Having moved from Hamburg Germany to Shinjuku a few months ago I would like to add that I am still astonished by how clean the streets are here despite there not being trash bins except for the ones for cans and the ones inside of konbinis. Of course some people litter and if you go to Kabukicho or the along the street to Shin Okubo you’ll see more trash than let’s say in Nishi Shinjuku but given the density of these areas it’s still so surprisingly clean here. I also regularly see people (often elderly) pick up trash from the streets and put it into the trash bags just to clean the streets for everyone apparently. Maybe it is just the collectivist society showing here but I think this is rad!
