Every Corridor Tells a Story
The Yamabiko (ヤマビコ — echo of the mountain) is named for the Japanese folkloric spirit that answers back, that carries memory of what was said. Walk every deck in first person. Each compartment is named after a mission. Each wall holds something worth reading.
Kaguya Observation Lounge
The ship's most beloved space. A wide curved viewport with the HD Earth-rise footage playing on loop — the same footage that moved the world in 2007. Crew gather here when they need perspective. Visual novel scenes frequently play out here at night cycle.
Hayabusa Engine Bay
Hayato's territory. A functional engineering space with schematics of the original Hayabusa ion drives on the walls and a small shrine to the spacecraft that came home against all odds. The most emotionally charged room on the ship.
Hayabusa Science Laboratory
Kenji's workspace. Clean, methodical, and filled with sample containers from asteroid Ryugu — replicas, but treated with the same care as the originals. A science space that honors the mission that proved perfectionism is achievable.
SLIM Navigation Bridge
The command center. Precise, minimal, and slightly tilted — a design choice honoring SLIM's own inverted landing. The most accurate navigation suite on any fictional ship, because the mission it honors demanded 100-meter precision. Yuki's domain.
Akatsuki Meditation Room
A quiet room at the center of the ship with a single viewport facing aft. Named after the mission that waited five years for its second chance. This is where crew members come when they need to wait with purpose. Where the best conversations happen.
ISS Heritage Gallery
A long corridor lined with portraits, mission patches, and personal artifacts from every Japanese astronaut who served on the International Space Station. Sora maintains this space meticulously. Walking its length is a history lesson that never feels like one.
