A true love story turned to bestselling novel, created from the
Internet BBS, 2channel to blockbuster hit movie. Itoh Misaki plays
Aoyama Saori, working as an office lady at a MNC, gets into trouble
with a drunkard on a train. She's saved by Yamada Tsuyoshi, played
by Itoh Atsushi. As a form of appreciation, she sends him Hermes
teacups. Having no experience with the opposite sex, Tsuyoshi
decides to ask for help on the Aladdin Channel BBS on how to
interact with Saori.
Adapted from the best selling book "Train Man," this is the true
life story of a geeky young man's romance with a beautiful young
lady. The book is based on actual messages posted on a huge
internet discussion board in Japan. A million internet users
followed the Train Man's romance, giving him advices on how to
impress the girl and take her out on dates. Train Man belongs in
the so-called "Akiba-kei" category: a term that describes nerdy
looking men who hang out at Akihabara (the famous electronics area
in Tokyo) all day, who are obsessed with video games and
computers.
