Anime background/setting tropes:

  - cicadas
  - airplanes
  - power lines
  - traffic signals
  - artificial riverbanks
  - lush sprawling forests
  - the roof of a building

Honestly. I went to Japan just last month and the fact that all of this is everywhere is just crazy.

excellent, but left out a small but very important one:

  - ice cubes shifting/clinking on their own in a glass
