    It’s Seibu 2000 series, which serve the Seibu Ikebukuro line as express train. However, there are a few mistakes in the anime.

    very long text!!!
    1. When departing, point and calling is not performed. This is an extreme dangers practice as you have to confirm the doors are closed, signal is clear when departing. She is disqualified for sure.

    1. There is not even a signal on the track!! The line running ATS system, so I assume there is a signal, at least a home signal at the station. Where do they go???

    1. Also, there is not even a long bridge in the line. I don’t know how 7G can change the world like this, but there is not even a long bridge in the line, as the line just pass a really small river.

    2. It’s unprofessional for her to turn her head, rest her eye when the train is moving. She has to be aware on situation of the track in front.

    3. The distance between Agano and Higasi-Agano station is 4km. For a speed of 60km/h, it takes her about 5 minutes to get there. However, consider the time they stop at middle, how come it takes a whole episode to get there!? As she stops in the middle with no reason, she is being unprofessional.

    4. No one build a train track like a rollercoaster. The slope of the track is unrealistic sharp, but the character still consider driving though it, demonstrating lack of safety awareness.

    5. You can always use the train radio to communicate with nearby station. As Agando is a terminal, it should have a control room that can receive radio from train. Why still use moose code?

    In conclusion, the main character is not qualified enough to become a driver as demonstrated with above unprofessional actions.

    Thank for hearing my useless information.

    I feel like the amount of dialogue in this show really bogs down the pacing. The first half felt so slow, but the second half seemed to really pick up. If the studio can find their feet and keep things moving, I’m definitely interested to see all the weird places and people the girls will find on their journey. On the other hand, if we just get more dialogue scenes, I definitely don’t have the patience.

    I think it’s neat that we have the map now to foreshadow all the stations and their quirks - we already see that their current stop is marked with a mushroom.

    The pacing is all over the place but still better than first episode. The show doesn’t really build the characters and their struggles to really impact the viewer so the heartfelt moments just fall flat.

    I hope the writing/storyboarding team will find their footing and they will make better show at the end.

    The music and start up sequence of the train was really good.

    For now I am aboard the train just to see if they make it to the destination or the show will end up as a total trainwreck.

    This’ll be a strange journey…

    Geographical distance doesn’t mean anything anymore since 7G.

    What used to be a day trip to Ikebukuro looks like it could take months, adventures at each stop notwithstanding.

    The bitter melon plants growing at unusual rates looks like they’ve solved their immediate hunger problems, but bitter melon for every meal? Yecch! But beats hunger I guess.

    Has anyone noticed the rectangular panels on the floor?

    Those are supposed to be filled with sand that is slowly dropped onto the tracks for traction.

    Interesting world, and I love that the girls have so much personality, but I haven’t quite figured out who is who yet. Maybe that’s a good thing that they’re not too simple as characters.
