[And there we go. Even without any further details given, Shinjiro's reaction makes it overwhelmingly clear that he isn't just talking about recently moving here from Japan. Thank goodness that he wasn't wrong!]
I wasn't completely sure, but I'm glad I asked! There aren't too many of us, so we need to stick together no matter what. What name do you use on the forum, Aragaki?
[He's keeping his voice a bit soft just in case someone overhears them, but it's a welcome relief to see that this guy also seems to find some solace in the fact that he doesn't need to put up a front. Speaking of, he should probably be using Shinjiro's given name instead of calling him Aragaki at school, but hey.]
Still, it's no wonder you're struggling in school. Math and essays aren't that different from Japan, but I've been studying like crazy to catch up on American history and stuff.
