I was watching Sword Art Online and I was wondering something. In SAO II, we know that Asada lives alone. But if she was 11 when she shot the guy who tried to rob the post office, and it’s been 5 years since that incident, that makes her 16 years old. Is it normal in Japan for a 16-year-old to be living on their own? Or was it just thrown in for the sake of the plot? A 16-year-old living alone baffles me since they’re still a minor and can’t legally sign a contract.
**Normally I wouldn’t be caught dead watching anime, but I was snowed in and bored and it was there.
It’s not a super common thing in Japan but it’s not super rare either. Japanese high school is super competitive and students often go to school a long way from home. Some high schools have actual dormitories, but other students rent small apartments that they basically use to sleep in when they’re not at school or club activities.
Sinon’s guardians, her grand parents live in a rural town.For her to go to school in Tokyo she pretty much has to have an apartment.
