Machida City is in Tokyo, not Kanagawa Prefecture, and Odawara City is in Kanagawa Prefecture, not Shizuoka Prefecture, but there are so many mistakes that even if the prefecture name is wrong, the mail still gets delivered. By the way, when I looked into it around 2019–2022, Mount Osutaka (Osutaka-yama) or Mount Takamagahara (Takamagahara-yama) existed with the same name in both Nagano and Gunma Prefectures, but now they are on the border between the two prefectures. ○ There are people who remember Mount Fuji being further west than it is now, spanning three prefectures—Nagano, Yamanashi, and Shizuoka—and there is a story that an unspecified large number of people remember that on a Fuji-special episode of the TV show “Himitsu no Kenmin Show” (a popular Japanese variety program about prefectural trivia), a celebrity from Nagano Prefecture shared an episode about Mount Fuji in their own prefecture, and that the memories of the episode talk about Mount Fuji in Nagano Prefecture match; this can be called one of the large-scale Mandela Effects in Japan. Also, when the Mount Fuji hazard map was revised, it was suddenly indicated that lava flows could cross Hakone and reach as far as Kanagawa Prefecture, which sent many Odawara citizens and the relevant municipalities scrambling in a panic. At that time, many Odawara citizens testified, “We thought the lava flow would stop at Hakone,” so this can be called an inexplicable memory held by an unspecified large number of people. Moreover, the terrain traces of damage from past eruptions do not match the current position of Mount Fuji.
