Can I smoke on bullet train?

When I go on sightseeing around Japan, my plan is to use bullet train, but can I smoke on the train?

Unfortunately, basically NO you cannot do that.

There is one exception.
Tokaido Shinkansen(東海道新幹線) between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka via Kyoto has some trains
with smoking area by N700. Ask staff before reserving or purchasing if your train is so or not.
You can only smoke in areas but not on your seat.

Written only in Japanese, but info for N700 train
