I agree! The people disliking your comment only care about someone who is now dead. If you want to take your own life, it's your choice. But know that you will make other's suffer & what you are doing is wrong. So people who are mad about him saying this man is stupid & selfish, just know that your depression isn't an excuse to take the easy way out. I am very depressed & done with life but I keep on going every day, give yourself a goal to work towards & you will be happier. For me learning japanese has made me much happier & givin me a goal in life.

Here we go again! A stupid, selfish person feels the need to kill himself without a thought or care in the world how it will affect others, and two people, as well as the train driver and other passengers, have been scarred for life. I think Japan needs to change insurance systems since some still pay out in the event of suicides instead of freezing funds. Any policy he has, if any, should be put towards paying these people who were injured.
