You shouldn't really see any speed issues with Densha Otoko. I just checked and there are at least 20 seeds for every episode. Make sure you are forwarding the ports correctly, and that your upload speed is set to 70% of your maximum upload speed.

watching the first episode of Densha Otoko, very good.
d/l'ing the 2 and 3 ep's, slow rate.
any seeders? thought there was a lot of them, like a 100?
How many episodes are subtitled in English? and how long is the series?
I didn't know Misaki Itoh was in it, she is gorgeous!
TOKYO (AP) - Declaring you're a "geek" might get you strange looks in some places. But a Japanese movie theater is offering outspoken nerds something positive: a discount.
A small movie theater outside Tokyo is offering cheaper tickets to so-called geeks - known in Japan as "otaku" - for a summer romance movie about a nerdy guy who falls in love.
All that's needed to get the discount - 100 yen (US$0.90; euro0.73) for students and 400 yen (US$3.60; euro2.93) for adults - is ask for "one ticket for a geek" at the booth for the Japanese movie "Train Man."
"Customers are getting a kick out of saying it," said Koji Nitta, sales chief the Fujisawa Chuo theater, south of Tokyo. "There are only a few who look like typical geeks, though."
The ticket promotion, which Nitta credits with raising sales at the theater, is part of the changing image of Japan's "otaku," who have long been seen as social misfits obsessed with comic books and animated videos.
"Otaku" culture has become a legitimate field of research in Japan, and a study last year estimated that sales generated by goods targeted at the country's 2.8 million nerds totaled 258 billion yen (US$2.3 billion).
The movie, "Densha Otoko" in Japanese, takes so-called geeks into a genre they're not usually associated with: romantic love. The 22-year-old otaku hero turns to a favorite geek refuge in search of girlfriend advice - the Internet.
The movie is based on a book of the same title released last year. A TV series derived from the film was broadcast starting in July.
Offering a discount seems to be widening the types of people eligible to be otaku: Nitta said about 70 per cent of the theater's customers now claim to be geeks.
