Top 10 fun things about the Shinkansen!Sei Mobile Co., Ltd. conducts a survey of 300 men and women

The Shinkansen is used for various purposes such as work, travel, and homecoming. Are you wondering how to spend time on the Shinkansen? This time, I investigated the fun of the Shinkansen by dividing it into 10 items.

Sho Mobile Sho Mobile Co., Ltd. (Headquarters location: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Masayasu Arai) operates "Sho Mobile" (https://masamobile.co.jp/), which is 300 men and women in their 20s and 60s. We conducted a questionnaire about the fun of the Shinkansen for the names. Sho Mobile Co., Ltd. surveyed 300 men and women who are using the Shinkansen about the fun of the Shinkansen. We prepared 10 typical items that will be fun for the Shinkansen and selected all that apply. As a result, it was found that "viewing the scenery from the car window" was the most common with 126 out of 300 people. The fun of the Shinkansen is that you can see the scenery from the train window. The plane is from the sky, but the Shinkansen can see everything in person. Speaking of fun from the train window of the Tokaido Shinkansen, "Mt. Fuji", which shows different appearances depending on the seasons, is probably the first. Even in this survey, the overwhelming majority of people were looking forward to seeing Mt. Fuji from the Tokaido Shinkansen. ● "If the weather is nice, the mountains and natural scenery will look beautiful and heal. Especially when heading to Tokyo, I am excited to see Mt. Fuji. I think the real thrill of the Shinkansen is that you can enjoy the changes in the scenery that approach the city from a place full of nature. (29-year-old woman) ● "What I enjoy on the Shinkansen is sitting by the window, looking at the scenery, buying ekiben, buying drinks, and having a sense of speed, which is one of the pleasures. I especially like when I see Mt. Fuji because I think it's so fast, and I sometimes see the yellow Shinkansen. (53-year-old man) ● "I often use the Shinkansen between Tokyo and Kyoto, but I love the view of Mt. Fuji from the Shinkansen and am looking forward to it. Of course, in addition to Mt. Fuji, the geographical feeling that you can feel in the scenery of where you are now makes you feel like you have landed on the land. Even in a land you don't usually know, it's exciting to feel the lives of the people who live there. (38-year-old woman) Survey outline [Questionnaire survey by Sei Mobile Co., Ltd. on the web] Survey target: Men and women surveyed nationwide using the Shinkansen: 300 (204 women / 96 men) Survey date: 2021 May 29-May 31 Survey method: Answer via the Internet [Respondents' age] ● "Enjoy the scenery that changes little by little from Tokyo Station, look at seasonal flowers and greenery, and see the sea up close. You can enjoy the trip by taking pictures and seeing various landscapes of Japan. (51-year-old woman) ● "I definitely want to see Mt. Fuji on the Tokaido Shinkansen. The sea from the vicinity of Atami and the mountainous terrain make you feel that you have come on a trip. I think the best part is to look at the changing scenery while feeling the exhilaration of running through the Shinkansen at a ridiculous speed. (34-year-old woman) ● "I want to feel like I'm on the move. As was the case when I was single, especially when I was raising a child, I like the feeling of getting out of my daily life and pushing my normal life away. I also like the fact that I can feel relieved while having an extraordinary feeling. It is also great that I moved from Tokyo to a rural area and realized that Japan has various climates. (Female, 54 years old) ● ​​"The main means of transportation is by car, and there are many planes on occasional outings, so I don't take the Shinkansen very often. So it's very fresh. Airplanes rarely enjoy the scenery outside, and cars are often drivers, so they can't afford to enjoy the scenery. Therefore, when I get on the Shinkansen, I am looking forward to seeing the outside scenery to my heart's content. ”(43-year-old woman) ●“ I like to see the scenery of various areas, especially when it changes from evening to night. The scenery is fantastic and the best. Also, because the speed is faster than ordinary trains, the Shinkansen's appeal is that it instantly changes to a different landscape. Sometimes I'm looking forward to riding and I'm always excited. (Male in his 40s) ● "Ekiben may be available everywhere now, but there is a special feeling that you can buy it at the station and eat it on the Shinkansen, and you can enjoy the atmosphere that can only be enjoyed on the Shinkansen. I'm looking forward to the ekiben every time. And it is strange that it feels much more delicious when eaten in the car. (37-year-old woman) ● "I enjoy eating what you can buy there, such as ekiben and local specialties." When I see something I don't usually eat, I just buy it so that I can enjoy the boring and long Shinkansen travel time as much as possible. I like to enjoy the taste of the region without having to order it. (43-year-old woman) ● "I really like choosing various bento boxes before going through the ticket gates of the Shinkansen. I don't usually buy ekiben, so when I get on the Shinkansen, it's fun to buy ekiben. And sitting on the Shinkansen seats and eating while looking at the outside scenery is the best because it makes you feel extraordinary and luxurious. (37-year-old woman) ● "My rule is to eat" chicken bento "on the Shinkansen from Tokyo. Showa retro package with a simple composition of exquisitely seasoned fried chicken and ketchup rice. It has been more than 20 years since I moved to Tokyo at the age of 18, and I have overcome the sober price increase, minor changes that reduce the number of fried chicken, and the suspension of sales due to bird flu, and I can not move to other bento boxes anymore. (42-year-old woman) ● "I like cooking, so thinking about what you can do to yourself, such as seasoning and how to cut ingredients by imagining the cooking process while eating, will lead to improvement in cooking in the future. There is a possibility, and I am looking forward to it from the perspective of touching various dishes as teaching materials. (24-year-old man) ● "Drinking beer on the Shinkansen was one of the things I definitely wanted to do when I became an adult. I bought beer and knobs at the shop on my way home from a business trip, and when I sat down and the Shinkansen started to move, I opened it up and relaxed my tie while moistening my dry throat, and I felt cool as a child. (38-year-old man) ● "I always drink beer on my way home from a business trip on the Shinkansen. The inside of the Shinkansen is a public place like a private place, so if you drink alcohol there, you will be doing something a little bad and you will have a unique joy. Drinking beer on the move is fun. (46-year-old man) ● "Because I can relax in my personal space through my seat even though I am on the move, and I can feel the bliss of drinking while being aware of my hobbies such as drinking comparison and time allocation." .. Also, I like the time to scrutinize snacks and local sake at convenience stores and ekiben corners before boarding. ”(36-year-old man) ●“ After finishing a business trip, I bought beer and snacks at the kiosk and boarded the Shinkansen. The beer that you open the can and drink is the best. The subtle shaking of the Shinkansen increases sickness, and it is even better to get sick with a single can. (48-year-old man) ● "It's not a very good act, but I enjoy the scenery from the train window while tasting the sake and snacks I bought at the convenience store. If it is not enough, I will purchase it additionally by in-car sales. I'm just careful that I fall asleep and get overboard. (47-year-old man) ● "I am enjoying the space where I can't do anything, the space where I don't have to do anything because of time, and time. This is because you can spend a relaxing time at the destination station while listening to your favorite music in a limited personal space. (20-year-old man) ● "The fun on the Shinkansen is sleep, but the reason is that it is the only place where you can take a nap slowly except at home. I mostly use the Shinkansen for work, so the Shinkansen is one of the means of transportation. This is because I want to get some sleep and get rid of my tiredness while traveling. (44-year-old man) ● "Be sure to reserve a seat on the window side at the end where there is only a back wall by making a reservation one month in advance. Since I usually ride in the section I'm used to riding, I don't have to look at the scenery anymore, and I put the backrest back to sleep comfortably. I don't know why, but I can sleep very comfortably. (36-year-old man) ● "It does not have the vertical sway like a general railroad, and it slides with moderate rolling, so it is ideal for taking a very light nap. When I wake up, I personally feel very comfortable arriving at a remote place, and when I get on the train, I give priority to sleeping first. (56-year-old man) ● "Many people use it for work and often travel alone. I take the Shinkansen early in the morning for a day trip, so I go to sleep to solve my sleep deprivation. I'm tired on my way home, and I sleep because it's dark outside and I can't see the scenery. It's no different from a commuter train. It's just a means of transportation. (52-year-old woman) ● "I always buy vanilla ice cream. It's a little luxurious of Sujata, and I like to melt it little by little and eat it. Aluminum spoons that melt ice cream by heat conduction of the hands are on sale, so it is recommended at the same time. (40-year-old woman) ● "I often use the Tokaido Shinkansen for travel and business trips. On the way back from that time, be sure to buy the ice cream sold in the car. It's hard and very hard to eat, but I like it because it feels good. The price is higher than supermarkets and convenience stores, but for some reason I always buy it. (49-year-old woman) ● "I think that in-car sales are the real thrill of the Shinkansen. If you're alone, you'll spend your time looking at the scenery without talking to anyone, but just talking to the people who sell in the car will refresh you and make you feel better. I think the disadvantage of the Shinkansen is that you can't enjoy it so much because the scenery passes by in a blink of an eye. (47-year-old woman) ● "What I'm looking forward to on the Shinkansen is buying ice cream, commonly known as" Katai Ice ". During the long journey, I'm looking forward to eating a little while slowly melting the ice cream with both hands. Also, I'm looking forward to buying ekiben. (41-year-old woman) ● "When I'm riding the Shinkansen for a long time, the reason I'm looking forward to the incoming train sales is that ice cream is on sale. It has seasonal flavors, so you won't get tired of it no matter how many times you use it. It's fun to take the time to eat the ticked ice cream with your child. (44-year-old woman) ● "The subtle shaking of the Shinkansen can be very concentrated when watching videos such as youtube. And as I watched the video, I gradually became drowsy and fell asleep. When I wake up, I'm looking forward to being at my destination. (25-year-old man) ● "I often watch videos when I'm on the Shinkansen. It usually takes about 2 hours to travel on the Shinkansen, so watching videos on YouTube, Netflix, etc. will make you feel like you're arriving early and kill time! I'm looking forward to seeing it slowly and intensively. (25-year-old woman) ● "When you read a book, you tend to get drunk because you look down, but when you watch a video, you don't get drunk because you don't look down. This is because you can minimize the stress of your body and spend your time comfortably. (38-year-old man) ● "In everyday life, it is difficult to secure time to watch videos such as YouTube slowly, so watch a lot of videos taken during the time when there is nothing to do on the Shinkansen. I'm really looking forward to looking back at my favorite videos. (24-year-old woman) ● "I'm looking forward to watching the video slowly because I can sit down and spend my own time without doing anything else. Recently, I started taking online lessons, so it's fun to be able to study while traveling. You can concentrate on the Shinkansen. (35-year-old woman) ● "Drinking is not for sale in the car, but for purchase in advance. Sometimes it's a Starbucks or a vending machine. It's a relatively familiar item, but when I notice it, I usually pour it in quickly and easily. On the other hand, I don't get chased when I'm on the Shinkansen, and of course, the atmosphere is different from usual, and I feel it's delicious whether such things are taken into consideration. For this reason, I naturally enjoy coffee. (49-year-old woman) ● "It's blissful to have a warm drink while thinking about the fun while thinking about the schedule at the travel destination, in a relaxed and quiet mood without being disturbed by anyone. It's time. I think it's a great taste for traveling alone. (58-year-old woman) ● "I love coffee. I only get on the Shinkansen once or twice a year, so I'm looking forward to drinking coffee because the Shinkansen coffee has a special feeling. Shinkansen coffee is as delicious as convenience store coffee, so I buy it twice until I get to my destination. (34-year-old woman) ● "When I ask for coffee for sale in the car, I feel like going on a trip and I feel better. I like to drink coffee while watching the scenery change from the train window. However, the taste of coffee is not delicious because it is poured from the pot, but I like the situation more than the taste of coffee. (Female, 50 years old) ● ​​"I don't usually get on the Shinkansen, so getting on the Shinkansen is a special event for me. I don't usually use in-car sales so much, but when the in-car sales come around only when I get on the Shinkansen, I buy coffee and drink coffee leisurely while looking at the outside scenery. .. It's a very luxurious time for me. (37-year-old man) ● "In this age when it is difficult to go on a trip, enjoy the feeling of traveling and luxury with a green car that you ride on a business trip. It's modest, but for me as a commoner, this petit luxury is enough. Sometimes it's fun to try Gran Class and refresh yourself in a short amount of time. (45-year-old woman) ● "If you apply for Ekinet's early discount, you may be able to get a ticket cheaper than a non-reserved seat even in a green car. That will give you a great deal, and above all, your feelings will rise. Not to mention the large seats, it also has a footrest, and even if you put both elbows on your armrests, you won't hit the next person. It's wide enough not to bother you even if you tilt the backrest. (36-year-old woman) ● "I live in an area where the Hokuriku Shinkansen is scheduled to open. The Shinkansen is almost unfamiliar until now, but since I will be able to pass through it, I would like to take a slightly better seat and experience the comfort of the seats and space. High seats are much more expensive than boarding an airplane, so it's hard to come by, but I admire them. (36-year-old woman) ● "I haven't been riding recently, but I often enjoy the view from the train window. Also, riding a green car as much as possible makes me feel like I'm rewarding myself, so I'm always looking forward to heading to my destination while working slowly on my computer. (36-year-old man) ● "I don't usually eat on trains or vehicles, so I'm excited about a green car.

(19-year-old woman) ● "Because I am detained for a long time on the Shinkansen, I can concentrate on reading magazines and it is not a pain to keep sitting.

Also, if you use e-books, you can buy what you like in the car, so you will never get bored. (28-year-old woman) ● "I chose to read magazines and newspapers as a pleasure on the Shinkansen because I can concentrate on the Shinkansen.

(21-year-old man) ● "Because I have to sit for about an hour and have nothing else to do, I can relax and read magazines and newspapers without disturbing others.

(45-year-old man) ● "Read the booklet in the front seat pocket. Get information by looking at special features, limited goods, and products sold in the car.
