They do! They're based on Western naval uniforms.

Most public and private high schools and junior highs in Japan require students to wear a uniform, but it's a bit more plain than what you see in anime. The color scheme is more conservative, for one. One of the freedoms students get to enjoy when they enter college is liberation from the uniform. http://www.kodairanishi-h.metro.tokyo.jp/fuzoku/seifuku.html http://www.seihuku-zukan.com/zukan/kt/tk/197/6.jpg http://www.seihuku-zukan.com/zukan/kt/tk/35/2.jpg http://www.seihuku-zukan.com/zukan/kt/tk/223/2.jpg The sailor suits that you see for girls in older anime has been out of style for a while, but they are still around. The girls skirt has been above knee short for the past 15-20 years, but the skirt length in most anime is very exaggerated.

I'm thinking about visiting Japan when I get done with school

I'm thinking about visiting Japan when I get done with school?
I heard it's beautiful over there. I'm still in high school now and I'm going to college, so it's still a long way away from now. But is there anything particular I should know about their culture before I go? I don't want to seem like a total idiot when I go there, and not know anything about them. So enlighten me.

Unless you're Japanese it won't matter much. As a society, they tend to be very racist and xenophobic. Most will probably be polite to you, but that's about it. Even people that have lived there for years will still be treated as though they're just tourists if they aren't Japanese. I'd suggest you just learn their greeting customs, and if you don't speak Japanese, some basic phrases that you can see yourself needing. And no, I don't hate the Japanese. This is just the way it is. The United Nations even did a study on Japanese xenophobia. "In 2005, a United Nations special rapporteur on racism and xenophobia expressed concerns about "deep and profound" racism in Japan and insufficient government recognition of the problem.

Visiting a country means that you want to see the country and know about it , going to a country you know about , will take away the fun and adventure of it.

Japanese School Bags

Japanese School Bags?
I've been trying to find a site or someplace I can purchase a authentic Japanese school bag/brief case. You see them alot in anime or in general japan school pictures. Usually they are black or brown leather bags (looks alot like a laptop bag), that have a handle on top and can be converted to a backpack style for carry on your back. I can't find anywhere that sells them, that will ship to the USA, where the goods are actually authentic. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! -Dzero I've already searched the internet for bags, none of the places I've found ship to the USA. eBay, doesn't seem to turn anything up either.

Drunken fist is a chinese style of kung fu. More aptly today, it is a form in the wushu curriculum. However, I doubt you will find an abundance of schools in Japan. That doesn't mean that you won't, however, as it is a Chinese are and not Japanese, you may not find one very easily.

can a english speaking child immigrate to japan and learn japanese for free in a public school

can a english speaking child immigrate to japan and learn japanese for free in a public school?
this question is for a research paper i am doing. i want to know if an english speaking child can go to a public school and learn japanese for free, as part of his/her curriculum? or do they practice total immersion where it is up to the parents and dedication of the child to learn japanese so they can be a productive part of society.

Japanese schools now are teaching more and more English to Japanese children at school. But I would say it is not likely for school to offer Japanese education to English speaking children. As long as the child is a legal resident of Japan, he/she can go to public school and take all the classes, and Japanese IS one of the requirements all the children have to take. But it is not likely for the child to be able to keep up with any of the classes without knowing any Japanese Or it's not like for schools to offer any kind of tutoring or slow down classes for him/her. If the child is young, he/she will pick up Japanese quickly and will be able to keep up with classes eventually with his/her natural ability. But if he/she are a little older and need to learn all the classes fairy soon, then it's parents or the child responsibility to find tutor or private language school to study Japanese on his/her own.
