Chuo train station .

As you get out, please use the same right side to exit in the street with the elevator or using the stairs. By now you should pass front the posters announcing HIDEKI NII-san's 50th anniversary from the corner mart
...well pass it :) and walk that street straight ahead,
you will soon see from far the spiral Radio Tower , and in your left side same store with Manga adds from the intersection.
As you look toward your right side standing in the intersection you will remember maybe the road toward HIDEKI's parents home and Tado Es Elementary as I showed you in previous post,
 anyways our aim for now is reaching to Tokiwa Jr High School so you will need to walk more maybe 15-20 minutes...
come on, don't be lazy!!! We Are X, YES WE CAN walk even few miles...trust me you'll enjoy the scenery !
 As I was saying, you're in the intersection right now, look toward the  Radio Tower and proceed ahead 

Walk this road in straight ahead direction till the very end until soon you will reach in another intersection, which will look like this...
Be happy , you are closer that you can imagine, from this crossroad is about 5-10 minutes walking till you will reach your destination !
after crossing the intersection keep the road straight ahead again, you will soon find in your right side a building with blue verandas, if you reach there you are in the right direction
in about 2 min walking you will find in your left side a weird building with front facade inclined toward inside. It will be in your left side, use that as landmark too
as you stand in the street with the weird building in your left side you can now see the green trees ahead so you must proceed toward there.
Now you reached another crossroads point, good job ! Look in front and will see some yellow barele with chess board white/red pattern delimiting the road in front of you. This time you need to turn left here...attention so far you've been walking straight from the train station till here now it will be first and the only time when you need to change direction !
As you turn left , just from the beginning of the street you can see the Junior High. Take a breath and brace yourself, if you had patience following me so far than walk with me few more minutes X !
Keep walking till the end of the road, you've made it ! Yaayyyyy , congratulations !! See I told you you can do it !


  You are now standing at the front entrance of Tokiwa Jr High School...hold back your tears, HIDE NII-san would be proud you came from so far away and you made it till here. Let me give you a big hug, and invite you to search for a music store where you might still find his albums on sale, and few of his guitars obviously...I am not sure I can find it tough...but I will do my best for you! Cheers and thank you for caring to return here to read posts about NII-san, I am so grateful to all 11 000 visitors who passed by to find out MORE about HIDEKI NII-san, the one Matsumoto WE DO LOVE...
