Yes, it's a very big thing. In middle school, you MUST join a club, no exception. In high school, it's optional, but it's compulsory in middle school. Unlike in anime, clubs are considered extra-curricular activities and will never have priority over official school activities, unless there is a...

Zim, A Desktop Wiki. This is much less disruptive to the writing process compared to online story organizer, which could lag, loads slowly, have connection error or can't be reached at all when the internet is down. Zim's save-files are also plain text. So in case you just want to share it with...

In some cases, it depends on how hot you are. In most cases, you're treated like a curiosity. It's not too exaggerating to say that you'd be treated like a zoo animal. People will want to look at you, talk to you, and stalk you, but most students would just keep a distance from you. The most...

No, it's a personal preference. Like people who prefer walking than driving. There are plenty of adult Japanese who prefer either speaking in third person or not using pronouns at all. Of course, you don't normally do this with people you're not close to, as it's considered slightly...

Yes. Being a school teacher is a favourite job for hot girls looking for a husband. Of course, teaching ability factors in more than appearances. But school teachers have to appear presentable at all times, and young teachers straight out of university are very common.

Yes, that cliche trope is actually a thing. Doesn't happen all that often though. After all, it's not like you can trick the teachers. If there is a spot in school that is isolated, the teachers will most likely know about such spots as well. Smokers also have the additional hurdle of random...

Yes, it's normally cold, which is better. Because you'd be keeping that lunch in your bag for like 4 hours. If it's hot, you know it's gonna go bad by the time you eat it. By the time you eat it, it's already warm enough that the cold of the fridge won't be there anymore.

Not sure how it would differ in America as Ai-chan has never studied in America. But based on the movies, Japanese schools don't put much emphasis on foreign languages as America is. We do get to learn English, Chinese and German, but that is dependent on the availability of teachers and the...

For Ai-chan, it was Home Economics and Chemistry. Most hated subject was Literature.

No problem, but Ai-chan made an error there. The school term ends in March, not May. Ai-chan was sleepy and didn't realize Ai-chan typed May.

Yes. Back in Ai-chan's day, the school dress code was veeeeery heavily enforced. Your skirt is too high, you got whipped, and told to lower the hem or the teacher will call your parents. Ai-chan doesn't remember long hair being a problem, as Ai-chan too had long hair back in school. Ai-chan...

Well, taking care of the school sounds like students are being treated as free labour. It's not really like that. While yes, older schools usually get students to do the brunt of the work, schools without janitors or gardeners also get teachers to help out, particularly in dangerous things...
