Planes Collide And Explode At Haneda Airport
Adding injury to injury, the plane hit was heading to rescue earthquake victims.
You’re absolutely right, it’s definitely not Japan’s year so far.
Japan is not having a good year already.

LIVE Earthquake Monitor | Tracking Real-time Global Seismic
Sadly I found no time when it focused on Japan that just had a 7.6 earthquake and is experiencing tsunamis right now.

Absofuckinglutely NOT!
Bad Japan. Sit in a corner and think about what you’ve done.
Edit: Roiland was cleared, why not just make more real R&M?
Were the Atomic Bombings of Japan Necessary?
I’ve always thought it was a horrific decision, but not at all because of the immediate effects or massive death and destruction they caused in Japan….they fucked around and found out and deserved everything they got (and I was unaware the Russian Manchurian offensive timing, but it’s even more reason to not drop a second bomb or even a first if we knew it was coming).
I think it was horrific because we had no idea what the long term effects of even minimal fallout might be, and in fall/winter the jet stream runs from Japan directly to the highly populated West coast (which we knew well thanks to balloon bombs), so some portion of the fallout was guaranteed to fall on millions of US citizens. We lucked out that it wasn’t deadly a year later, and didn’t cause horrible birth defects with near zero exposure…we had no concrete idea at the time though just guesses, and still don’t have a clear idea of how much it contributed to higher cancer rates in the US.
Keep in mind, we had no idea what discussions the Japanese were having amongst themselves , so no idea how effective our bombs nor the Manchurian offensive were at persuading them to surrender. Hindsight is 2020, but at the time we were flying blind.
The uncertain risk there of possibly killing millions of ourselves or gimping or sterilizing or even Cronenberging entire future generations for the comparatively minimal convenience of not using conventional bombs, to me, is no where near worth it. There were just too many unanswered questions about too many factors. I’m sure the soldiers fighting at the time would feel differently.
*promote the history lesson, learned some new stuff!
Car commercial that may make you choke up just a bit
Was there really a commercial in Japan that ran for more than 3 minutes on TV? I'm used to seeing shorter 15-30 second videos in the States. The car commercials that I usually see are unappealing and never have a any sort of positive impact on me. In fact many make me dislike the company for how they are attempting to manipulate the viewer. Not saying i'd be more inclined to buy a Toyota after watching this but i payed attention and i enjoyed it. So i guess they succeeded with me in some way.

The Army Needs To Explain
Perhaps you recall that Japan wasn’t the only enemy in WW2.
I think most would say the US army was the deciding factor in winning most major battles and the war in Europe.
True, they didn’t do it alone, but they did the lions share of successful fighting from my understanding. Of course, my history teachers were biased.
Also, Kuwait….again, with help from other branches.
There are other, less clear cut examples but that should answer the question I hope.
Just curious (as an uninformed Canadian), what war the US Army (not the Navy, not the USAF, the Army) can really claimed it won in a century? Just leave after wrecking a country into ruins is not winning by definition (Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc.), looking for a clear "Mission Accomplished"?
Like, I'd call the USAF dropping of the H Bomb won WWII, it got Japan to surrender, treaty signed, etc. That's Mission Accomplished to me.

Voltes V: Legacy: The world is under attack | MEGA TRAILER
FYI: The "5 vehicles combine into a giant robot" concept was a very popular cartoon concept in Japanese animes WELL BEFORE Voltron. The later ones got even more than 5 members, went up to 15 and was the most outrageous of the concept (adapted into the latter Vechicle Team Voltron in Western media) iirc .
Voltes V was first aired in '77. While the original Lions Voltron came out years LATER in the mid-'80s. So can't claim plagiarism.
This is properly licensed (by TOEI Japan) trailer made by a Philippines studio, so it's legitimate and not fan-made.
"Voltes V" ws the immediate followup of "Combattler V"
I grew up with these cartoons in their original Japanese version but dubbed into Cantonese while I was in Hong Kong.
Some Wikis of the Japanese animes:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltes_V
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beast_King_GoLion
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armored_Fleet_Dairugger_XV
So the Philippines doesn’t believe in copyright?
This is pure plagiarism of Voltron.
Godzilla vs. Gigan Rex
There's this book by a Wall Street Journal reporter, called "Wrong About Japan"--and in one sequence, he asks the creator of Godzilla (a monster created by a nuclear accident/testing, who rolls around destroying...Japanese cities, even if inadvertently)---about it's relationship to WW-II and being the target of nuclear weapons...and the Japanese creator flat out denies it. Says the West doesn't understand that Godzilla is actually about bureaucracy.
What a special and odd place.
