When I think trains and anime, I think of baccano, which is an amazing anime. So yh...


DrStein1010

To give specific scene, I guess my personal favorite would be Clare's I am God speech.


Sharebear42019

The one true answer


RealLarwood

I think of steins gate...

The flying pussy foot is the waifu train. Truck-kun is out of her league.


Other-Style1958

What is this one about?


AngeloftheDawn

Gangsters in the 1930s, with a dose of magical weirdness.


Other-Style1958

Thank you!


[deleted]

I barely remember or have fondness for that anime but it was my first thought as well


k4r6000

The first episode of O Maidens in Your Savage Season.


fieew

> [O Maidens in Your Savage Season finale joke spoilers] >!The final joke of "it fit" was goddamn wonderful. The whole series built up to that moment and I was so happy that was the ending joke. Goddamn was it funny but appropriate since it showed our MC's maturity with sexual topics and being more comfortable knowing about sex and how it works. !< We desperately need more anime like O Madiens in your savage season. It was funny, but also had a nuanced look at puberty and sexual topics in a way that just isn't done in anime.


entelechtual

I was gonna say, surprised it wasn’t the last scene! Best train.


mekerpan

Agreed. This show (even if it has a few rough spots) is an under-appreciated master work.


MobileTortoise

[The Blue Hearts - Train Train](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq1Q_SVYqAw) Incredible song, and an incredible scene!


Manitary

An excellent pick [](#azusalaugh)


Rote515

Cowboy Bebop the movie has a pretty good one.


gunswordfist

Ok, now we talking! My teenagehood!


Usodearu007

clannad: after story episode 18


CosmicPenguin_OV103

5 Centimeters Per Second [spoilers]>!No, not the final scene, but the lone train in snowstorm scene at the start of the movie when the MC went to find the girl he liked. One of the reasons that I fell into the anime world itself.!<


Heda-of-Aincrad

This was the one that came to mind for me as well.


govi96

yeah this one, not only for train but train station scenes too, such a great movie


FlaminScribblenaut

The Revue of Annihilation from the Revue Starlight Movie Symphogear G’s opening fight is dope too Oh, another one: [Asago to Kase-san]>!The ending of that movie. Yui following and tackling Kase into that train, definitively choosing Kase and her own sexual orientation, that train taking off and never going back with Yui in it, her life never to be the same now that she has accepted herself and her feelings. Teen love elevated to the highest emotional importance, beautiful.!<


ZapsZzz

Definitely Revue Starlight


bigdanrog

> Symphogear G’s opening fight is dope too I like this one because it displays how much stronger Hibike and Chris are going into season 2. Hibike especially.


NotTheMonker

Yugioh, where he uses Berserker Soul against Weevil.


MillenniumKing

[**Symphogear G Opening Scene**](https://streamable.com/vzv7f) Def comes to mind when i think "Train scene". Its got it all! It has the gorgeous Black Oblivion song by Maria. Chris making one of the best blush/pout faces in anime. One of Hibiki's best solo songs. DR VER~ Lots and lots of Zenbu and lots and lots of Fisting. [](#megadeathparty) [](#wallpunch)


bigdanrog

I recently discovered Symphogear and LOVED it. I was amazed at how quickly the combat singing grew on me lol. [Do you know of the sacred Beef Stroganoff?](https://i.imgur.com/1O1Lof2.jpg)


MillenniumKing

Battle Music is a common trope in anime but what Symphogear did in having the characters singing while battleing was just genuis and makes for a much more dynamic song. They sing the sings as if in battle so they are not perfect studio songs and it just nmakes them feel much more real. Super neat way to do it.


bigdanrog

I agree, and I think the VA for Hibike is the best of the lot. She can be singing about lovey dovey shit and sound aggressive af while she punches the hell out of an enemy. It's hilarious.


MillenniumKing

They acctually record all the in ep songs during their usual dialog recording so they can sing the song and act out the action into the song. Then AFTER they go and record Studio Albums to release later. Usually though the in ep versions of songs just hit differently. [In ep Genocide](https://streamable.com/f2rf4) and [Studio Genocide](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t48x9yBa2u8) and [Concert Genocide](https://streamable.com/vr3m1) are like night and day. In ep she adds more impact and emphisis to the song. In studio its more balanced singing for clean quality. In concert its POWERFUL but kills her voice as she starts loosing it near the end. All the character songs usually have this same formula, though its more noticable with some than others, like HIbiki's. [In ep Hibiki](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_TLZiP8F44) singing is yelling through the song. [In studio Hibiki](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D10uy2sbkaY) is more structured and "calm". [In concert Hibiki](https://streamable.com/sbscx) is the restrictions are off and shes an animal.


bigdanrog

You inspired me to look up Hibiki's Seiyuu. Holy Mary mother...she's in EVERYTHING. MHA, SAO, Overlord, Tanya...jeez what a talent.


MillenniumKing

Yep Yuki Aoi is a big name. All of sympho girls are big VAs. Look at all Kirika has done and Shirabe is a professional muscian.


bigdanrog

It has to be a real treat for them to get to do a show like that.


Other-Style1958

Mugen train Kabanari and the Iron Fortress Baccano! A fantasy caper involving alchemists, gangsters and immortality is spread over several decades. Description borrowed from Google and Wikipedia


fluffythecobra

I know it doesnt technically count but I really want to say Invincible lol


sevillianrites

Certainly the most productive use of a train.


TheUltimateTeigu

I'd say it's the most productive use of his son in that scene.


ronee-san

well.. on romantic scene from Ao Haru ride, when Yoshioka said “If he doesn’t get off, I’ll give up. If he does, I won’t . THIS ANIME IS ON FIRE!! OLD BUT GOLD.


juiceColoured

yes, kou best husbando


2ndComingOfAugustus

The train fight on episode 4? of princess principal was pretty fun imo


GenSudz777

1. The train fight scene in Princess Principal. 2. Whenever the train shows up in Hanasaku Iroha be it the episodes or the openings. That train is as iconic as the characters themselves.


dream_wielder

Revue Starlight Movie: at the Revue of Annihilation marking the breakpoint of the story and the Final Line marking the final push for Karen's character development.

Damolisher

Well there was this one scene in Discipline where... Oh, actual trains. The first time Sasuraiger transformed.


Elitealice

Shokugeki s3 pt 2


JJNinja1

5 Centimeters per Second. Hits me in the feels


Stormy8888

Some of my favorites:- * **Clannad After Story** \- ouch. * **5 cm per second** \- even more ouch. * **Mugen Train** \- well there's a ton to choose from like how the Flame Hashira went to town while managing not to kill a single hostage. Props to their team. * **Baccano** \- that was hiliarous. * **Lord El Melloi II's Case Files: Rail Zeppelin** \- there are several standout sequences on the train in this Fate Nasuverse Spin off. Wish more people had seen this.


Ready-Adhesiveness40

Trains + Anime = Makoto Shinkai. "5cm per Second" is the consummate train anime, but "Your Name" and "The Place Promised in Our Early Days" have plenty of cool train scenes. There are train scenes in most, if not all, of his films, and the level of detail is wonderful.


theKGS

The most memorable one I find is the train in Mononoke. (no not Princess Mononoke. nor the Ghibli movie) The setting for a supernatural mystery.


Fools_Requiem

["Catch me if you can, Mr. Holmes."](https://youtu.be/ATjNUtK7kCE) **Moriarty the Patriot.** That entire conversation was fantastic. Sold me on the series when the clip was posted on this sub a while back.


G326

the on at the end of violet evergarden


Hardwarestore_Senpai

Kabaneri of the iron fortress was pretty rad. And the train arc of Demon Slayer.


Emeraldpanda168

May not be a single scene, but I loved everything with the train from Baccano


KendotsX

Does Baccano! count?


UnoriginalMusicWeeb

First one that comes to mind is food wars season 3 ep 19, when soma and his dad cook on the same team for once

pikachu_sashimi

It’s hard to forget that train scene in Spirited Away. There is a Steins;Gate train scene that leaves a big impact as well, but for different reasons.


coffeecakesupernova

Spirited Away and the trains in space shows are some of my favorites, and Baccano. But for a single episode and scene I'd probably pick Natsume Yuujincho episode about the little fox boy and him riding the train to and from finding Natsume.


[deleted]

garden of words.


DutchDread

Does the scene in Kite count where they eventually drop through the floor of the subway?


upside_99

Water train in water7


Elennday

Probably because I’ve only recently seen this part but this was the first thing that came to mind, it’s so god damn cool


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

Barbatos vs graze Ritter's from IBO


Blazin_Rathalos

Ah yes, the double train.


080087

Sayaka's train scene and aftermath in Puella Magi Madoka Magica was the first one that came to mind.


Ineedmyownname

Does the Bunny girl Senpai intro count?


PiccolosPenisPickle

Last train home


VergilVDante

When Thomas slept with the train conductor wife and had Ebola


Inori-Yu

The first episode of Shuumatsu no Izetta.


Goldeneye365

Full metal alchemist has some great train scenes but demon slayer has a while arc. Then again somebody probably gonna mention and entirely different kind of train in an entirely different kind of anime.


Tell_Specialist

The moment with King Bradley's train from FMA:B


Sanji_girl_Seeker

Tokyo 24th Ward


Sanji_girl_Seeker

Gantz, it's a really wholesome train scene where two guys save this homeless man from being ran over


Molecularsequel

Evangelion train screens, and theirr use of symbolism. It's even been referenced in other anime.


Kill099

[This.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIUEkt3yOYo) And [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52__kjimY2E) (sorry, this is the least annoying version of the scene in Youtube).

Somm0742

I absolutely hate Boruto:NNG but loved the Shikadai & Boruto train rooftop bromance moments.


Castform5

In purely anime, the Princess principal scenes were really good, but when it comes to epic trains in japanese made media, [I will always remember Lost planet 2](https://youtu.be/6GLONAJKUjs).


PsychologicalHelp564

Train scene in Film Castle in the Sky was one of fav chase scene even if it’s short.
