I think it must be the proximity to wayside equipment and the shockwaves entering and exiting tunnels, but for me the Shinkansen felt FAR faster (and more terrifying/exciting) than the TGV or ICE, which are relatively smooth and past mostly through farmland and fields (stuff far off in the distance). The Shinkansen just explodes through mountains and suburbs and you're constantly like gripping the armrest going "OH MY GOD" haha (but QUIETLY so as not to disturb others)
