      Leopold Polák actually that’s not accurate about the subway system.
      There are two companies that run what are classified as a subway system. They are known as
      1) Tokyo Metro (formerly known as Teito Rapid Transit Authority (帝都高速度交通営団 Teito Kōsokudo Kōtsū Eidan), commonly known as Eidan or TRTA) is a private company jointly owned by the Japanese government (through the Ministry of Finance) and the Tokyo metropolitan government.
      2) Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation (Toei Subway) which is owned solely by the government of Tokyo.
      Rapid transit systems combined.
      Number of lines 13
      Number of stations 285
      Daily ridership 8.7 million
      Now all of those lines are in fact are rapid trains but they’re mostly rapid commuter systems and private lines that are the overwhelming bulk of transit in the metropolitan area.
      This Wikipedia article basically explains how this complicated system moves. So in short the subway is much smaller.

    I have been to Tokyo, Barcelona, London, Paris, and Berlin. All of them worked quite well I thought, the Tokyo one was a model of efficiency and cleanliness. With all of these systems, travelling during the busy periods could be a challenge and navigating some of the larger stations was very confusing, particularly Shibuya or Shinjuku in Tokyo. One of the better integrations of regional rail and metro lines was Berlin. Of course, Berlin also has much lower density than the other cities. In all of these cities, these transit systems enabled people to walk more, ironically, and so people were healthier as a result.

    I lived in Paris from 1997 to 2001, and can honestly say that I quickly found using the métro to be straightforward and self-explanatory. As opposed to, say, the New York subway, which has express and local service, and overlapping lines that appear in the same color on the map (A, C, E). Parts of Parisian métro lines 8 and 9 overlap, but they have different colors on the map, and you can clearly see that every station is served by both lines.

      Oh, you don't know your ABC's and numbers? :)
      Each station on the official MTA map (not the crappy fan-designed version shown in the video) is labeled with the lines served.
      Yes, stations can be confusing, as there were originally three different companies (IRT, BMT/BRT, IND).
      Also, those express lines are a brilliant design! Not only do they allow commuters a fast trip into the city, but they also serve as auxiliary tracks during accidents and repair.
      ...and then there is the 24/7 service...

    You need to remember one very important thing, or you might get lost - some interchange stations are served by two lines - one line on one track, the other line on the other track. In case you've missed your station and want to go back, you will need to go to the neighbor pavillion. In short, look for directions and follow them, Moscow subway is good with that ;)

    I am Japanese. Even with this, new line construction is still ongoing. In fact, many of the lines that are in the red have been eliminated, so the number has decreased significantly compared to the past. What's more, even with so many lines, the trains still arrive on time, and even during rush hour, they run on schedule, which is amazing.

    Tokyo Metro's 2210stations, 158lines and 4715km includes rural national and private railway lines that have nothing to do with the metro and are not in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
    For example, it would be like counting all British Railways in Southern England, or all Long Island Rail Road and Amtrak lines in New York and New Jersey as metro, which is not fair.
    The true scale of Tokyo Metro is 286 stations and 13 lines, including public corporations and prefectural railways.
    However, most Tokyo Metro trains run on national and private railway lines and run directly to suburbs.
    So if you count those stations and lines, the number should double or triple.

    For clarification, a "line" in New York City is not the same as a "service" (route). There are 36 lines, but only 25 services. This is because a line is the actual infrastructure, whereas a service is merely a pattern on the line, and is typically not limited to one service per line.
    Also, that's nowhere near an official map.

    2:36 is the real Tokyo subway map. 2.41 is the Yokohama subway and the Tokyo subway and all urban rail in four prefectures combined on one single map, like if the London underground map included Brighton, or the New York subway map included eastern New Jersey.
    Note: The private railway Tokyu corp has through trains on the Toyoko line that continues onto the Yokohama subway in the southern end and onto the Tokyo subway in the northern end, so you can actually ride on both subway systems without changing train, (even though Yokohama and Tokyo are separated by the large town Kawasaki).
    (On the left half of the map at 2.41, there's a red line that runs diagonally towards the lower left corner. It has five bold red characters beside the line on the map. That's the Tokyu Toyoko line. Where it ends is where it continues onto the Yokohama and Tokyo subways respectively.)

    A couple things:

    Secondly, the Seoul subway map shown in the video is very outdated. The map was made between 2003 and 2004, and between then and 2017 more lines have been opened and line 1 has been massively extended.
    Moreover, by December 2017, the total length of the Seoul subway system was 1113.2km and there were 21 lines (including light rail) and 680 stations.

      You know the London Underground? It's 55% above ground.
      Then when you go to Tokyo, 10 of the 13 subways have through service to other mostly above ground lines. It should be noted however that the Namboku Subway Line continues straight onto the Saitama Subway Line.
      So why should London Underground's above stations count when Tokyo Metro's through service to another subway company doesn't count?
      Every place has different rules.

      It’s not that difficult tbh, you get used to it pretty quickly, as Tokyo is very very large and the lines spread out into the suburbs you only really need to know the local lines. Google maps is especially useful as they show u exactly what lines to take as well as the price in case ur interested. I’d recommend staying on one network if possible as transferring from one train company to the other would be more expensive than staying on a single one.

      Services on some commuter lines, like the Keihin-Tōhoku, Yamanote, and Chūō-Sōbu Lines are so frequent and rapid that they should be regarded as metro in the inner metropolis.

      technically nearly all commuter lines are regarded as metro because more than half of them are underground (except Japan Railway Lines because all Japan Railway Lines are overground except the Yokosuka Line between Tokyo, Shimbashi and Shinagawa stations
