| Being 18 means youre an adult in society. It doesnt necessarily make you an adult in mind. |

Lancehot said: First: Age of adulthood in Japan is technically 20. Second: If the currently airing series of Oregairu is to be believed, when girls leave highschool they instantly swap their would expose arse if they had one school uniform skirts for floor length ones. Thus it seems that the way you can tell if someone is 18, at least women, is that they suddenly become painfully aware of the sexual implications of their legs. I hate it when anime girls dress casually and most of the time you see them in long dresses with blazers. They dress like an old lady not that I hate how older women dress. |

I like when they dress meekly. |

| When a person loses that spark in their eyes and liveliness in life and just puts on a suit and makes money for a needless corporate society, you just know. |
| The women can get married at 16 The men at 18 So, yeah. Adults. |

CrimBlacklotus said: All the characters in the anime immediately know that certain character as an adult..? Yes, after the age of 18, people are technically an adult but it is more complicated than that. (At least in the U.S). For example, I live in the U.S and a lot of the people that are over the age of 18 can still pass for highschoolers. Mostly Asians though. I mean they are 18, but a lot of them still act like kids. Sure they have more responsibilities and are considered adults legally, a lot of people still refer to 18 year olds still as "kids". Heck most people that are 18 year olds and sometimes even older still look like kids. (Again this is more prevalent among Asians though) Do people in Japan age more quickly? Do people in Japan "look their age" more often? Act like kids? I don't believe that's a race thing. And yeah you make a good point, but most 18+ characters in animes do look adult enough to be considered adult. IRL that wouldn't be the case though, especially for asians. |

| More importantly is that they should feel responsible. It doesn't actually necessary to act as an adult. It is common to the age of 18-20... "Considered adults" |
| I think many nations considers 18 as the age of adulthood. Not only that, more adult transactions requires the age of 18. |
