Bird's-eye view of the subway interior; the passengers change and the people become fewer. Shinji's only company throughout is the middle-aged man next to him; his pose changes, but finally even the man clears out.
BGM END: "Aoi Legend [Blue Legend]"
BGM START: "You are the only one"
thewayneiac: He's paid his fare, now he's going to get the most out of this ride.
Mr. Tines: Rush-hour to mid-morning pass, at least. This isn't any sort of local train, if the guy with the book is there long enough to have a nap after the bulk of the commuters have left. Even with a frequently stopping service, I'd reckon he's covered more than 50 miles by now, which makes the loop-line quite impressively long.
Reichu: 50 miles? Considering the measures we are given here, is that even possible? I suspected he was just letting the train take him around Tokyo-3 in circles. Then he wanders around Tokyo-3 some more and eventually takes the bus up into the outlying mountains.
Mr. Tines: If it weren't for the fact that the chap sitting next to Shinji has been there for a long time too, I'd agree. It's too much of a coincidence for another passenger to just be taking the line around and around going nowhere.
Hexon.arq: Maybe reading on the train as it goes in circles is that man's equivalent to mall jogging. Either that or he's a pervert.
