Priority Seating
Priority Seating
Ever since they started using these signs on local trains, I’ve been constantly reminded of the omake Prince of Tennis episode entitled Beach Volleyball something-or-other.
Pairs of former tennis players from Seigaku and Rokkaku (now beach volley players due to some cruel twist of mangaka fate) were pitted against one another. Unfortunately, thanks to Ryuzaki sensei and Ojii (who made up the formidable Ryuzaki-Ojii pair), losers ended up becoming “Silver Seats” シルバーシート or priority seats to the old coaches which was especially gross.
It was a truly hilarious episode. Probably one of the best, sadly. Or maybe I just enjoy these types of obaka hijinks.
I should totally do moblogging more often.
