HERO (2001) | Former Marunouchi Yaesu Building Site — The Jōsai Branch Exterior
kevin
Fuji TV’s original 2001 HERO used the Marunouchi Yaesu Building (丸の内八重洲ビルディング) in Marunouchi as the recurring exterior for the fictional Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office, Jōsai Branch (東京地方検察庁城西支部), where unconventional prosecutor Kōhei Kuryū arrives after his transfer from Aomori.
The original building no longer survives. The site at Marunouchi 2-chome was redeveloped as Marunouchi Park Building, completed in 2009; the present building therefore marks the filming site rather than preserving the 2001 façade.
Pilgrimage note: this is an active office/commercial complex in central Tokyo. Visit for the historic site context and exterior streetscape, but do not expect the prosecution-office exterior seen in the drama to remain.
