In all honesty, I usually respond with "maybe not, but you're

The uniforms have nothing to do with Japans own military past. And they
do not represent Japanese culture either. But, Japan established its
education system in the eighteen seventies [1870s]. At that time Japan
looked to countries like Germany, France, and Britain for ideas. So today,
Japanese school uniforms still model those old ideas. This concerns many
