I was privileged to spend a week in Japan a few years ago .... & your right about Japanese manners, that was where i first encountered 3g phone use on a big scale, people are texting all the time on the train instead! I also heartilly approve of the Japanese considering it extremely impolite to blow your nose at a meal table! Great choise of music, thanks ... i realised it reminded me of Mahmoud Ahmed's album from years ago, also of Ethiopian Jazz.
for me, it's usually 3 beers. two tall, one short. and my own stinky bento from home, or one i buy just before getting on the train. my favorite snack from the cart is the mixed bag of peanuts with processed cheese cubes.
last time i took the shinkansen, i had to take the hikari, because my friends were on rail passes. sooo slow. they only had malt's beer. i passed.

The NOZOMI N700 service rocks!
It's nice to be able to spend a couple of hours in a train that is peacefully quiet (apart from the occasional snoring salaryman & announcments)
