Misaki Town
Misaki Town (三咲町, Misaki Cho?) is the town where the events Tsukihime, Kagetsu Tohya, Melty Blood series, and Mahou Tsukai no Yoru takes place in, and the town also appears in Kara no Kyoukai.
The town is located around the mountains, it was formerly known as Misaki City Misaki town (三咲市三咲町?). It flourished as a post town from the Edo period, modernization in the town has progressed rapidly in the last decade. It is also known as a commuter town leading towards Misaki city.
The town was under the control of the Aozaki clan from several hundred years ago. The land is far from Mage's Association reaches but it is targeted by other mages as it is the last remaining magic source.
The distance between Fuyuki City and Misaki Town is equivalent to the distance of Kantō and Kyūshū.[1]
Locations
Tohno Residence
The home of Shiki Tohno and Akiha Tohno.[2][3]
Kuonji Residence
In the Mahou Tsukai no Yoru world, the Kuonji mansion shares the same location as the Tohno mansion.[4]
Kunoji residence (久遠寺邸?) is a mansion located at the top of the hill of white Inuzuka, Misaki Town. It can only be seen from a place high above from a certain level. Upon Alice Kuonji father's death, Alice inherited the mansion and it became a keepsake of her parents. The mansion is an old European-style building which was taken from the United Kingdom in certain circumstances. It is rumoured with "two witches are living" and "Haunted House". It is a large house with three floors, there is an annex built for a library of magic that even Alice couldn't grasp all of the contents. Aoko and Alice claims it to be their Magic Den (魔窟?).
Alice claims the forest behind the backyard is her special place and thus the condition of the forest is also deeply involved when presented with a ritual magic.
Initially she lived with Aoko Aozaki and later with Shizuki Soujuurou.
Imperial Metropolis
Imperial Metropolis (大帝都, Dai Teito?) is the grilled beef restaurant that appeared in Tsukihime and Mahou Tsukai no Yoru.[4] Technically it is located next to the town. There is a special menu, an all-you-can-eat to challenge the limits of human beings.[5]
Messiaen
Messiaen (メシアン?) is a Curry shop in Misaki town. It is Ciel's favourite store.
Shopping District
Shopping District (繁華街?)
Aida church

Ahnenerbe
In Tsukihime PLUS-DISC, Seo Akira meets Shiki Tohno in Ahnenerbe and consults about her future vision.
Kontsuki
Kontsuki (昏月?) is a delivery udon shop in Misaki town. There is a shop in Mifune City.
Private Misaki High School
Private Misaki High School (私立三咲高等学校?) is a Private high school established in Misaki town. The school has a 50-year history, originally there was once a primary school that was located where the school is located now but it was closed for 20 years and relocated to the mountain further away from the current school.
It established a second school building thanks to the funding of a certain department store group due to the modernization of Misaki town. However there was a decline of students because the local residents of Misaki town wants a public high school. The students are obliged to join the club activities as a general rule.
Aoko is the student council president.
High School
The unnamed local high school where Shiki, Arihiko Inui, Ciel and Satsuki Yumizuka attends.
Asagami Private Girls Academy
Asagami Private Girls Academy (浅上女学院?) is the school Akiha attends. The name is written as 浅上, which may be a reference to the Asagami family that owns a construction business in Kara no Kyoukai.[6]
Reien Girl's Academy
Reien Girl's Academy (礼園女学院?) is a private prestigious girls school, located in the suburbs of Misaki. Its value is much higher than Misaki high school, the school is sponsored by Fujino Asagami's father.[7] It is a strict school that is sealed off from the outside and it is rare to see the students in public. While the school is in session, the girls need to stay at the dorms and can't go out unless they receive a special permission. Similarly people from the outside aren't allowed in. However Alice is a special case, she is allowed to commute from home and Fujino is allowed to enter the city twice a month due to periodic medical appointments. It supposedly wants to educate girls with manners, but students who transfers from a regular school do not like it at all. It has a size of an university, and the garden of thick trees almost feels like a forest. Their school uniform looks like a cassock. It's said to have been a sister-school of a renowned school in England, but recently other girls' academies had emerged using Reien as the template.[7] Since this school is cut off from the outside world, you can say it's a natural bounded field. A magus might do an experiment in here and society wouldn't know.
In the events of Kara no Kyoukai sixth chapter, the principal "Mother Riesbyfe Stridberg" requested Touko to investigate the suicide of one of the student death.

[] Tsukihime Dokuhon PlusPeriod - TSUKIHIME Dictionary: Shiki's room [Place name], p.180 Shiki's room [Place name]
It goes without saying, this is the protagonist Shiki's room.
Since Shiki is Akiha's older brother, you'd expect this to be a mighty fine room, but… do my eyes deceive me? It's even more barren than Kohaku's! What's going on!? If somebody unfamiliar with Shiki's personality (and the way he doesn't really keep a lot of stuff) saw it, they'd be convinced it was a case of the sister-in-law (Akiha) bullying the bride (Shiki). Of course, since Shiki himself seems perfectly pleased with it, there's no problem. Also, though you can't tell from the background graphic in the game, there's a fireplace and a desk in the room as well, among other things.志貴の部屋【地名】

[] Tsukihime Dokuhon PlusPeriod - TSUKIHIME Dictionary: Tohno Mansion Basement Kingdom [Place name], p.185 Tohno Mansion Basement Kingdom [Place name]
It's undeniable that the Tohno family has many secrets. However, this is not just true of their lineage, but even the mansion they live in.
With features like an underground room for disposing of those who have awakened to their Tohno blood, a dungeon that can confine people for a lifetime, and a research lab run by a mere servant, it really is a suspicious place. But most conspicuous of all is the enormous cavern beneath the mansion, the Tohno Mansion Basement Kingdom!
It's unclear who made it, and for what purpose, but it appears to be a miniature world that functions as a pseudo-absolute monarchy. Though it looks like a nuclear bomb shelter designed by a crazy rich person, judging from the equipment within it's actually the base of a secret society scheming world domination.
Its existence was confirmed during the events of Melty Blood, but later no matter how much Shiki scoured the mansion the path to the underground kingdom was nowhere to be found. How… eerie…遠野家地下王国【地名】

TYPE-MOON Ace 2 - The Secret of Mahou Tsukai no Yoru's Birth The stage is very unique, and a lot of work went into drawing the background as well.
Nasu: That's correct. We don't want players to feel the setting is unpolished no matter how far back it's set. The goal is to have the player should feel "I want to live in this city," to paint a memorable and beautiful street scene. Actually the setting is Tsukihime's Misaki Town, Tsukihime fans should be able to recognize locations such as the grilled beef restaurant Dai Teito. The Kuonji household has the same location as Tohno household from Tsukihime.

[] Tsukihime Dokuhon PlusPeriod - TSUKIHIME Dictionary: Dai Teito [Place name], p.184 Imperial Metropolis [Place name]
A yakiniku restaurant in Misaki. Well, to be precise it's actually in the neighboring town, but…
As a paradise of meat that competes not on quality but price, it's a popular hangout for students who want to get a lot of bang for their buck. They have an all-you-can-eat special available that tests the limits of human endurance, and the rankings are updated monthly. However, it seems that the monsters occupying the first and second place spots are unlikely to be displaced any time in the foreseeable future.大帝都【地名】

The private boarding school for girls that Akiha attends.
It is about an hour away from the Tohno mansion by car. Normally students are forced to live on campus, but Akiha has received special permission to commute to school from her own home. She actually did live in the school dorms when Shiki was living with the Arima, but it seems she forced the matter after he moved back into the Tohno mansion. Unfortunately, the oafish big brother didn't notice his noble little sister's efforts at all.浅上女学院【地名】

The mysterious, unearthly kingdom of cats. Also known as the GCV. An underground kingdom that is both everywhere in this world, and nowhere.
Its size is constantly fluctuating from village to cottage to company, but in the end it's basically a village. There are some that say it is the dream of a certain mighty cat.グレートキャッツビレッジ【地名】

Neco Arc's killer move. J214A. She attacks horizontally by… turning into a rocket!
It seems that there may be some connection to the technique "Farewell, Ciel-sensei! Our friendship ended in the Crocodile Garden!" that appeared in Neco Arc's command list in the third character popularity poll.
Also, this is totally unrelated, but all of Neco Arc's techniques are extremely powerful. Something like the True Ancestor Beam can't be fully observed with the naked eye. Of course, this technique is no exception – its fearsome effectiveness is seriously troublesome.
Incidentally, aren't there crocodiles in the Great Cats Garden…?ワニ園に行きたいわたし【技名】

[] Melty Blood Act Cadenza PS2 Manual - Dictionary: Elite Neco Corps [Technique name], p.059 Elite Cat Troops [Technique name]
The Neco Arcs summoned by Neco Arc. The GCV's only military unit.
It is a self-defense force composed solely of specially chosen Neco Arcs whose overflowing savage nature, excellent physical ability, and unmatched intelligence cannot be controlled. These chosen few are known as Abaddon's Beret, and are the envy of all the Neco Arcs.
Of course, that's completely unrelated to its power as a technique. There is a high degree of randomness involved, so it's really only useful as a provocation.
Probably, this was done in order to faithfully translate the idea that even Neco Arc cannot control the Neco Arcs into game mechanics.
Also, recently there have been rumors swirling about a Dark Chaos Corps, but…?エリートネコ部隊【技名】
ネコアルクが召喚するネコアルクたちの事。GCVの唯一の軍事機能。
野性をたぎらせ、優れた身体能力と知性を抑えられない選ばれたネコアルクたちによる自衛部隊である。選ばれた者はネコアルクたちから羨望をこめてアバドン☆ベレーと呼ばれる。
技としての性能は論外。ランダム性が高い為、挑発としてしか使い道がない。これはネコアルクですらネコアルクを制御できない、という事を忠実にゲーム化した為だろう。
また、最近は更なる暗黒混沌部隊が組織されたというが……？
