○Setting

• • Tsukunami Research Academic City

From there, it is another 15 minutes by bus to the center of Tsukuba University.

The name “Research Academy City” sounds good, but in reality, it is just a rural area. There are various research facilities scattered all over the place.

• • Tsukunami Station

This is the terminus station of the TEX connecting Tsukunami Science City and Akihabara, which used to be called an isolated island on land.

In recent years, the neighboring station, Tsukunami Research Academic City, has become more developed.

• • Tsukuha University

A comprehensive university located in Ibaraki Prefecture. It has Departments such as the Department of Physical Education and The Department of Arts, Which was unusual for a University.

The university is famous for its Professional Athletes, Olympic Medalists, Robotics, and Computer Science.

     The University boasts one of the largest campus areas in Japan. The university has a unique system of entrance examinations, including the so-called AO entrance examination, which is very similar to the one-talent oriented entrance examination.(一芸入試) (Ichigei nyūshi – entrance exam for a university giving preference to persons who excel in one special field) (http://www.romajidesu.com/dictionary/meaning-of-%E4%B8%80%E8%8A%B8%E5%85%A5%E8%A9%A6.html)
