    Yeah, I think the closest we'd get are the terrible Type-0 uniforms... I've never understood the whole thematic trope of 'school' that alot of anime and JRPGs go for. Valkyria Chronicles is a great example... the first game was a gem, all of it's sequels bloody school stories. Type-0, an entire nation is just a big school. VIII, the world is policed by schools! Attack on Titan has a gag series... around a school setting. The list goes on! It's like the Japanese have all their best memories... in school, and are constantly trying to relive that time through their media.

    That's exactly the truth. High school is the last time that many Japanese feel personal freedom; the last time when they can still change the path they're on. It's no surprise that a lot of them idolize the experience.
