I heard that there every people got the same education when they leave the school and everybody got the same status. They all need to get accepted grade from the last tests before they can leave the school building(?). Someones left home 2 o'clock at the night if I remember right. I'm I all wrong?

Good t he Japanese culture is often perceived as "uniquely unique". This leads to the widespread application of cultural "us" and "them" studies of Japan, wherein Japanese culture is placed next to Western culture particularly the culture of the United States, rather than considered independantly. Such studies have a tendency to overstate the importance of certain aspects of Japanese culture, as they are particularly foreign to a Western ethnocentric observer, and gloss over vital parts of the Japanese culture as they are not remarkable from an ethnocentric perspective.According to Benedict, inter-relationships between people are heavily influenced by concepts of honor, obligation, and duty in a way that is much less true in the more individualistic West. Finally, The Chrysanthemum and the Sword asserts that generalized conceptions of morality and desirable behavior are less developed in Japan, where particular and situational obligations to family, school, and friends tend to guide behavior. See: Japanese values.Japanese popular culture not only reflects the attitudes and concerns of the present but also provides a link to the past. Popular films, television programs, comics, and music all developed from older artistic and literary traditions, and many of their themes and styles of presentation can be traced to traditional art forms. Contemporary forms of popular culture, much like the traditional forms, provide not only entertainment but also an escape for the contemporary Japanese from the problems of an industrial world. When asked how they spent their leisure timelthough Japan is often thought of as a hard-working society with little time for pleasure, the Japanese seek entertainment wherever they can. It is common to see Japanese commuters riding the train to work, enjoying their favorite manga or listening through earphones to the latest in popular music on portable music players.

Haha lol why would you plagarise to post on a forum? Its supposed to be your own opinions. Anyways back to the topic. Yeah the way that the japanese study is really really strict. Basically they study about 10 times harder than everyone else. I mean come on they even have school on saturday.

I hear japanese education is very strict! If you get a low score on a quiz, they'll send you to the guidance counsellor! And they might even call your parents! Just for a quiz! But I think that's just for some schools in Japan! They part that I find the weirdest is why some Japanese students commit suicide just for having low or failing grades! Maybe because some families in Japan believe that low grades are a disgrace to the family....that could've triggered the suicidal act!!

Ninmaru, they do the same at my school and I live in Detroit, MI, USA. They do the same for absences too. I think it has less to do with strictness and more to do with protocol. Did that make sense?

Real Nice catch man

I've read in some German Manga-magazine Articles that Japanese schools have a society problem, there is a lot of mobbing going on among students, even in the Primary school stage. Students in Japan commit suicide very often. Lately I've read in an International newspaper, that a Japanese Teacher hanged himself because he couldn't prevent a student from commiting suicide and therefore has lost his honor as a teacher...
