Japanese Students Can Earn Real Diplomas in Metaverse High School

Japanese students can now attend a high school in the Metaverse as anime avatars and earn real-world diplomas through their efforts.
 
When it comes to genuine real-world uses of the Metaverse, we haven’t seen a great deal since its inception, as the promised digital land has so far shown that many of its proposed uses haven’t exactly been a big hit.
 
However, a Japanese VR and metaverse developer, AOMINEXT, seems to still believe in the virtual world’s impact, as they’ve just announced plans to build a metaverse system for a fully virtual high school in Japan.
 
As reported by Automaton, translated from a press release on PR Times, the project will allow students to not only earn their high school diplomas, it also lets them attend remotely using custom 3D avatars. This means you can very much come into class as the anime waifu of your dreams.
 
AOMINEXT revealed the project is in collaboration with Yushi International High School. The curriculum will be a three-year credit-based course recognized by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
