An amateurish, boring photo of absolutely no social relevance or visual interest.

Really? Reuters, a very professional organization, thought enough of it to publish it. It gains visual interest from the fact that a real person is walking the same way the people in the ad are walking. Would have been a little bit nicer if the photog had dragged the shutter to blur her motion.

It's not so much that, as . . . it's been done already.

Some urban background of a Tokyo building or scene scape, and a business or casually dressed Tokyoite with a keitai. Oooh! How exotic! How electronic!

I think when I was snapping the Yaesu Mizuho Shoken board on Sotodori the other day, (after Kan won), I caught a passer-by in the flick. I have to go back and check, but it's going to look a lot like this photo. Except a guy and the electronic shoken board.

bicultural - there has to be a middle ground between grinning like an idiot and looking like a bagful of smashed arseholes like the denizens of this burg do.

Look at the drawing - everyone's mouth goes up at the corners. This vinegar-titted old trout has the corners of her mouth pointing at her shoulders. Par for the course in this neck of the woods.

What a waste of advertising.

People walking around with their eyes and ears glued to their mobile phone aren't going to see any of these creations, unless they bump into it...

@ ivan, I find your comment sad, not the picture

As for me, the woman is within my age group, that makes me smile :-)

ivan, do you always walk around town with a big smile on your face? Not unless you want to be thought of as "hen" eh?

Japanese woman + looking at + mobile + & texting = Bumping in to me at Tokyo Sation

If I gained a 100 yen for everytime someone bumps into me at Tokyo Station while using their keitai I would be a rich man.

Nice Pic. Humorous.

A sad truth that the only people with happy faces in this picture, as in town, seem to be the drawings. Everyone in 3-D looks thoroughly miserable all the time, no matter how many infantile "characters" they surround themselves with.

if she was a little taller she would look as if she was peeing on the dog.
