Akihabara has a new maid-style cafe but this time the maids are replaced by railroad attendees, weird? Not so much! Japan’s train otaku (who call themselves tetsu) are a really well established subgroup of the otaku kingdom. In this cafe, called Little TGV, you have to purchase a ticket to get in and as expected, everything form the decor to the drinks has a train twist to it. They even replace the usual background music with the sound of train wagons rolling along the tracks!
I’m actually surprised it took them so long to open up one of these cafes, perhaps they thought the guests wouldn’t arrive in time! Oh that was an awful joke, sorry its not easy to joke about something as boring as trains!

So… trains are the new moe? This world is indeed full of mysteries.
