  • Strangers on a Commuter Train
    Alisa Freedman Strangers on a Commuter Train Female Students and the Salaryman Who Watched Them in Tayama Katai's Shojo byo In the early twentieth century, there were several transformations in Tokyo urban space and in the lives of its inhabitants. Many of these new social and spatial move­ ments converged on the train. Throughout the Meiji period (1868-1912)1, a gro­ wing number of peopte moved to Tokyo from the countryside, and, by the first de­ cade of the twentieth century, the city population had exploded. However, in the years following ]apan's 1905 military victory over Russia, many families moved from the city to its surrounding countryside, seeking nature and tranquiHity away from the noise and crowds.2 The residents of these suburbs included the salaryman (sarariman), a worker who earned a monthly salary and was a member of the new middle dass which emerged with the financial growth and developing capitalist consumer economy at this time. Perhaps more in image than in reality, the sa­ laryman, his wife, and at least two children lived alongside upper-class families of high-ranking government officials, whose daughters often attended schoo'l in the center of Tokyo and commuted there by the expanding network of modern mass transportation. From the Meiji 30s, the last decade of the nineteenth century, the number of female students increased, and the image of the schoolgirl dressed in ha­ kuma, wearing hair ribbons, and traversing Tokyo or its suburbs on bicycle or by train proliferated in popular literature and mass media. 3 The rise of the suburbs, where the salarymen and female students resided, was facilitated by the develop­ ment of Tokyo's modern mass transportation network, especially the new electric trains, which were cleaner and quieter than steam locomotives.

Arriving to Tokyo it feels no different, and were it not for the alien neon lettering at junctions, we could have been in any city of the world. “It reminds me of China” Fanfan mutters at a time I was feeling the same. It is at this point where I realize just how little I know about Japan. My first impressions? It’s not as grainy as Akira Kurosawa movies, and nowhere near as animated as Manga or Studio Ghibli productions. This is how I know Japan; through movies and animation, with samurai and smiling eyes. I would soon go on to know and love Japan for many other reasons, expected and unexpected during our 2 week JR pass journeys.
