Kamakura High School is located in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan 20 minutes
Kamakura High School is located in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. It is the prototype of Lingnan High School in "Slam Dunk"; the intersection not far from the station is the location for the classic scene of Sakuragi Hanamichi greeting Akagi Haruko. Standing at the intersection, amid the jingling of bells, you can also feel the passionate youth memories of Slam Dunk. Now past many years later, when walking here, everyone can't help but take photos, as if to commemorate their youthful years. I feel like what we are witnessing is not a memory. The sea, the campus, and the streets in the Slam Dunk scene are to everyone. The end is so important, because you can go to the place in your youth memory to seek verification, as if you feel the breath of youth again, and you can calmly have one more reason to talk to it.
