I can only imagine the piercing, momentary anguish of the poor chap in the red shirt who had to turn about. Something must have forced him to abandon every principle at that instant.

Otaku's mind: Gotta get that dojinshi or die trying..
My mind: I'd rather save that run for last 100 feet of 5K race.

Wait, who's filming that? I mean, the filmers had to first get there by other means before the first train arrived, and then just hang around outside of the station instead of wanting to get in the line like the others.

I'm guessing press/media, or someone who works at the station, or just some local who couldn't get ticket to the event.

The video below even shows one person getting bowled over in the chaos. Thankfully, that person seems to be OK.

You don't have to give a damn about him. He is an ill-intentioned youtuber who did the dangerous action on purpose to get video views.

I don't know if I am more afraid of a Zombie outbreak or an Otaku outbreak.

Those are actually two different people. The jerk in the red shirt was an attention-grabbing YouTuber, but there is a woman in white who gets run over in the video earlier in the article.
