its doesnt specify his actualy age but we assume ryou isn't exactly 20. since the term used is "almost 12 years younger" meaning there's a less than or nearly 12 year age gap. and highschool seniors are like 17-19 years old so it makes sense if you dont fixate the age
in japan they use a different aging system. the day they were born and the beginning of the new year usually make them two years older.
for example in the US if you are born on the first of january a single year adds each time january 1st passes by. but if you are from japan and born on january first you are already two - one year for the day you are born and another for the new year (i apologize if this is confusing. in short the bottom was most likely close to 18 for the US but 20 for japan)
ahh, okay thank you!
thank you!! that makes sense
Doesn’t that mean he’s nearly 19? If he’s born a year old and the year that he turns 18 has started(as in he’s nearly 18) then he would be 18+1=19 years old and since the story has a 12 years or less age gap then he would have to have started the year he turns 19(I.e. nearly 19 yo) bcus 19+1=20.
was i the only one confused about the age of the uke? the same was 32 and he said the uke was almost 12 years younger which would make him like 20ish, but still in high school? did i miss something i’m just genuinely confused
