How is the japanese school system?

| I've always been surrounded by the stereotype that the japanese always study 24/7 and love school, and that they barely have time for themselves due to school, but if that were the case, how would be Japan home to some of the biggest entertainment industries in the world? It's so puzzling to me, due that my country has a chill school system and what not.
Also, at what hour do they leave school? That interests me too


| JP school - average above difficulty, no free time except for school clubs which can either be chill or taxing af.
JP school during last years - very hard, no free time, everyone studies for national exams.
university - very chill barely anyone attends classes, everyone drinks or is doing stuff in their circles.
full time job - very very hard, almost no free time. Everyone hates this part but without it country wouldn't run as smooth as it is now.


| High schools typically begin at 8:30. After osoji (cleaning) and the afternoon homeroom meeting, or at 3:30 PM, students are free to attend extracurricular activities.


| Japanese schools are allegedly hellish and ridiculously strict. I've heard Japan has a shockingly high rate of young suicides because of their schools.

I disagree, it wouldn't add up for the amount of media that country produces. It wouldn't make sense why it exists. Especially when you mention the full time job section in life. Who the hell is buying all the jrpgs that never leave the country? I very much doubt its just minors and shut ins.


| >>374898 that's exactly what I was thinking, it doesn't make sense (op here)


| >>375460 school kids with chill or no clubs, university students, part-timers, hikikomori. These are ones that consume the most media.
