Or, you know, maybe they really were drunk teenagers.

  Drunk teenagers on the train in Japan would draw a TON of attention. That's just not socially acceptable there. Good chance the police would be called on them as well. Even drunk adults on trains is hugely frowned upon.

    Can you be more specific? Ive seen my share of drunks....but aside from coomuters actively avoiding them...no cops ever got involved. In my experience, its fairly common to see an avg salaryman drunk after work drinks. Usually the tell is a very red blush and borderline falling asleep or just acting drunk, but not loud. That being said, i dont think i saw teenagers. Or groups of drunks. Are you saying in cases of group of drunks people, cops got involved?

      I think the argument is whether it had been an underage drinking matters, though I do know first year undergraduate students does it a lot

    Ehh, I think that’s not correct at all?? Plenty of teenagers drink visibly in public here all the time. Normal bars, shops and restaurants never check IDs and drunk teenagers on the train are a common sight. And as other comments have said, almost any train late at night will have drunk adults as a pretty significant percentage of the passengers.
