いいよ、そうしよう！かいてんさせればいいんだよね。
Sure, let's do that! We just need to rotate them, right?
Gesture & etiquette
Smile and nod while pointing towards the seats to show agreement.
Do not rotate the seats while the train is in motion to avoid bothering other passengers or causing safety issues. Ensure there is enough space before turning them.
