How to convert AoE to JST by hand

  1. Take the deadline time as written, for example 23:59.
  2. Add 12 hours to get UTC. 23:59 AoE is 11:59 UTC the next day.
  3. Add Japan Standard Time (JST)'s offset, UTC+9.
  4. If the result passes 24:00, subtract 24 hours and move to the next calendar day.

Japan does not use daylight saving time, so the gap between AoE and JST is 21 hours all year. JST and KST are the same time of day.
