The places that do have people that might stare, gawk, or look so hard it is noticeable don't have crowds.
This is what I noticed too. Being crammed into a train car in the morning was no big deal, I didn't get any strange looks and people seemed not to care. It was when there was a seat for everyone that I got people staring at me, some of them all the way to their stop, or mine, whichever came first.

It's funny you should mention that, it's what my host sister did when we were in Kyoto.
