The Drifting Classroom - Locations

Locations

Yamato Elementary School

The school that Sho and everybody have been transported to the future in. It consists of a few buildings, including a storage shed and factory that were also transported into the future.

The school has:

• A pool (used for water supplies)
• A separate gym
• A science room/chemistry lab (containing hydrochloric acid and chloroform)
• Greenhouse
• First-Aid Room (Despite the fire in Book 5, this room is still in good shape)

Nation of Yamato Elementary

It originally was the Yamato Elementary School. Many events happen to the nation throughout the story.

• Book 4: The school officially becomes a nation and becomes under attack by a giant insect and a swarm of them.
• Book 5: An official census is taken and there is a black plague outbreak.
• Book 6: The plague subsides, an entire building is burned to the ground, plants are grown, and then nation becomes target of a flash flood.
• Book 7: The flash flood ends with no damage done to the school, plants become infested with a strange fungus, the crack in the pool is fixed, and a well is built for water.
• Book 8: The school comes under the control of Sekiya.
• Book 9: The school is converted into a military-like base with barbed wire. The underground monsters attack the school and Sekiya takes off in his vehicle with most of the school's food supply. After the monsters leave, strange starfish like creatures arrive and the school is divided into two sides with Sho on one and Otomo on the other.
• Book 10: The school is abandon due to a toxic clouds passing by.
• Book 11: The school is repopulated and the remaining students stay in order to return the world back to normal.

The Desert

Originally Tokyo, but somewhere in the future where Sho and his friends are, Tokyo is now just a vast wasteland.

A few things have survived throughout the years:

• Memorial sign for Yamato Elementary School
• Hotel Keiyo (Barely, the rooms and floors have turned into a giant cave system and only one side of the hotel still exists)
• The General Hospital (Mostly gone except for the basement and morgue which held a lone dead body in it.)
• Tokyo Bay: The water has completely dried up in the bay and only a few old ships are still left behind in the end.
• Tokyo Subway: The Tokyo Subway is barely still there. One train cart still exists and is only used by the underground monsters in their ritual. Lots of dead bodies are around as they are the fallen survivors of the future world.
• Amusement Park: It is uncertain when this park was created since it appears to happen after the students are teleported to the future. The entire park still is able to function and the theme of it is time from where it starts in the dinosaur era, to where it ends in the future era, which is destroyed.

The Future Forest

Originally created through Nakata's mind, this forest consists of strange plants. It is also the home of the insect monster, who only appears when Nakata eats. After Sho makes Nakata faint, the forest collapses and turns into sand along with the monster.
