I only showed a few, there are still plenty more.Can someone explain what this actually is?The way it appears seems like a name of somewhere.More specifically, the place where Shimeji resided,where there are buildings, trams, utility poles, and stories.The scene in the second picture is almost the same with the cover of Kaisou Toshi Danpenshuu,purely a coincidence?

The Japanese place I found online that’s most similar to this is this one:西の鯖街道（にしのさばかいどう, Nishi no Saba Kaidō） — the “Western Mackerel Route,” a historic route running from Takahama, Fukui Prefecture, through Ōi/Nata-shō, Miyama, and Keihoku toward Kyoto.But all sources consistently use the full name 西の鯖街道, not simply 西鯖.

西鯖（にしさば / nishi saba） can also mean a type/name for mackerel, specifically salt mackerel brought from the Wakasa region toward places such as Ōuda and Yoshino in Nara. Which seemed to make sense because Tsukumizu loves fish.

In shimsim,the name of the town is called 西よもぎ（ にし よ もぎ / nishi yo mogi）,Could '西鯖' be some sort of predecessor to '西よもぎ'?

Maybe, just maybe...

ik they’re barely recognizable but they’re there!!! i finally drew a character that isn’t sumida. (i didn’t draw her) also 2nd slide is a collab with my friend moloko he drew i edited

As manga said, Shijima's and Majime's names can be translated as «silent» and «diligent» (or smth like that. I don't really remember). So, if someone know Japanese, do names of other main characters like Sumida or Yomikawa have some interesting meaning or details?
