So. I heard if Japanese young adults don't get into university they kill themselves.

Failed to get in several times and have no plans of becoming an hero, but I'm just wondering if this is actually true most of the time? Are there those that don't and keep on trying? My only indication there aren't is the plot of Love Hina, and a cartoon isn't much to go on...

Yes, it's common for people to move to Tokyo and end up living in cheap apartments, attempting the entrance exams every year. Eventually they either become NEETs, Hikki's, or commit Seppuku.

A combination the humiliation of failing, and the pressure from society and parents is what leads them to suicide.

In short, they just want to take it easy, but they can't.

Also, it's not like japan is any different than here when it comes to find a job without any good degree.

>> No.10223284

There are plenty of jobs available that don't require a degree. If every job required a degree, society would collapse, we simply do not have that many people who are smart enough to succeed in college.

You can only become a societal parasite working for the government, sitting at a desk, not doing any real work if you go to university. If you're not clever or hard-working you've got no choice, but otherwise you'll make it just fine regardless.

It's important that there's a way to legitimatize lazy dumbasses, because that's nearly everyone nowadays. Imagine if these people had to actually demonstrate having work ethic and skills. So we have a document for that instead.

If you live in Japan then your options are limited.

I decided not to go to university, but luckily I live in the U.S and there's tons of rural land so I just saved up a couple thousand dollars, bought a few acres, and setup a yurt on my land since I couldn't afford to hire contractors to build a cabin.

Now I just live in my little yurt with a laptop and a wifi connection and I go hunting when I need food. You can't do this sort of thing in Japan since the population density is too high, there's not much wilderness left for them to live in. If you don't go to university then you really are screwed and there's probably not many other options for you in Japan.

Yurts are tiny little houses that look like this. The Mongolian nomads used them a lot.

They only cost about $1,000 - $2,000 to buy and then you just assemble it on your land in a couple hours.
