花ざかりの君たちへ (2007) | Tatsunoko Field — Mizuki’s 50-Metre Test and Sano’s Piggyback

Tatsunoko Field in Ryugasaki supplies the athletics ground for fictional 桜咲学園 in the original 2007『花ざかりの君たちへ〜イケメン♂パラダイス〜』. The episode-1 location record places Mizuki’s 50-metre running test here and also the moment when Sano carries her on his back. A local Ushikunuma filming feature likewise identifies the municipal stadium as a Hana-Kimi location and describes the distinctive Tatsunoko-yama hill behind the stands.

The venue survives as Ryugasaki City’s municipal athletics stadium, now officially branded AI Mechatech Field Ryugasaki, at 2-1-7 Nakazato. Ryugasaki City still lists it in its film-location library and notes that it forms part of the city’s general sports park. The coordinate marks the stadium itself, not an exact lane, starting block, or actor position. It is an operating sports facility, so pilgrimage visits should follow event and facility access rules rather than walking onto the track during restricted use.
