I’m Japanese. Let’s talk with me about Japanese history

>>3235296
Why does Saske turn chickenshit at the end?

Would you die for Japan?

My favorite last samurai is Tom Cruise.

sorry. I don't know sasuke very well.
I like JOJO

is this thread a JOJO reference?

>>3235296

Is that guy Hijikata from the Shinsengumi?

>>3235296
my favourite part of japanese history is when the Anola Gay dropped those bombs

I love japan. But, my life is the thing that my parents gave. Because I don't want to waste my life.However , when japanese is emergency,I want to do something to protect japanese history.

>>3235313
I would die for Japan

It's not.Hahahaha...
But.I like Jojo so you can talk about jojo.

Thoughts on America and our investment in your economy after ww2?

Yes. This guy is Hijikata Toshizou.
I love him. Don't you think he is a nice guy?

>>3235354
part power rankings?

Wait wait wait. I can't use my computer well, so I reply you very slowly OK?

So how do people generally feel about Oda Nobunaga today? I get the feeling he's treated as a charming underdog/Caesar-like character but also evil due to the whole monk thing. Also, what's up with the Taisho era? What's with Meiji riding the expel the barbarians wave then cozying up with the British? How insane was Emperor Taisho?

I like Tom Cruise, too.

Could you die for Japan‼‼???do you like japan?

What do you think about the swinging pendulum of anti Japanese sentiment in the US and how it seems to correspond to china's economic and military growth?

I don't know about economy well ....sorry.sorry.
But my parents don't like Abe...

Part power rankings??what do you mean?
Do you mean , which part do you like the best?

Sorry not good at english. I want western people to stop fucking japanese girls. I have not had sex.

>>3235414
yea. in order from best to worst

>>3235417
Why?

Oda Nobunaga?hmm
Do you know the famous haiku that compare him?

I do love the history of the Bakumatsu however

About abti Japanese sentiment
To tell the truth my parents lived in US very long.so I thought I knew American National character.but , i know that now.
They don't hate only japan, but they hate whole Yellow race,do they??

>>3235296
Why are the Western Samurai from the Sengoku period less common in media?

Date Masamune appears in much more films, manga, anime than Mori Motonari or Shimau Yoshihiro. But my impression is that Mori and Shimazu were better generals who fought in more battles.

>>3235296
Prove you're Japanese.

Chinese growth is very wonderful.but we cannot do nothing now. Because Japanese MOFA is very very bad. And Japanese constitution restricts mili tary. Chinese population is very very large. So I think there are many bad Chinese and there are many good Chinese.

>>3235484
If he's not Japanese, he's got the way they type english down to a T.

Do you consider Japanese culture to be moreso evolved than the rest of the planet?

Are there cultures you envy or admire?

What are your favorite virtues?

>>3235463
It has its roots in the fact that in the interior period, the Japanese were doing what China is now, selling cheap labor in order to entice American companies to outsource production. When japan's infrastructure was destroyed during ww2, most notably the fire bombing of Tokyo, they reinvested in tech mainly, thus avoiding the conflict with American industry. Americans aren't a hivemind, and in my experience, the average American opinion of Japan is very positive

How accurate is ryu ga gotoku 0 portrail of 1980s Japan?

About Japanese ethnicity
Most Japanese take peace for granted.aren't interested in World situation.
Most young Japanese aren't interested in religion.
This is the biggest reason that there is peace in japan.( my house ; shintou and buddhism

Date Masamune was one eyed and he was very very fasionable . (His clothes was drop of water‼‼‼) and he was very like men of today.(speech abd behavior)such man is liked by more young Japanese girl....unfortunately
By the way I love Ishida Mitsunari 石田三成

That's an interesting question, especially since the Shimazu managed to maintain a lot of their autonomy, especially with their outlying castles (which was expressly forbidden by the Shogunate)

>>3235717
The stereotype of Japanese is that they're incredibly hard-working.

My parents and teachers would sometimes tell me about the Japanese kids who didn't get Saturday off, when I whined about school.

Also, Japanese tourists take a very large amount of pictures.

>>3235745
Are Catholic schools popular/common in Japan?
I'm not really sure if this thread is serious or just shitposting.

I know him‼‼I heard about him from my father.
He was a little very samurai, wasn't he?I think he was great, but needs flexible thinking, too.I think.

Yes.Mainly private school.Im not sure, but I think there are more Catholic schools than Protestant.
Mission School of public are few , i think.

>>3235779
Wait what really? I showed my girlfriend (also Japanese) that image and she wouldn't speak to me for the rest of the day.

First ,do you know the idea of shinto?shinto is polytheism.it is that each god stay in all things in the nature.in idea of shinto,gods stay in things that we use everydays.so, we cherish our own things.we were taught that the god is in each grain of rice when we were children.

OP, I have a few questions for you.

First, how much do you study about the world's history in Japan? Per example, here in Europe, history lessons were so extremely focused on Europe, and I don't remember myself stuying at school something about China or Japan until the second world war lessons. Apart from the Japanese history, which I have nowadays a lot of interest in, do you study something about us us?

Secondly, how is it actually the dayly life of a Japanese student? I'd like you to tell me everything you can, because it should be really different from any representation in anime/manga.

Thanks in advance)))

I recently learned about the Heikegani, a crab species that has a face on its back because fishermen would throw caught crabs that seemed to have a face back in the water to honor the fallen that fought in a naval battle in the area. As a result the crabs evolved to have faces on their backs.
Interesting stuff, any more strange tales like this?

an accurate ukiyo drawing summarising the Russo-Japanese war (colorised)

2 question for you, OP.

1. Since Japan is largely racially homogeneous with few immigrants living there, do you harbor a hostile feeling towards them in the sense of "who are they, they don't belong here, they're not us" or are you delighted that there are foreigners in Japan? Do you find joy in interacting with them? What's the societal reaction towards them overall? And would you travel overseas to explore all the world's culture, if you could?

2. Is Japan mostly a conservative society akin to Vietnam or China with no-nos towards homosexuality and bisexuality, etc..

Hello! I am a Chinese!
When i was young my mother told me a story about the origin of Japan. The first emperor of China Qin Shi Huang sent a bunch of people to Japan to find an potion for immortality, and then those people sent there did not find the potion for immortality.

Because they were scared Qin Shi Huang would be angry and kill them they stayed in Japan. It actually makes sense to me because the time period lines up with the End of the Jomon period. What do you think about this story?

I hope you have a nice day!

>>3237692
I am not OP but I think the story that you were told is plausible, because I remember something about Japan having a Chinese origin. If you watch the video "History of Japan" by Bill Wurtz, you can see the first settlers coming via the Korean peninsula. I don't know if that is correct information or something that has happened in real life, but I think if people ever walk to Japan back then, they would go through the Korean peninsula.

>>3237707
yeah i mean it's a very common legend amongst the Chinese. It makes sense to me considering how fucking OBSESSED with immortality my n-word Qin Shi Huang was. It's a pretty fucking cool origin story tho

Why did Ishida Mitsunari insult and ignore Shimazu Yoshihiro before Sekigahara and preferred to listen to Sakon Shima instead? Yoshihiro was probably the best living general in Japan at the time, wasn't he? And Ishida Mitsunari who oversaw the Korean invasions knew full well his capabilities.

Wouldn't it be better to listen to his most experienced ally?

>>3240538
Best question in this thread.

>>3240538
Mitsunari ignored Shimazu's suggestion of a night raid?
It says that Mitsunari thought that Ieyasu was too smart not to be prepared for a night attack.
Anyway, it seems like that this whole story was made up during the Edo period to make Mitsunari look like an Incompetent prick.

did we ever get a picture?

Are you going to breed a Japanese girl to get that birth rate up

>>3240548
>Anyway, it seems like that this whole story was made up during the Edo period to make Mitsunari look like an Incompetent prick.

Ah, that makes sense. Ishida would be crazy to completely ignore and insult someone like Yoshihiro. Because even if he won the battle, there would be bad blood between them and most of Shimazu's soldiers were safe far away in Satsuma under the capable hands of Yoshihisa.
Are there more myths created to smear the reputation of Ishida and other samurai?

>>3240510

>>3240510
In the Edo period, what was the status of land aristocracy vs court aristocracy? How did super powerful tozama daimyos such as Maeda or Shimazu compare to the fudai daimyo or the court nobles?

>>3240553
I cannot come up with any specific myths created during the Edo Period,
but Mitsunari had been seen as a villain who caused the end of the Toyotomi with his imcompetence and arrogance during the Edo period,
but nowadays he is seen as more like a loyal and noble figure.

The court aristocracy(kuge) had no actual power. It says the highest ranked Kuge just had the revenue of 1000-2000goku at maximum.

How do you view your current armed forces compared to the former Imperial armed forces?

From what I have read, the Japanese forces that fought against the Mongols were more capable than traditionally thought.

Why are the commanders of that era not more famous?

Japan manages to deal with Yi Sun-sin and his turtle ships meaning their navy and supplies are good. How does the Imjin War go then?
