Do you think americans would still defeat japan without cheating by dropping jewish superbombs?
Every Japanese officer who wasn’t delusional or stupid knew the war was fucked less than 6 months after Pearl Harbor
>>223886237They would have kept firebombing them. How is that better?
>>223886237Americans taught J*ps to fight, clearly they were dishonorable and that was a mistake.
>>223886237Yes. Unironically fucking yes. Without a fucking doubt. We already destroyed their economy with weeks of firebombs that turned into a torrential fire storm weeks before the Kellogg's Rice Crispy Treats were dropped.
>>223886237How do the Japanese make this without cringing to death? What is their secret?
>>223886332Extreme Main Character Syndrome.
>>223886342Superiority breeds jealousy
>>223886237Why do people downplay Japanese performance in WW2? Their victories in Indonesia, Philippines and Indochina were very impressive. Like, I’ve never seen anyone impressed with an Asian country who only industrialized in like 1850s dog walking the Brits, French and Dutch in a very short amount of time.
>>223886606Their only impressive achievement was taking Singapore, other than that it was beating colonial dregs whose mother countries had already been occupied by Germany until it was time for the nonstop curbstomping we gave them for the entire Pacific War
>>223886332By seeing americans do the exact same shit like Indiana Jones
>>223886703The British army in Malaya was mostly second string jeets (the first string jeets were in the Mediterranean). Anyone could have beaten them
>>223886237there would've been so much more death but yes. it's a tired point but the atom bombs prevented more death than they caused and it's not even close
>>223886237Americans cheated with codebreakers the nukes were just kinetic sanctions
>>223886237>secret move is walking up to him and slicing him with your sword
>>223886237watch Red Sun if you like seeing a samurai carve cowboys up
>>223886237wouldn't the halved bullet still hit him?
>>223888150Twice.
>>223886332>without cringing to death?This is exactly what's wrong with modern cinema. Everything is ironic and self aware out of pure terror of being labeled "cringe".I'll take sincere cringe over detached soulless bullshit any day.
>>223886273Without sounding mad prove them wrong.
>>223886237By that point Germany had surrendered so it would have gotten double teamed by America and the Soviet Union
>>223886237>have superhuman ability to cut bulletsHe could've just sliced his gun to shreds and not killed him. Lethal force is pointless when you're that insanely overpowered.
>>22388638190s anime feels like it was made by entirely different people who made 2000s onward anime. It's such a weird feeling comparing the two, it's hard to believe that's the same industry.
>>223888230The real reason why we nuked them was because we wanted to end the war ASAP so the Soviets couldn't grab any land. Imagine an Imperial Japan version of North Korea still being a pain in the ass to this day if that happened.
>>223886237We didn't even need to drop the bombs to win.
>>223888189I don't because there's still an endless amount of people who play being idiots straight. It's like if you had to choose between 2000s comedy where the joke is everyone is retarded and playing out poopy-peepy jokes straight like Dumb and Dumber or ironic comedy like Sealab 2020 or Xavier Renegade Angel I'm picking the latter. I'll even take slapstick or gag humor over sincerely playing an idiot for reactions.
>>223886237what the fuck lol
>>223888216The Emperor was mocking what Sugiyama was saying by pointing out that the ocean was much larger than China and therefore the war there would be even slower than in China contrary to what the general assured him
>>223886606Pretty much everyone acknowledges Japan did well when they had the element of surprise. The Battle of the Philippines ('41–'42) still stands as our worst defeat in our nation's military history.It's just that period was ~9.1% of the war. Of course people are going to think of the other ~90.9% of the war where it was relatively one-sided.
>>223888347The Philippines campaign was fairly poorly handled by the Japanese, it took so long they had to pull the top level forces out to take the real objective in Dutch Indochina and Manila took so long to become accessible to the Japanese that by the time it was up and running the US had already consolidated its forces for the campaign at Guadalcanal.
>>223888312Okay you're right that irony works well in comedy but I absolutely love sincere cringe in action movies.
>>223886237The madmen would've made the Allies kill them all if they didn't get nuked. It was an act of mercy.
>>223888382That doesn't mean it isn't the worst defeat in America's military history. Largest surrender of U.S. forces in history as well.>>223888347Correction, it was actually 11.28%. 7 December 1941 – 8 May 1942. 152 days. 7 December 1941 – 15 August 1945 was 1,347 days.Still roughly 1/10th.
>>223886237Even without the nukes we firebombed the shit out of Tokyo and we still had guys like the 77th Infantry Division which would've cleaned house in any Japanese city
>>223886332It's anime, what did you expect? Most anime is fairly complimentary toward Americans too. Shit like >>223886381 or GATE is far more embarrassing.>>223888150The sword (magically) changed the bullet halves trajectory.
The Japanese are insane when it comes to their cope about samurai and WW2.
>>223886606Most people dont care that much for history, Imperial Japan pulled off some pretty insane early victories before we started clearing them out of the Pacific and the vast majority of their forces were in China and the Chinese get almost completely ignored in modern ww2 media
>>223888523it inspired them to make movies about a giant radioactive lizard that destroys cities
>>223888546No, they got "inspired" by Beast from 20000 Fathoms.
>>223888523Zatoichi has 26+ films and it regularly shits on the samurai as crooked cops who abused the common folk.
>>223886237>Do you think the country that had over 100 aircraft carriers commissioned during 1945 would beat a country the size of california that had no ships remaining?Only the essex class alone would have been enough to take over the entire world at that stage
