Yes, but he also became "aware" of the Dark Hour since the Moonlight Bridge Incident, so he's been experiencing the Dark Hour for years. It's nothing unusual to him, which unnerves SEES since it's a very unusual thing.
Also I like to think the Dark Hour is synchronous with the rest of the world, so instead of it being a timezone thing (which wouldn't make sense), the Dark Hour just occurs during the day in other timezones. Midnight JST is 8 AM PST, so imagine some kid on the East Coast in class where every day near lunch, inexplicably for one hour everyone else turns into coffins, water turns into blood, and rarely silhouetted monsters stalk his school. And nobody else can understand, nor can he get any answers because he's a continent away.
