Riding the EDDY Bus from Tokushima to Okayama | Scenic Seto Ohashi Bridge Crossing
I recently rode the EDDY Bus operated by Tokushima Bus from Tokushima to Okayama, Japan.
This route is jointly operated by Tokushima Bus and Ryobi Bus and provides a direct connection between the two cities without any transfers.
One of the highlights of the trip is crossing the Seto Ohashi Bridge, which offers great views of the Seto Inland Sea. The journey takes about 2 hours and 35 minutes, making it a competitive alternative to traveling by train via Takamatsu.
The bus I rode featured standard 4-abreast seating, power outlets, Wi-Fi, and a restroom onboard.
I made a full video showing the seats, onboard facilities, scenery, and a comparison with the train route.

Have any of you ridden long-distance buses in Japan? I'd love to hear about your experiences.
