It can sometimes sound silly to pass through a place in Japan and remark that "it looks like an anime", because after all, many anime feature intricately researched and illustrated recreations of real locations in Japan. Talented photographer Akine Coco (Twitter, Instagram) proves that at just the right moment, the saying has a lot of truth in it. In what appear to be particularly countryside settings in Japan, Akine writes in their Twitter profile that they "show the anime-esque world through photographs", and their latest beautiful photography certainly does that!

While many of Akine's subjects are of everyday scenery and found around Japan, they seem to be able to capture them in a light and from angle that really do make them seem as if they were lifted from an anime directed by Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli, or perhaps a Makoto Shinkai work.
That's why Akine posts them usually with the caption "Just like a scene from an anime," here are a few of Akine's standout shots!
For even more awesome anime-esque photography and look at some truly awesome Japanese scenery, be sure to follow Akine Coco on Instagram and Twitter.
