Edit: apparently this is a very common form of Japanese storytelling called an isekai. There are 8 billion people in this world, no idea can be original. And sometimes you miss out on things many other people know. I’m clearly one of today’s lucky 10000.
Die, probably.
Probably quite quickly, if the train was traveling at any significant speed when all of a sudden it had no tracks under it.
Go on Slack and say I’m going to miss the daily stand-up.
This is a person who has been isekai’ed into work
You wouldn’t have internet access. To be clear.
Hey you, you’re finally awake.
what are you talking about that’s literally already how underground trains already work
What trains are you going on, lol
Trains are load screens.
See how much insulin I have left in my pump and start preparing myself mentally for death.
before Isekai, it was called getting Narnia’d. Last book happens with a similar situation
This. Of course isekai is a thing, but it’s not like the concept is exclusive to Japanese culture
Wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and… smell the ashes.
Check for my super cheat powers and pick the first woman for my isekai harem.
I’m thinking odds are it’s either a busty elf or a cat girl 😜
Isekai harems are “all of the above.”
Hey sometimes they are flat chested autistic girls or 7,000-year-old dragons who happen to look like a 9-year-old.
Personally I’m interested in neither but I’ve read a lot of manga
Flat chested autistic girl here. Can confirm I’m in 3 harems with brave travellers from another world.
I would be shocked for sure but how would I know how to react if I don’t know what this new world is like? Does it look like a barren wasteland? Does it look like Dinotopia? Does it look like a different planet altogether? When you say ‘unknown’, is it unknown to me only or do you mean it’s completely devoid of any civilized/intelligent species?
You look outside the train window and see what looks almost exactly like a forest on Earth, maybe something like redwoods, except the trees are much bigger than redwoods. A horse-sized dragonfly flits by. The front of the train carriage is crumpled, but there is a gash in the metal big enough to allow you to leave, if you desire, and to let the atmosphere in. You don’t feel any ill effects.
Okay, so I’m shocked and after a while I’m definitely hopping out of the train, presuming no emergency services show up. I don’t think I’ll last long if dragonflies are that large but I sure will die looking for them
bitch about SEPTA with other riders
Well I mean first off if everyone on the train was there you would want to discuss how to procede given the unknown part. I think the one person has it right in that I can’t think of something like it before narnia.

Probably just sit and wait for what happens next and hope all the people around me don’t freak out.
I lived in Japan for years without knowing about the whole isekai thing; I’ve just never really been into anime/manga.
Fight the urge to immediately get off the train.
Even with as many episodes of Star Trek as I’ve seen, I’m sure I’d want to rush right out and start exploring.
We should split up to explore more efficiently!
Ohh, this small creature in the underbrush looks adorable! I’m going to pick it up.
Well you have to aquire local workforce.
Check if wifi/mobiledata still works.
It does not.
