242. Rush Hour Revelations: Rediscovering Japan's Packed Trains |数年ぶりに満員電車に乗ってみた

What catches your eye when you ride a packed Japanese train for the first time in years? Following my morning journey through Osaka's rush hour, I share my observations of life in the 満員電車 (packed trains) - from gaming commuters to the surprisingly few people answering messages. Compare the unique atmosphere of Japanese trains with Vancouver's SkyTrain, and get practical tips on timing if you want to experience (or avoid!) the famous ぎゅうぎゅう (cramped) rush hour yourself. A personal glimpse into this distinctive aspect of Japanese urban life.
