How much typing is this?

Typing every station name on this line takes 203 keystrokes, an average of 9.7 per station. The longest name is 新宿三丁目 (shinjuku-sanchome) at 17 keystrokes; the shortest is 瑞江 (mizue) at 5. Those counts come from running each name's kana through the game's own romaji engine, so they are what your fingers actually do — not the length of the printed spelling.

Along the way: 0 names contain a small っ, which doubles the next consonant; 5 contain a small ゃ, ゅ or ょ, where the engine accepts both the Hepburn and Kunrei spellings (sha or sya, shu or syu); and 0 end in ん, whose trailing n folds into whatever comes next rather than standing alone.

Marked with a star: 新宿 — the major interchanges, which the maps always label and the game marks with a heavier arrival stamp.
