I didn’t really know that the problem of molesters in Japanese subways is real … I thought Its an urban legend.

Urban Legend ? I don’t know, maybe you mistook it for the Miracle Train.

I doubted that women are actually molested in trains, but seeing those announcements proven that this problem exists.

You are not like St Thomas. You just need to see an anime to believe it.

I’m just about done with Mawaru Penguindrum, but didn’t realize Double H is an allusion to real life musicians. Thanks.

All the credit goes to Penguindrum wikia, and to the authors of this very symbolic show.
