## Description

Product Description Train Man: Densha OtokoComputer engineer Otaku (the Japanese term for “geek”) is an average young man, dressed in unstylish clothes and dorky glasses. But as luck would have it, he encounters a pretty young woman on a commuter train and saves her from a lecherous molester, falling in love with her at first sight. A few days later he receives a thank-you message from the woman along with a set of Hermes teacups. Having never had a girlfriend or received a gift from a girl in his life, Otaku seeks out his pals on his BBS website for advice using his codename Train_Man (Densha Otoko): “How should I ask her out?” Deeply interested in Train Man's first love, his BBS pals eagerly supply him with advice. Encouraged by their support, Train_Man undergoes a total makeover for his first-ever date with “Hermess”. Little does he know that he is about to ignite an Internet phenomenon...]]> desertcart.com A supposedly true combination of a romance and a Pygmalion story, Densha Otoko began as an on-line tale that captivated audiences in Japan: there's a novel, a TV show, and a manga series, in addition to this feature. The title character is a textbook otaku, an anime and video game nerd who divides his time between the electronics stores in Tokyo's Akihabara district and the computer in his cluttered room. One day on a commuter train, he prevents an obnoxious drunk from bothering a pretty girl. She sends him a set of Hermès teacups as a thank-you and a tentative romance begins. Train Man has no idea how to behave with a girl, so an on-line posse tells him how to dress and what to say. Ultimately, his example inspires them to go out into the world. Director Masanori Murakami effectively uses a split screen to create the on-line community. Takayuki Yamada makes a wonderfully maladroit Train Man: when he calls Hermès for the first time, he holds the phone as if he were about to commit seppuku. Miki Nakatami infuses Hermès with a winning mixture of gentleness and independence. This touching romance will delight Gen-Y and -Z members, whose lives are bound to the Internet. (Unrated, suitable for ages 13 and older: minor violence, alcohol and tobacco use)--Charles Solomon

Review: Under Dog Love Story - Densha Otoko is a heart warming, uplifting film. Its a wonderful underdog love story with great story telling. It incorporates a dynamic ensemble cast enabling it to strike resonance with almost any audience. As is to be expected with any foreign film, there will be increased appreciation if you understand the culture from which it comes, but even without an understanding of modern Japanese culture, or more specifically, Tokyo life-style, it is still a touching tale with very entertaining conventions. Being foreign, it can't be given a rating such as G, PG, PG-13, etc., but I would easily rate it as a PG movie. It is good, wholesome, and provides endearing redeeming qualities for every character. Based on an autobiographical novel, it lends itself to the believability that you seldom find in the romantic comedy genre. Naturally, some departures have been made from the original story for the sake of fluidity, but many of the storytelling mechanisms used in the movie are directly derived from the book, making it poetically interesting as well. I'm not one to give story details in reviews, but if you are concerned with the attractiveness of the story, note that the success of the original book spawned an anime series, a television series and this movie, all of which sustained impressive popularity in Japan. Summation: You can't go wrong with this pick.
Review: Amazing!!! - This movie is a story about how the Internet can influence the lives of its users, both positively and negatively. Train Man (hereafter referred to as Densha Otoko) is a 22-23yo otaku [anime geek] who's never had a relationship in his life. This suddenly when he helps save a beautiful woman from a drunkard on the train ride home. That's where he gets his name from. From there, Densha goes onto 2chan, the Internet's largest bulletin board system forum. He asks for advice and eventually, thousands of people across the net encourages him and cheers him on as he fights the standards and himself in his quest for true love. This story is apparently true, but after hearing the commentary, I would say it's existence on the Internet is totally true...but in real life? I'm not so sure. However, whether it actually is true or not, the story of Densha Otoko changed thousands of lives across Japan and even the world. If you love romance and don't mind English subtitles in a foreign film, then this film is a pure delight. Highly highly recommended.

I thought this movie would be a great movie to watch, but it wasn't that good at all.
