Took me two hours to go from San Francisco to San Jose by public transit, and I had to use an Uber for the last leg because the train for the last segment stopped running (this was for a journey started around 8 PM).

Took me two hours to go from Tokyo to Kyoto.

I have you beat with 1.5h from midtown Atlanta to east Atlanta via MARTA (subway + 1 or 2 busses, this was about 5-6 years ago.

There was no breakdown but this obviously depends on where in midtown you come from and where in east atlanta you go to, also just waiting on a bus can be 20-30 minutes per transfer.
