My jap sucks cos I dunno kanji, but it seems they're forecasting early early Feb already possibly first bloom liao. That is like a full month earlier than previous years; this year's sakura hunters going to be burned badly it seems.

No need to reserve also ok..can stand haha..for Tokaido line from Osaka to Tokyo, normally train no 1 to 5 are for none reserved seats.

During my trip, most of reserved ticket sold out so I hv to que @ non reserved cabins. Haizzz.. there were times I hv to stand esp from hiroshima to okayama b4 getting empty seats..

However if u are going to Nagano those trains are seperated by reserved & non reserved type.

Que at the non-reserved cabin? like how? 1 long line along the aisle and the front person gets to sit first even though the empty seat is at the last row?
