    the best part is that you have to take the stairs down afterwards...so its really just for the laughs i guess XD

    Stairs right after it and why do they only go downwards? Would make a lot more sense if they went up.

    No, I rode this escalator and it's unreal to see how the majority of Japanese will stand on it rather than just walk down.

    In some stations there will be a line of 20+ people to stand on an escalator instead of walking up.

    I'm sorry sir, but we don't have enough money for an escalator.

    Owner: I don't care what you cut off, but I want this mother f***ing escalator!!

    There goes next month pay again... *sigh*

    i think the reason is for ppl not getting stuck in the middle of the stairway, or chatting and contemplating. it makes sense to me, and im not japanese
