20090125 Giveaway - Where is Kagami 2

Congrats to all gladiators who answered "Owakudani" [大湧谷] in the first giveaway round to win a lovely Mabinogi Nao by Orchid Seed.
The clue was "Niwatori" which means "Chicken" in Japanese - referring to the black eggs that extend your life by a few years when eaten. Owakudani is famous for the black eggs which mysteriously appear in the valley.
Folks who answered "Milky Way", "Earth", "Japan" or "Hakone" were not specific enough and do not qualify.
Folks who answered "Owakudani" without the kanji *do* qualify.
Surviving gladiators go on to the next round to answer the next question - "where is Kagami"?
Clue:-
"Uta"
"Sosogu"
"Boku no Kagami"
Rules:-
- Please be as specific as possible
- You *must* include the link to your previous correct answer by using the comment ID anchor like...
- Only gladiators who answered correctly from the previous round get to battle in the second round.
- Deadline is this time tomorrow-ish.
- You got one attempt.
- Arms installation is complete. Good Luck! Nao-chan is waiting for you - just look at her eyes!

This giveaway is brought to you by the good folks at HobbyLink Japan.

gah, im getting a headache from all this searching
The only articles i can find with the seaside are Ishigaki Jima, Kamakura, Enoshima and Okinawa. i think its safe to say it's NOT somewhere in lake Ashi due to large container ships in background..................
AAAARGH THE CLUES ARE USELESS TO ME

http://burugureibi.blogspot.com/
okay....
uta is song - sosogu is 'to pour/rain upon' - and my kagami is pretty obvious
........so you want to 'rain songs upon kagami'...
Hey Danny, is this photo and the one of her in Owakudani, apart of the same series/recent timeline? Or are they from a pool of Kagami related photos?

That's it.
After many hours of deliberation, i've come to 1 answer:
Sentosa beach, Singapore
It's got the concrete beach control 'things'(Butte thingys in the water), smog and container ships

I didn't go with Okinawa mainly because those pics were from 2006 lol, but its very likely Danny has been back. I just couldn't find anything in the last 5 months of news items about a trip there... so I ignored it.... lol

http://burugureibi.blogspot.com/
same here
Also spotted in the photo are container ships and smog in the far far background
Ishigaki Jima and Okinawa Jima just don't seem to have those 2 attributes
my second guess would be somewhere in Chiba-Ken (facing towards Yokohama, in relation to ships and smog) or could even be somewhere in the southern part of Odawara-chi
This is like looking for a needle in a stack of needles ^^;
http://www.stefkov.com/
I didn't notice the ships in the back. doh. I was searching beaches that had similar trees, sand and sky. I got the translations but couldn't link them to anything. Also found out Kagami means mirror, and boku had another meaning; predict, or something like that. Might have been a bad translator though :p.
I found out about Kagami mochi on my google travels. That didn't lead anywhere though.

This is quite tricky.
I bet it's the west side of Okinawa Island. The beach must be Manza beach because it's the most popular beach in Okinawa where famous cliff made of coral reef. It needs about one and a half hours to drive from Naha city.

http://lordofgundams.blogspot.com/
I'm going to say Sagami Bay (相模湾) in Hakone in the Kanagawa Prefecture. There's a river that flows down to the bay, a direct reference to sosogu which translates to pour into or to irrigate. Uta translates to song and boku no Kagami translates to Where's Kagami? (I hope this is right.)

Follow the leader! jk may be more like the path of least resistance since they have no clue where it is. can be seen when people are lost on the road. people tend to follow the person or car that is in front of them thinking 'maybe they know the way since they are moving forward'. may be also a insecurity of being lonesome in an unknown place.

Unemployed bummer
Yuigahama beach (由比ヶ浜海岸) near Kamakura, a city in Kanagawa Prefecture (神奈川県, Kanagawa-ken)
pretty much what Kevin Nyugen said about Sagami Bay (相模湾, Sagami-wan) since i saw a pic of what he referred to and it seems pretty close to the hints.
but if it has to be very beach-specific, it's pretty much a toss up between the Yuigahama, Zaimokuza (highly possible actually) and what i can't see much of of Inamuragasaki beach (good luck Meimi!).
then there's Enoshima, Hayama and Zushi beaches! so in the end, i just went with the one above (Yuigama) which as the rest had never been mentioned before.

I'd usually follow the crowd when clueless, but you specifically mentioned not being able to go to Okinawa this winter sometime ago. You've only had Kagami since September, so there should be no way this is Okinawa.
Your hints are evil. "Boku no Kagami" seems obvious - too obvious. I originally thought you might've been referring to the "mirror" definition, and that might mean the DannyChoo cosplay someone did. But...that's in Malaysia. I don't think you went to Malaysia either.
I guess I'll go with Yuigahama beach, Kamakura, Kanagawa.

I been there just a month ago. The eggs aren't really anything special, just chicken eggs that have been hard-boiled in a sulfur hotspring. The wasabi icecream was more interesting (and delicious), plus it was REAL wasabi, not that fake horseradish crap that's been dyed green. The shops there all had real wasabi in different forms.

Oh wait, they don't really 'just appear mysteriously'? Then isn't that place near Mt Fuji? I've been there, but because of the 'mysterious apperances'... lol.

I am pretty sure that Kagami is at Yuigahama beach (由比ヶ浜海岸) Kamakura, Kanagawa.
The hints that I go by are mainly the "Boku no Kagami" as in thet that is your Kagami figma, but the again it might be some of your so famous cosplayers, so I hope I am righ ^_^
Guess whose comment Danny used in the description - saved me some work there, thanks!

Its not Yugihama (sp?) beach in Kamakura nor Enoshima because its missing all the beer cans on the beach and crowds. Plus, I don't recall seeing palm trees.
Looks like a bit like Singapore or Okinawa. I'm going with Singapore.

Beach is, Shonan Beach in 相模湾、神奈川県
これ以上の情報を言ったら、危ないじゃないかなあ。ピッタリ当るわけないんじゃん。でもGoogleのイメージサーチをすると、何か、同じような写真が出てる。江ノ島だと言えないけどね。Dannyの写真の島は、何か小さすぎ。
dam its pretty hard to say but i'll settle for this
it'll explain the container ships in the distance and by the time danny went there, he should've got Kagami already?
= i think i've spent enough time on this not too obsessed yet :P

whoo hoo... finally someone with the same answer as me... I went a bit more specific and mention the kagenuma beach tho... hope, we're right... ^^
I was taken aback when some people start to mention Singapore... could be a possibility... but from what i remember, Danny didn't mention anything about visiting a beach here... He did however brought kagami with him... >.< *sweat*

I have to go with Sentosa Beach, in Singapore. Since it's near the Promax BDA Asia facility you were presenting at in Singapore. You could've been staying at one of the hotels on the beach too. A tip for any contenders left here. "Uta" song = sing, "sosogu" = to pour = a pour(?). Uta sosogu boku no kagami = singapore my kagami? It could be any other beach around the area (if any), but I don't know since I'm not from Singapore ^^ So I'm going with Sentosa Beach, Singapore.

Sentosa Beach, Singapore
There's no mention of Japan, but I'll go check out Okinawa for myself to see if anything looks like it.

So many Sentosa Beach answers now. I suspected Singapore myself, but (unfortunately) I know of no beaches. All I could've offered was "Singapore", which I doubt would've been specific enough. x_x"
