Legal ages in Japan differ from those in America. In America, legal ages vary from state to state. In California, you take your first step into adulthood on your 16th birthday.

At 18, you have the right to vote, a right that allows you to experience the full benefit of US democracy. At 21, you are officially considered an adult, with the right to drink alcohol in public. In Japan, there’s an official day to celebrate the “coming” of 20, the day you become an adult.
