Should provoke reflection on anti-defeat

There are only two viewpoints in the Japanese filming of anti-war defeat films. One is that everyone is guilty, so each of them will play 50 big boards every five or five times, which is to avoid the responsibility of starting the war. The typical method is to portray the Japanese people as being worse than the Chinese people (? You remember the atomic bomb, right); the other is that everyone is innocent, the country, the government, and militarism are guilty, and the responsibility for the war is thrown to the military. The typical saying is that history has passed, the old account has been written off, and an apology has been made Don't get tangled up any more (?). Both are a lack of responsibility and reflection on oneself and history.

If the crime of aggression is the responsibility of the soldiers, then none of your immediate family members were killed in the atomic bombing. What do you commemorate? What does it have to do with you? If the crimes of aggression are all the fault of the military, then all the people killed in the atomic bombing are the imperial people of the Japanese Empire, and none of them are citizens of modern Japan. What do you commemorate? What's the matter with you? This shows that the Japanese not only generally lack reflection, but also have no brains.

    Never against war, only against defeat, only sell miserably. One star is for Noh Nian sauce.

    It is completely different from "Grave of the Fireflies", which is also set in World War II and set in Japan. In a "relaxed tone", it describes the joys, sorrows and sorrows of a family in the hell on earth in their daily life. But it is by no means glorifying war and denying history. Instead, it is no longer kidnapped by the emperor = national ideology, and the moment when the subjectivity of the people appears is also the moment when the light of human nature shines. #The arrival of the post-Ghibli era#
