@MacMeaties What makes you think she'll ever want to pull them back up? ( ¬‿¬)
@Tamerlane The ages are the same, but remember that the Japanese school year starts in the spring, while the US school years starts in the fall. So if you look at kids in 5th grade in December in both countries, the Japanese kids are more likely to be 11 because of that head start, while most of the US kids would still be 10. Fifth grade is mostly 10 - 11 year old kids.
