Tetsuko's Travels (2007)
Synopsis
Kikuchi Naoe is a struggling manga artist in need of work. She lucks out when she runs into a travel writer and is asked to tag along. He turns out to be Yokomi Hirohiko, the Japan's biggest train enthusiast. In 1995, he visited all 4636 JR train stations. Now he is going to visit the remaining 5207 private stations. Kikuchi, despite her inital horror at her task, is stuck, as her boss is a huge train geek too. Thus, having few other options, she resigns herself to trying it out and henceforth accompanies Yokomi on his journey around Japan.
Episodes
Disembarking at Every Station on the Kururi Line
Kikuchi eagerly accepts a travelog manga job but finds herself bored to death because she doesn't have the slightest interest in stations or hopping on and off trains. At the end of the day, she found salvation in enjoying specialized Eki-Ben (Station Lunch Box).
130 yen, 1 Metropolitan Area & 6 Prefectures
Tetsuko's Travel crew traveled from one station to the next which cost 130 yen but used the longest way around route through 7 prefectures instead, without exiting the station
Doai / Yubiso: Date Course, Tetsuko Style
A young lady joins Tetsuko's crew traveling on the Niigata Prefecture railroad using a weekend train pass, dubbed "Date Course" by Yokomi.
South Tohoku, Yokomi Special
The crew travel to Southern Tohoku but Kikuchi is less interested at first, because of the sudden change in the person in charge of the project. Alas, when Yokomi claims the travel is "special" there are a lot of surprises (and frustration) await her.
