    List of the Tokyo Kekkai (Barrier Fields)

    Nakano Sun Plaza'''


    中野サンプラザ

    A cultural hall in the Nakano ward, west of Shinjuku, internationally known as a musical venue. Destroyed by Sakurazuka Seishirou in the manga and the motion picture. Nakano Sun Plaza did not appear as kekkai in the television series.

    Sunshine 60'''


    サンシャインシティ

    A sixty-story skyscraper in the Ikebukuro ward, well-known for its myriad shops, novelty restaurants, aquarium, and SKYMAX planetarium. Destroyed by Monou Fuuma and Nataku in the manga and the television series, destroyed by Nataku in the motion picture.

    Yamanote Line/Tokyo-eki


    山手線/東京駅 (Tokyo Station)

    The busiest mass transit rail line in Tokyo, encircling much of the city with the Imperial Palace roughly at its center. Destroyed by Asagi Shougo in the motion picture, destroyed by Monou Fuuma in the manga, and (nearly) derailed by Kigai Yuuto in the television series.

    Shinjuku Highrises


    新宿の高楼

    The many skyscrapers of the Shinjuku ward, the administrative and commercial center of Tokyo. Destroyed by Yatouji Satsuki in the manga and the television series, destroyed by Shiyuu Kusanagi and Kigai Yuuto in the motion picture.

    Shibuya 109


    渋谷109

    A landmark building in the Shibuya shopping district famous for its trend-setting department store. Destroyed by Sakurazuka Seishirou in the manga. Shibuya 109 does not appear as kekkai in the television series or the motion picture.

    Ebisu


    恵比須

    A popular shopping district in Tokyo with many sidewalk cafes and fashion boutiques. Destroyed by Monou Fuuma (with POP CANS) in the manga. Ebisu does not appear as kekkai the television series or the motion picture.

    Rainbow Bridge


    レインボーブリッジ

    A landmark bridge across Tokyo Bay connecting Tokyo with the Odaiba district, which was built on reclaimed land. Destroyed by Sakurazuka Seishirou in the manga and the television series. Rainbow Bridge did not appear as kekkai in the motion picture.

    Kokkai


    国会議事堂 (The Diet Building)

    The chief legislative building of the Japanese government. Destroyed by Fuuma Monou in the motion picture. Kokkai does not appear as kekkai in the manga, and although it appears to act as kekkai in the television series, it is never destroyed let alone attacked.

    Ginza


    銀座

    (Yet another) shopping district in Tokyo, known for many department stores, coffeeshops, and restaurants. Destroyed by Nataku and Monou Fuuma in the manga. Ginza does not appear as kekkai in the motion picture.

    Inokashira Kouen


    井の頭公園 (Inokashira Park)

    A large, lush park in the midst of the Mitaka district of Tokyo. Destroyed by Monou Fuuma in the television series, and attacked (although not destroyed) by Yatouji Satsuki in the manga. Inokashira Park does not appear as kekkai in the motion picture.

    Yasukuni Jinja


    靖國神社 (Yasukuni Shrine)

    A shrine in Tokyo dedicated to all fallen Japanese soldiers. Yasukuni Jinja does not appear as kekkai in the manga (although Aoki Seiichirou has Saiki Daisuke and Nekoi Yuzuriha meet him there), and it does not appear at all in the motion picture. In the television series, it may or may not be an actual kekkai, but (as in the manga), the Dark Hinoto lies to the Seals, telling them that there will be an attack at Yasukuni Jinja in order to divide their forces.

    CLAMP Gakuen


    CLAMP学園 (CLAMP Academy; also known as CLAMP School and CLAMP Campus)

    A fictional school/functioning community in the southern area of Tokyo built in the shape of a pentagram enclosed within a circle. CLAMP Academy figures into SEVERAL of CLAMP's works (among them, CLAMP School Detectives, CLAMP Campus Defenders Duklyon, Man of Many Faces) and was (apparently) built by the Imonoyama family with the dual purpose of providing some of the most talented minds in the world with an educational setting and sealing the Shinken within the centre of the pentagram which the school forms (three purposes if you count partying, which it seems that the students of CLAMP Academy LIVE for). Although it never comes under attack by the Angels (indeed, it seems that the Angels--excluding Fuuma, perhaps--cannot transgress the boundaries of the campus), CLAMP Academy seems to act as a protective zone much in the same way as the kekkai. After Monou Fuuma's awakening as the Kamui of the Chi no Ryuu, Imonoyama Nokoru provides the Ten no Ryuu with all of the resources at the disposal of CLAMP Academy.

    Tokyo Tawa


    東京タワー (Tōkyō Tower)

    Perhaps the most important kekkai. A landmark of red and white steelwork done in the style of Paris's Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tawa is the final kekkai. Tokyo Tawa is a central recurring landmark in many of CLAMP's works (including Tokyo Babylon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Magic Knight Rayearth, and CLAMP School Detectives). In the motion picture and television series, Tokyo Tawa is attacked by Monou Fuuma, though in each of these instances Shirou Kamui manages to prevent him from destroying it. In the manga, it remains to be seen as to whether Tokyo Tawa will survive the Final Battle.
