It does though sometimes.

also with it being Halloween and all lets make this a ww2 warcrimes horror threads

There is an anime where a modern Japanese destroyer is sent back to the battle of midway and the crew are forced to grapple with the dilemma of whether or not to help Japan win or not. I think they end up deciding to avoid the Pacific theater completely but instead go to Europe and use cruise missiles to kill Hitler so that the war ends more quickly.

>After the door of the building was blown off we saw a daycare-full of small children, around 500; all with small hands in the air. Even Dirlewanger's own people called him a butcher; he ordered to kill them all. The shots were fired, but he requested his men to save the ammo and finish them off by rifle-butts and bayonets. Blood and brain matter flowed in streams down the stairs.
The Wola Massacre alone justifies Dresden.

Nothing wrong with killing chinese

that is a wise marketing strategy, since the USA will give their jap cartoon much revenue

There's a pretty hilarious Japanese alternate history anime called Deep Blue Fleet. The japs pretty much singlehandedly fight off the allies and the axis all on their own. And they're depicted as godlike flawless human beings, incapable of doing wrong. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konpeki_no_Kantai

That central image is photoshopped by the way.

t. beheading pro

>What is Grave of the Fireflies

pls

But they just released the best Japanese WW2 film last year.

Did they photoshop a chopped off head onto the decapitated body?

I can see the subway intro already

Mom’s spaghetti

Nervous, but calm and ready

Decap edits are literally the easiest thing you can do in Photoshop.
That image doesn't make sense. Why would the Japanese leave her hands free and not tied behind her back? Even dumb fucking favelados know to restrain their victims. The mechanics don't hold up. Decapitation victims usually lose consciousness within seconds of the arteries being severed in the neck, which leads to relaxation of facial muscles, which is clearly not seen in the OP image.

They do cover WWII in a serious light.

Chinese are more akin to insects

Both take place in Japan, and focus on Japanese people. Their suffering, or whatever. There's like nothing about the fucking WAR itself.

Zipperheads still had it coming.

>focus on Japanese people
Gee of course, I mean what do you expect?

call me when Hollywood makes a movie about American war crimes seen trough the eyes of the Vietnamese

Not to mention i don't think any camera at the time could take such a clear photo of a beheading midswing.

Wow, that sounds really stupid. The war in the Pacific continued after Germany fell. Killing Hitler would do nothing to the timeline.

How bout focus on a story of Japanese soldiers in Asia?

America has made tons of Vietnam vids from American perspective that shows them as monsters.

Virtually every Vietnam movie depicts the war in a negative light.

Not very logical of you. Americans shouldn't collectively be ridiculed because of the actions of Donald Trump, so 22,000+ people shouldn't be killed because of the actions of Dirlewanger.

because they were. The Japanese were merely trying to civilise the chink beast but they choose to destroy themselves with communism

The Cockpit.

right, civilize the chink beast by weakening the KMT so that the communists win in the end.

fucking brilliant.

One shred of evidence please

>tfw no one will ever make a kino about the Imperial Japanese soldiers forcefully conscripted into the French army to put down Viet Minh agitators

These are made purely by those of whom had never directly faced the situation outside (if at all) their respective countries.

Ex IJA on the other hand are brutally honest in their thoughts, even if faced by a direct opposition to their ideals.

Before the soldier that participated in the Nanjing masssacre died of old age, a sole Chinese historiographer made his mission to document and record all personal accounts of the

The veterans were of course, brutally honest. Of what counts in Japanese society, modesty comes before truth. To ignore or completely disregard the events are the most commom reactions of the new Japanese generation.

I suggest you all to read Showa, a history of Japan. The author doesn’t mince words about what he experienced.

>Not a single mention of the Anne Frank anime
wtf guys?
There's an Isekai manga called Zipang about a modern JSDF naval ship ending up in WW2 and being torn about who to support

delete this

Shigeru Mizuki was the real deal.

Forgot to add. The author of the Manga was a soldier during the very late stages of the war. His experience may differ to a fresh recruit policing in Colonial Korea or as a trooper during the Sino Japanese Wars. Shigeru Mizuki only saw the results of those conflicts.

Rude

He’s 92 years old Mangaka with only one arm. My kind of Idol

he also bragged about living longer and healthier because he took so many naps, as opposed to his contemporary manga authors like Tezuka.

Deep Blue Fleet is totally insane. Here's the part where the Japanese navy uses fucking lasers as anti aircraft guns, in the early 1940s
youtu.be/LaD0of0ISUY

Kek that’s super edgy

>attack the KMT
>thereby strengthening the CCP

what did the IJA mean by this?

Tezuka sorta deserved it desu

>Ahoy!

Probably a chink propaganda

Was, he died recently.

so are you with isis or something? real talk

>the very late stages of the war.
He was drafted in 1942, there was plenty of war left.

God damn. I knew someone was going to tell me eventually. He ate lots of McDonald’s so it’s ok.

No, I just browsed a lot of goreporn sites back in the day.

well, that depends on when you start counting. if you start counting during the korean and manchuria annexation then no. if you count when the US joined and officially made it the pacific war then yeah he joined midway.

Right. I was saying in terms of the Japanese military actions as a whole, but it seems a bit misleading.

Yeah in exactly 1 month from today he'll have been dead for 2 years. Besides being a historian, he also pretty much single-handedly revived Japanese cultural interest in the supernatural elements of the country's mythology.

I was counting in terms of 1939 when it more or less officially went from a series of conflicts to WW2.

wanted to post this one but the size was too big and also no sound

God shes so cute.

There's is an interview doc about a stranded unit that resorted to cannibalism.

"First squad: the moment" of truth has nice approach to WW2 eastern front. Too bad its main plot is focused around Russian X-men fighting Teutonic knight zombies

But thats the best part.

High speed photography has existed since 1878, retard.

This is a photo of the Trinity nuclear test in 1945 just 16 milliseconds after detonation.

I'm sure the average IJA soldier was lugging around one of these bad boys just for the weekly game of "chop the chink".

I figured you would try saying some stupid shit like this.

So here's a photo from the same period capturing 16" shells from the USS Missouri in flight at 2,500 ft/s using common and commercially available cameras used by military journalists.

Here's some RP-3 rockets fired from a Hawker Typhoon in 1945, taken by a piece of shit gun camera

but were those cameras around in the late 30's when the jappos were at their most murdery in china? since the photo in question is supposedly from nanking, and camera tech in particular advanced quite fast during the war.
furthermore, would the japanese have access to the same quality cameras?

Cameras could capture fast moving objects since the 1870s.

Here's a Stokes Mortar shell captured in flight at 700 ft/s in 1918.

>22,000+ people
G*rms arent people

Because that never happened. Commie propaganda

Japanese ww2 ace anime fucking WHEN

Why is the shell at a wonky angle like that?

Letters from Iwo Jima

They don't teach it in-depth in school. Even at the Atomic Bomb museum in Hiroshima the exhibits about the war talk about "protecting" Korea and China and make it sound like the Japanese were being attacked and defending themselves.

Full metal jacket

It means the war in Europe ends as early as possible so that more resources can be focused on the war in the Pacific.
