Japan never properly teaches the correct history. Im sorry for maybe "somewhat" innocent people killed by the bombs. But what about the troop 731 illegal experiments on alive humans? What about Japanese government's fraud about recruiting womens and forcing them to be sex slaves during the war? What about their slaughter of hundreds of thousand Chinese in Nanjing? If you want any respect and any remorse about the nukes, shouldnt you teach your faults first??? And stop going to pray for the war criminals in Yasukuni temple??? You are just a different version of Nazi who still refuses to appologize, Japanese.

Japan owes reparations to all the countries and the people they killed.

It is highly politicized
the super mario movie was the ultimate japanese moment in Hollywood cinema in the world.
Except in china where people made little commercial for because it despises japanese national succes. The Tokyo Olympics were also put under jeopardy because of covid 19.
i argue Barberheimer made both Vietnam and japan were dissed off for hollywood and chinas nationalist pleasing . Because barberheimer has been promoted a lot in china unlike the Mario movie.
China loves and celebrates to see japan being nuked in oppenheimer for wwii because of japanese war crimes , even at the expense of innocent civilians in return which "they should deserve" in chinese eyes.
It was also a old Glory manifestation of anerican conservative establishment in the post war period that vietnam was victim off and chinese staye media often praises this kind of American nationalism because of japan and vietnam being todays 3rd party advesaries. The line in the sea payed lipservice for Chinese nationalism in the south china seas at rhe expense of vietnam.
Hollywood is definitely a china + USA mainstream woke complex narrative. Mulan has failed , but now there is barberheimer .
americans are currently having a self care moment.

Japanese people have a short memory. Have they forgotten the atrocities committed by them in the war? The bombs were not enough. From time to time God sends them a tsunami.

Japan will have the last laugh when they join Brics Bank and leave the American dollar

Pr. Biden & Speaker McCarthy: Japan is a key ally and friend of America, no one wants to make fun of the horrible events 78 years ago , with the Oppenheimer and Barbie movies creating unnecessary hate between Japan and America, is this an accident or by design ? In my opinion the executives making the decisions and the salaries should apologize, Zaslav of Warner Bros Discovery and Roberts of Universal Comcast have made a big mistake, if they can make $ millions a year, they must do the right thing and apologize, this is not the way America treats friends and allies . Thanks!

In an attempt to get Americans to see why Japan finds Barbenheimer offensive, Japanese twitter has taken to making 9/11 jokes – completely misunderstanding that Americans love 9/11 jokes.
