Why are truck accidents such a meme in Japan?

Why do so many tragic characters meet their untimely end by the front end of a truck? Why do so many shut in NEETs immediately get run over in the rare occasion they step outside their apartment only to be whisked away to another world? Are Nipponese truck drivers known to be particularly reckless? Does Japan have a particularly sordid history with vehicular manslaughter?

I mean it's gotten to the point where writers are making fucking meta jokes. Pic related.

Just why does Japan romanticize the notion of death via truck so much?
>>
As a hikiNEET, I can verify that nothing good ever happens when you leave your home and I've almost been ran over by a truck once and by cars a few times.
Just lack of awareness to their surroundings, basically.
>>
Asians are notoriously bad drivers.

The NEET has to die somehow in order to get whisked away to another world. Considering they are NEETs, how are they going to die?

The easiest and most plausible way, aside from a heart attack/poor health (which would disqualify him from being our MC) is a car accident--something easy to get into, especially in large cities like Tokyo, that doesn't put the MC at any kind of fault, and requires little to no set-up or world-building (such as a murder would require).

It's the most convenient way to give a character a sudden, unexpected death in modern Japan.
>>
>>146654646
Name three.
>>
>>146654243
It's a convenient heroic/tragic way to die.

It's tragic since it happens in a public place, so they can literally kill somebody mid sentence and whatnot, but really the main thing is showing the heroic side of a character who's not done anything in his/her life.

Consider Konosuba where the meta joke you brought up happens. It's set up as the traditional "Neet jumps into traffic to save a life and gets killed for it" situation, which happens because a lot of characters (neets especially) don't have a ton of great ways to both
A. Show that they're heroic, and
B. Sacrifice themselves for somebody else.
Jumping in front of a truck and saving somebody's life is a convenient way of doing both, and get in that heroic sacrifice to get across to the audience that "no, seriously, he may have wasted his life but he's real noble"

In-world explanations can be shit like "the worlds are connected through reincarnation, but you're the chosen one so you manifested fully formed instead of being completely reborn" but the meta reason is because they want the MC's life in the other world to be over so there isn't questioning about going back.

Suburban streets in larger Japanese cities tend to be narrow compared to the US, and a lot windier.

They're not. A yandere does not listen to the object of their feelings, because they already have their own delusional view of them.
>>
>>146657058
Well alright then, perhaps "singularly obsessed" would be a better phrase.

Either way it seems unlikely for a yandere love interest to fall in love with the MC again after reincarnation without knowing already that he was a reincarnation.
>>
>>146656920
Well, I guess so...
>>146657126

That is indeed a good question.
It has been around since the golden age of manga. Way too many Tezuka stories, for instance, are plagued by the deadly JAPANESE TRUCK.

Subaru got teleported there by magic, by whatever the fuck wanted him there. Dying is not truly a necessity.

If they just get teleported there by magic, they will still have lingering attachments and connections in the old world. Family will worry about them, missing persons reports will be filed, and the protagonist will be concerned about trying to get home.
On the other hand if they die then there's no problem, they can just be carefree and become cheating harem master in their new world without worrying about their family and friends and job back home.

Because Japan is a small country with dense ciities which have high traffic. People probably die from truck related incidents at an abnormal rate in that country as a result of them being so industrial while being the size of Delaware.

I haven't a clue but my theory is Japanese truck drivers are like Japanese salarymen: Obsessed with their job and probably killing themselves if they fuck up. Hence a truck driver will drive like a madman if he was late.

I wish somebody went surreal with the reasons of death, like in a dream. That's it, I want a dream-based anime.

Plane suddenly stalling and falling right on top of you, going in water, just to lose all of the strength in your body and drown.

Or wait, what about an isekai battle royale deathmatch, where the people who go lucid first gain control over the world, and eventually when enough people go lucid, they have to fight the first people to win control over the world for themselves? I have no idea what the stakes should be, and what non-lucid dreamers' role would be, but damn it, I want to see a surreal dream anime.

There was a scandal a decade ago about defective trucks causing fatalities due to bad design. Might have imprinted in Japan's society the random deadliness of trucks.

Lived in NYC all my life, went to Taiwan on vacation once, and the traffic there was insane. Dunno how similar Japan is being another densely populated island nation. I thought I knew cities, but you have to have balls of 1000 times folded nippon steel to drive in congestion like that. It's no wonder everyone and their mothers have dash cams there. Though I will testify that truck drivers are the ballsiest of them all because they basically have to maneuver a vehicle twice the size of everyone else in what is basically no space. Most of them just brute force their way through traffic since they are the biggest, and if you really want to people have basically no choice but to let you through. From what I've heard from locals, motorcyclists are the most cancerous on the road, because there's so many of them (vastly, vastly more than in NA) and they ALL pull the typical cyclist stunts like weaving through traffic and bursting through turns and intersections.

It's a different world of traffic out there. I can see why asian drivers feel like fish out of water when they get to America with our relatively wide country roads.

Tokyo roads are pretty much empty compared to Taiwan, everyone either takes the train or rides a bicycle.

Freak accidents are the sixth leading cause of death in Japan, right before suicide. They don't have a lot of crime, they don't even have a lot of illness. Truck accidents are all they've got if they want to kill off a character.

Incidentally, one of the leading causes of death in Japan is pneumonia.
The deadly Japanese cold is a very real thing.

I want to watch a show about a girl who is cursed with a thousand death flags.

The despair begun from the very moment she was born as her mom died from Clannaids.

Then she, at an early age, masters the skills of avoiding abduction, trucks, drowning, getting lost, etc.

She lives in front of a hospital, has a detailed medical history, looks both ways before crossing the road, doesn't mess around in dangerous places, and really just prefers to stay at home where there is no danger (she does know how to escape in case of a fire in under 20 seconds, however).

She also needs to have a typical Key-like cast around her, with a guy who tries to solve all the problems that she will constantly push aside because he brings all the fucking flags on her, dumb best friend, etc.
