''Densha Otoko'' (''Train Man'' in English) is a franchise that, as of the time of this writing,{{when}} consists of a book, a film, a television drama, and five different manga adaptations, all of which are based on forum posts in 2ch.
The main character is [[No Name Given|a nameless otaku]] living in Akihabara. One evening, as he is taking the train home, he sees a drunk [[Salaryman]] accosting a woman. He intervenes, and in gratitude, the woman asks for his address and mails him an expensive Hermès tea set as a thank-you gift. The otaku relays this information on the forum he frequents, whereupon he is given the moniker "Train Man". He seeks the advice and support of his fellow forumgoers to tidy himself up and ask "Hermès" out.
