Location Megumi hitchhikes and then takes a ferry to Nekomi which she says is in Kantou area (eastern section) of Honshu (mainland of Japan).

That's a long ferry ride, and might be at odds with the manga event concerning Keiichi's father driving all the way from home and having to go through the Seikan Tunnel underground for 33.5 miles.
