J-Drama Pilgrimage | BOSS (2009) — 東京ミッドタウン, Eriko Meets Ikegami

Episode 1 of Fuji TV’s BOSS, broadcast April 16, 2009, uses 東京ミッドタウン (Tokyo Midtown) in Roppongi for the moment when Takuma Katagiri sees team leader Eriko Osawa meeting Hiroshi Ikegami. The nationwide filming-location record identifies Tokyo Midtown specifically for this scene, while Fuji TV’s official archive confirms the episode date and the launch of Eriko’s Special Crime Countermeasures Unit.

For a pilgrimage visit, this is a strong first-stop location because the real complex is still active and easy to reach. Tokyo Midtown’s official access page gives the address as 9-7-1 Akasaka, Minato City and notes that it is directly connected to Roppongi Station on the Toei Oedo Line, with access also available from the Hibiya Line and nearby Nogizaka Station.

The stored coordinate, 35.6651433, 139.7312897, is the mapped Tokyo Midtown complex point. It is intentionally facility-level: the filming record does not establish an exact 2009 table, doorway, actor mark, or camera position, so none is invented here. Visitors should use the public areas of the complex and respect any tenant-only or event-restricted spaces.
