Astro Boy theme in Takadanobaba Station

This tone plays every time the train is about to depart.

Takadanobaba (well, a futuristic version of it) in Tokyo is the setting of Tezuka Osamu's Astro Boy/Tetsuwan Atom manga and anime. The area and the station with the theme are on the Yamanote loop train line.

Haha, my school in Japan had different songs for the school bell every day of the week. One of them was Astro Boy.

@Familygirl17 That's correct! He targeted wallets on this train line. :)

Did you say Yamamote Line? That's also the setting of the BlackJack episode "Tetsu, of The Yamamote Line."
