Abstract: This research clarifies the economic ripple effect of contents tourism implemented mainly in Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The target content is a group of works created by Hideaki Anno, a video creator from Ube City. The analysis method utilizes an input-output table. As a result, it became clear that this tourism policy has produced an economic effect of approximately 1.3 billion yen. On the other hand, because input-output analysis requires specialized knowledge, there have been few cases of using input-output analysis to verify policies promoted by local governments at the municipal level in Yamaguchi Prefecture. In the future, we will continue to analyze the economic ripple effect, especially for measures taken at the municipal level, and quantitatively verify the measures.
