Tokyo, Japan - June 7, 2026: A woman in a face mask walks along a train platform in Tokyo, looking at the phone in her hand, as a commuter train waits with its doors open. She carries a white shoulder bag and wears a dark jacket over white trousers. Behind her, platform screen doors with green stripes separate the platform from the silver train, and passengers stand and sit inside the open carriage. On the pillar at right, a sign marks platform 2, above a yellow emergency train stop button and a red STOP sign in Japanese and English. Tokyo stays very quiet despite its large population, even at busy hours, and most sounds in the city come from vending machine voices and station announcements.
