Resting Inside Trains
Tokyo and several other critical Japanese cities are commuter hubs, with the majority of people living on the outskirts traveling into the city for work. And, with long hours of overtime and often working on weekends, Japanese people have very little time to relax or even sleep.
Even early morning school club practice and after-school juku (cram schools for extra tutoring) take a toll on students’ sleeping habits. Everyone gets up early, stays up late, works, studies, or takes the train.
