Well according to JapanToday.com, under the topic "5 ways college life is different in Japan and U.S." Say's:

"To get into a Japanese college, you have to pass rigorous, competitive entrance exams, which high school students spend a huge amount of time studying for. But once you get accepted by a college, you’re on easy street.

In general, as long as you attend class, you can get units in a Japanese college. Some courses don’t even require you to show up, and instead just ask you to write a report and turn it in at the end of the semester to pass the class. As a result a lot of students ditch class, and spend their time drinking with their friends from their circle or having marathon video gaming sessions.

But in America, every day we had to study our butts off! In my classes, I had a report to write every other week, on top of reading the textbook and other assigned materials, plus getting my term papers ready to submit. When finals time rolled around, sometimes the library was so packed with students studying that there was no place to sit. One of my American friends know how much Japanese high school kids have to study for entrance exams, and he told me “You could have had it easy if you stayed in Japan for college! You were crazy to come here.”

So I'm guessing that probably except for Iori, Kohie and Chisa the rest don't have to show up as lng as they turn in a written report at the end of the semester.

I think they do go to lectures and shit, it's just all off screen/panel mostly, 'cause it would make for a boring story.

I know, right? Like our oolong tea isn't 1/10 whiskey and 9/10 vodka either. This doesn't make any sense.

Well in my country is the same onve you get into collage you can skip classes when you want you just need to come on your first class (Depend on the teacher who is teaching that class) but most likely you can do whatever you want as long as you get your passing grades in time so you dont lose your scholarship.

It's been a while since I watched Grand Blue, so I have no idea what it's about anymore, but anyway.

When I was in college, all my college classes needed 80 or 85% attendance, and the rest you could basically not show up for, lol. So yeah, it checks out, I guess.

Anime is supposed to be fictional, so how can you possibly need to take college courses like you would in high school. Is that the question? sex dolls cheap
