This Is How They Greet A New Bullet Train In Japan

How? With a great screaming happy wall of people dressed up in superhero costumes who line the entire track, that’s how. Even if you take into account the Japanese love for Shinkansen and the fact that this is a company video by JR West, it’s a remarkable show. Homework assignment: spot the Power Rangers – then imagine the same in Europe or the US. (Hat-tip to Marci–X)

    So cool, reminds me of a real life Katamari Damacy game for some reason.

    I think this is actually celebrating the extension of one of the Kyushu Shinkansen lines rather than a new train.
