"As you may have noticed, most of the school-state's activities occur during nightly hours. In fact, Kakurenbo Gakuen is classified as a nocturnal state. Schooling activities, however, occur during the day as most school-states' activities do (mainly for scheduling purposes). We hope you enjoy your time here, and are happy to spend the next 4 years of your life in our care."

p.s whenever a teenager reaches high school, they are sent off to live in a school-state. School-states are exactly how they sound...schools with their own government (and, in this case, army). They are self-standing, with alliances forming every now and then. They depend on GPA ratings for head government money (so it's important that the students receive high grades, or the school-state doesn't get money to fund whatever they need.) The students also live in territory range.

Hope you find this interesting. It's the basis for which Kakurenbo's storyline revolves around.
