That's not a big deal faggot.

>>154024947
Not surprised that a Jap WW2 self-pity story would do well.

Another dishonest flick where the japs pretend to be the victims of WW2

>>154024947
What's this movie about?

>>154025185
The hardships faced by the Japanese people during WW2.

>>154024947
Good for it. Just because a movie is successful doesn't mean other movies can't be. I'm glad for both of them.

>>154025175
Just like american women pretend to be the primary victims of war. Last I checked, USA is the one bullying other countries.

>>154025136
>>154025175
How likely is it that these posts came from Americans?

>>154025293
87%

>>154025293
I'm not from America, nor from a country on the "winning" side but I think japs feeling victimized over WW2 is fucking bulshit.

>>154025397
Just because the country's leaders decided to engage in war (regardless of which side they're supporting), doesn't mean the people of the country deserve to go through that.

Is this the beginning of the MAPPA era?

>>154025397
Holding the average Joe accountable for what the government and military did is kind of dumb.

>>154025531
No, their show this season is flopping hard.

>>154025531
MAPPA will not be getting much from this film and Yuri on Ice

>>154024947
Did this have a big marketing campaign considering it was crowd funded?
also it opens in the september in the US and other countries around june, I think I read it already started screening in mexico

>>154025737
No, but since it started winning many awards people noticed. They had to triple screenings, I think it got like 220 or something, started with 70.

>Japanese people actually think they're the good guys in WW2 and that they fought to free Asia from colonialism

>>154025832
Who are you quoting?

>>154025737
It had like no marketing and opened to a small 47 million weekend on 63 screens. Got popular by word of mouth and winning big awards. Eventually expanded to 200 screens by its 8th weekend and 300 screens by its 13th weekend.

>Katabuchi asked Anno if he had seen In This Corner of the World, and Anno replied, "I saw it. What a woman, doing nothing. I wanted to strangle her.

It's just sad japanese schools omit so much of their war crimes in WW2.
Kouno probably never even learned about Nanking or Unit 731 because if she did I doubt she draws this manga.

>>154025865
japanese mentality

Seriously, fuck them. Germany feels shame for the nazi stuff, Americans feel shame for the slavery and the japanese camps during WWII (well, not right now...). But Japs always go DID NOTHING WRONG when they talk about WWII just because they experienced the bomb. Fuck those guys,

>>154025823
It won the hiroshima peace award so I guess the government is promoting it to some extent?

>>154025175
I'm much more bothered by the fact that, while many of innocent people did die for no reason, they never portray the military on a negative note.
They won't admit the country they fought for is capable of such atrocities. I'm tired of that whinning.

>>154025956
Can you post some quotes from real Japanese saying that their government did nothing wrong in WW2? Knowing about your ancestor's past doesn't necessarily mean shaming yourself over it like most Americans with white guilt do like yourself for example. Japanese history text books do have and acknowledge shit like Nankin.

>another blame the japs thread

Wew, japan's surrender was a strategic move, notice how their emperor wasn't killed and their culture wasn't that badly influenced since the jap army is strong as fuck.

>>154026102
>Japanese history text books do have and acknowledge shit like Nankin

Only textbooks published in the last 20 years do this and only very briefly and typically using very non-inflammatory language when describing the events.

>>154026224
Really? Which books? Provide some examples.

>>154026200
>68 civilians killed

Truly these people are soulless animals. I don't feel bad about the nukes now.

>Nakayama feels he and the LDP group he heads played a key role in getting the descriptions of the “comfort women,” the euphemism Japan used for the wartime sex slaves for its army, deleted from most junior high school history books.

>“Now few textbooks carry words like ‘military comfort women’ or that the women were ‘forcibly taken’ (to the frontline brothels). I think that’s good,”

>>154026385
how many civilians did those nukes kill? :^)

>>154026920
Not enough to replace those countless of American lives.

I don't know, whoever made that picture seems to have counted them.
