I have no respect for desperate acts of insanity which wasted lives and caused so much needless suffering. All for a lie beaten into the heads of a robot-like populace too submissive, too cowardly to defy or even acknowledge the stupidity of their leaders. If you admire the Kamikaze, you are a just as much a fool as they were. I'm sure my uncle Hendrix would agree. The Japs killed him. For what?
Even if we don't agree with what was done or how it was done, these men did something that we all sit back and take for granted, the fought for the World with guns. Not funny right, but it still happend, Imagine youself fighting for Kingdom and Empire.... Very scary indeed.
Alright its nothing more then a bad joke, the japs from ww2 are without a dought one of the best fighting forces of all times, and they proved themself very effective in the battle field, if maybe they we're more advanace for their times and the nuke didnt overwhelm them they could of for sure played the war out for many years to come, Maybe they could of choked the americans into ending that would see their army still intact ,we should always pay tribute to soldier of WW2 .
If someone says they were crazy and fanatic i say no they weren´t crazy they were heroes who fought fanatically for their country! I´m proud of japan, the keep their tradition and their heroes!
That's the romantic version. not the harsh unglamorous reality. Most kamikaze pilots were drafted university students, given one week flight training and assigned to a suicide unit with no real choice in the matter. They did it because they were pressured into it by a military culture obsessed with the ideal of dying for one's country, and for fear that their families back home would be disgraced and worse should that particular pilot shirk his holy "duty".
yes for some it is true, for others is a choice, but if you know the real true behind the ways of recruting behind the irak conflict it's quite bad too , unfortunatly war its war and the lifes of civilians is very secondary no matter the champ you are, only the victory counts all this to satisfy the objectives of a little minority that doesn't care sending children being killed.
There is always a price to pay when you do something that inflicts massive amounts of damage such as kamikaze. You could just drop bombs and save your life rather then doing something more effective such as killing yourself in a kamikaze.
its amazing when they realised they have lost they offers themselfs for a greater good
like true heroes
but still people are not build for war we should live together in peace instead of racisme and killing for religions, oil and many other nonsence. On tv and games war looks so cool but the fact is in real its not.
@lmos26 You need to read a little history. Before the A-bomb Japan had no territory left and the US had a huge invasion force ready to invade the Japanese mainland. Japan also had no ships or planes by then. They may have committed mass suicide as you suggest but they would have gone down.
@kirwind if US will invade japan without a-bomb it will take years (maybe 3 years or more before japan surrenders) and many lives will lost on both sides . I think the a-bomb is the best option..
@bluegreen988 You are correct. i don't think it would have been 3 years but it would have been ugly and i probably would never have known my dad who left for the Pacific when i was about a month old.
Other erros is the general use of katanas, when in reality the katanas were only handed and used by high grade officiers and those who won great distinctions in war for bravery or thinks like that, not all the soldiers had katanas.
The american hollewood productions movie made so many errors about kamikaze, in the movie pearl harbour they said kamikaze were used, when it's was wrong. I mean some crashed volontary, but it was individually cases. The firts massive and generally kamikaze attacks used by imperial army really begin in 1944.
Most of them were students, and usually very young (under 20 for lot of them), some of them were even only teenagers (about 15-16).
YSCVIC, you're leaving out an important fact. When the Japanese invaded China in 1937, they were absolutely brutal, murdering hundreds of thousands of civilians in Nanking. Not collateral damage, deliberate murder. Also used Chinese civilians for Nazi-like medical experiments. The British brought the rule of law, individual rights, medical care, and a higher standard of living to places like Hong Kong and Malaya. The Kamikaze pilots were brave men serving a rotten cause.
i heard somewhwere that the only reason that the kamikaze attacks happened was that japan was losing so they had to think up new tactics. can somebody please clarify if this is true
@SuperWAZZZZZZUP Yes,you are right.When Japan lost those 4 carriers in less than 2 days the were then out of trained & experience pilots.The trained these new(so called )pilots with roughly 30hrs flight training and after the ceremonial and holy drink of sake they sent them on their 1 way cherryblossom trip and then to (in their belief)a Sumari's place in heaven.
@SuperWAZZZZZZUP Also added to my previous post to you,the Japanese Navy along with losing those 4 carriers lost and their aircrews they lost over 329 bombers/fighters aswell dive bombers rom which they never recovered.
Please stop any wars in the world. Kill or be killed is very stupid just like you see animals killing each other. Be wise. Learn pain from the past. And ... the king of Japan should feel shame for the war he admitted to. How Japanese was so naive to follow someone (the stupid king) who send young people to become bombs. Fooling people. If Japanese felt sad about their people losing their lives for country, why didn't they also think that they're killing others ! We are brothers.
Japan prodded the sleeping giant. The rest, as they say, is history. And contrary to bleeding heart liberals, (or bowing socialist culls like Obunghole) the bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima SAVED countless lives on both sides...
@BucksOwin I AGREE that the bomb ultimately saved a lot of lives. I am a proud son of a Naval officer who fought in every field of battle in the South Pacific and I served in the Navy during the Vietnam War.
Real Americans show each other respect and want to make America a better place. By your last comment you tell me that you are just a sad, angry little man.
When US and UK colonized, they did not do so by killing and enslaving. Japan could have "colonized" just as others did, but chose violence and war. Guilt-driven apologist comments show a lack on intelligence and insight into history.
I feel sorry for the American soldiers who fought in the Pacific instead of the ones who fought in Europe.. The german soldiers surrendered by the hundreds of thousands.. Japanese soldiers will fight to the last man
White people love to go to war with Asians back in the early and mid 19 hundreds by lately it has been with Poor Defenseless Arab people - they are easier to beat !
@HistoryHmoobGuy Lord, you are one guilt-ridden American apologist. Does no one actually study world history outside of some silly politically correct framework? Does anyone remember that America helped save the world from countries who thought bayoneting women and children -- rape of Naking -- was "okay"
White Americans go to church because they know that they have a lot of sins in their lifetimes. They killed tons of Native Americans, enslaved blacks for 350 years, dropped atomic bombs toward human beings, invaded innocent nations (vietnam, iraq, lybia) Now they become fat, which cause a lot of CO2. If Jesus exists, he must punish these Americans. Amen.
The "music" is boring after awhile. This needs some narration, some historical background. Kamakaze pilots weren't used until the US Navy had put the nips on the ropes. And yes, the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasake saved at least a million lives, on both sides. . . . And yes, if it comes to it, we will do the same or more to the tyrants of Iran and elsewhere.
i have a great respect for those guys ...to sacrifice yourself for your country ...it s not an easy decision ... they had balls ..not like today .. creep fake people everywhere lookin only for money and interest... world of of shit ... fake crysys and dark political interests.. fuck politicians...fuck them all...
ALTHOUGH THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT IS STILL UNDER THE CLOUD OF ANGLO-BROTHERHOOD-EMPIRE AFTER ALL THESE CENTURIES, IT WAS PARTIALLY FREED, IN LARGE PART, DUE TO AN EFFORT OF GERMANY& JAPAN. BY THE WAY, ACCORDING TO MAYAN SUN-GOD CALENDAR, THE OLD WORLD WILL END ON DEC 12,2012. BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD FOR ALL IN NEW WORLD!.....
Although Japan had agreed to WWI treaties not to expand her territories thoroughout Asia, the US and UK miliatary continued to colonize Asian Nations at an alarming rate, getting closer and closer to Japan. If I was Japanese and cognizant of world affairs I would agree that war was inevitable.
@Dogmeat1950 suck a dick fagget.. ther have a right.. just like afghanistan all .. who fight amrica got the right 2 put a dick in u US ass motherfucker.. u time wel soon come dont worry

@gtk4158a You mean Prince Yasuhiko Asada of Nanking fame. Thanks to Gen MacArthur, this arsehole escaped earthly punishment for his war crimes and spent his postwar days playing golf. Emperor Hirohito was a gutless worm - he was happy to side with whoever was in power. Not a word of apology from him to the thousands of Japanese soldiers who killed, burned, stole and ultimately died in his name. Yes, the Japanese then were ruled by a family of criminals, murderers and kleptocrats.
@gtk4158a on the other side Truman has been so honest he bombed japan even if Hirohito resigned weeks before. Oh yeah, and americans took part on the war, but just when they were sure their economical asset would max benefit to their nation, letting million soviets die in Stalingrad before acting, and making lots of american soldiers dying in Europe. They also landed a great help in restoring mafias authority in southern Italy. Truman never paid for his atrocities. politicians always suck.
The japanese kamikazes differs from terrorsit kamikaze, the main japanese kamikaze targets were military targets, the terrorist doen't mind killing innocents.
Even if i'm not so sure that the 9.11 was made by terrorists, but that is another history.
Some would say that was only due to lack of possibilities, because their main targets obviously were the ships closing in on them... the Japanese military did not care overly much about the laws of war nor for the life of civilians or defenseless prisoners in WWII.
kamikaze main targets during WWII were military targets, ships particulary, it's a war strategy. Kamikaze terrorist main targets are civilians and they do it to express political or religious ideologies, for exemple 11.9.01
@gtk4158a well, the emperor was in a desperate situation mate, Japan didn't have any resources. I'm sure America would do the same if it didn't have any resources to support modernisation. Those who won the war can call him evil, morally bankrupt and perverted because they won. If you win, you are divine. Who in the course of history has won a war and not be considered divine? Try looking at the matter from a third person's point of view. maybe, you can see the situation from a different angle.
@gtk4158a not the emperor, more tojo hideki. the emperor didnt wanted the war, the government back then forced him to start a war,and he just wanted to do,what would be the best for his citizens,it breaked his heart when nagasaki and hiroshima was nuked. i think hirohito was a good person but a victim of his environment.
These are real diehard hopr to die for the emperor japs back in ww2--what a wate of lives----thier emperor doesnt even knew them----------------Fuck all the wars, why cant all the countries in the world talk about things and settle it nice and in peace----My Granpa was a former General of the ww2 and he told me of all the terrors they have been--my dad was a war baby who grew up in the Phillippine Islands in 1941---Hunger and terror awaits is waht war is all about.
My Dad and his brother Richard served in the South Pacific during WWII. In fact, my father was on the USS Hazelwood DD-531, do a search on it and see the destruction these little SOBs did, 2 thirds of the sailor were killed in that attack. You think are guys were bad in Iraq, having people in their underwear. Try having bamboo shoved under your finger nails. The also burnt our guys alive in air raid trenches filled with fuel.
awesom footage man, realy cool and rare and kkind of exclusive, the pictures are cool too :) i especielly like this scene 4:02 bold and brave japanese pilot flying an F1M pete (?) risks his life and yet survives a massive barrage of AA with his low speed, low altitude and close range to the AA. very rare
@askjiir indeed, it was top rare s it looks epic, wonder what was the pilot like, looks like he's up to attacking lots of enemies counting how many AA's are firing at him. poor japanese, its a baeutiful plane to be lost like this....
must've been a bad day flying an F1M pete biplane in a kamikaze mission.... won't do much damage even if it reaches anyway, should've used something fast and loaded, an A6M would do
I read a book called "The Prize" which documents the history of oil. In the book it talks about how oil {or a lack of} had a profound effect on the decision making and dererioration of both Japan and Germany's "prospects" in WW2. To a degree wasn't the use of kamikaze's felt to be the most "efficient" mode of attack late in the war because the lack of petrol would not allow for long sortee's? Japan's religion, their mindset, insular culture also allowed for it too. Devotion to "the whole."
This is compelling and very well done. Today, we are so used to someone talking or moderating that it is a bit "eerie" because without the moderation one has to make connections and assimilate what is being viewed and at the same time trying to integrate what knowledge we have of the Pacific campaign and the culture of Japan {mindset} while we watch. This is no easy task for the "fast food" intellectual culture we live in today. I enjoyed it though once I got "used to it." Well done.
Thanks for the video, im a japanese born american. I remember at certain places of okinawa I still have bullets from the coral and rocks that was lodged from Us troops. my grandma (rip) survived the battle and stayed in the cave system. my grandpa fought on a japanese carrier off of okinawa but survied also. I ended up serving with the us marine corps and, a warrior is a warrior, thats for sure.
great movie, im tattoing a full sleeve with asian kamikaze theme and this movie gave me som nice ideas. i did yesterday a kamikaze pilot that missed the ship and is laying in the water with a flower growing over him while he is watching his comrades flying over him (you can see it in his reflection on the glasses on his pilot hat
The Atom bombs that were dropped.. That ended the war. were adorned with the metals and other gifts of peace that japans emperor gave the united states a couple of weeks prior to the sucker punch at pearl harbor.
Please dont fool yourself. Adolf hitler would have destroyed japan as well as ALL other Asian countries and its citizens would have been exterminated. That is an ignorant thing for you to say.
There's is still a question of courage and bravery moment before impact,those who closed their eyes and those who didnt.......life and injuries meant suffering,to avoid suffering one must steer head on with eyes wide open to ensure a glorious ending for oneself....Martyrs never fail to die in great cause....
On a good day the honey bees kisses the flowers and collected nectar,but whenever the colony of peace are being threaten,the honey bees applied it's deadly stinger,it had only but one stinger one life to spend and once applied it knew it's days of flower kissing and nectar collectioning is over,his arse is screwed.....but God save the queen bee !! in the case of the Japs,Shinto Save Emperor Hirohito.
Death is only but a blink of the eyes,but you must go head on courageously.The truly brave keep his eyes open moment before impact,the cowards close his.God despised cowards !!!
@ChampionFx ok, well why dont you tell this "60 year old" to quit spreading lies. kamikazes were effective. they not only gave Japan hope as the US was closing in, but they killed over 5000 americans, damaged hundreds of ships and sunk over 30 ships. not to mention the psychological factor they played on American soldiers. it was scary.
fuck americans

White Americans go to church because they know that they have a lot of sins in their lifetimes. They killed tons of Native Americans, enslaved blacks for 350 years, dropped atomic bombs toward human beings, invaded innocent nations (vietnam, iraq, lybia) Now they become fat, which cause a lot of CO2. If Jesus exists, he must punish these Americans. Amen.

The "music" is boring after awhile. This needs some narration, some historical background. Kamakaze pilots weren't used until the US Navy had put the nips on the ropes. And yes, the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasake saved at least a million lives, on both sides. . . . And yes, if it comes to it, we will do the same or more to the tyrants of Iran and elsewhere.

Although Japan had agreed to WWI treaties not to expand her territories thoroughout Asia, the US and UK miliatary continued to colonize Asian Nations at an alarming rate, getting closer and closer to Japan. If I was Japanese and cognizant of world affairs I would agree that war was inevitable.

@gtk4158a You mean Prince Yasuhiko Asada of Nanking fame. Thanks to Gen MacArthur, this arsehole escaped earthly punishment for his war crimes and spent his postwar days playing golf. Emperor Hirohito was a gutless worm - he was happy to side with whoever was in power. Not a word of apology from him to the thousands of Japanese soldiers who killed, burned, stole and ultimately died in his name. Yes, the Japanese then were ruled by a family of criminals, murderers and kleptocrats.

@gtk4158a on the other side Truman has been so honest he bombed japan even if Hirohito resigned weeks before. Oh yeah, and americans took part on the war, but just when they were sure their economical asset would max benefit to their nation, letting million soviets die in Stalingrad before acting, and making lots of american soldiers dying in Europe. They also landed a great help in restoring mafias authority in southern Italy. Truman never paid for his atrocities. politicians always suck.

The japanese kamikazes differs from terrorsit kamikaze, the main japanese kamikaze targets were military targets, the terrorist doen't mind killing innocents.
Even if i'm not so sure that the 9.11 was made by terrorists, but that is another history.

Some would say that was only due to lack of possibilities, because their main targets obviously were the ships closing in on them... the Japanese military did not care overly much about the laws of war nor for the life of civilians or defenseless prisoners in WWII.

@gtk4158a well, the emperor was in a desperate situation mate, Japan didn't have any resources. I'm sure America would do the same if it didn't have any resources to support modernisation. Those who won the war can call him evil, morally bankrupt and perverted because they won. If you win, you are divine. Who in the course of history has won a war and not be considered divine? Try looking at the matter from a third person's point of view. maybe, you can see the situation from a different angle.

My Dad and his brother Richard served in the South Pacific during WWII. In fact, my father was on the USS Hazelwood DD-531, do a search on it and see the destruction these little SOBs did, 2 thirds of the sailor were killed in that attack. You think are guys were bad in Iraq, having people in their underwear. Try having bamboo shoved under your finger nails. The also burnt our guys alive in air raid trenches filled with fuel.

I read a book called "The Prize" which documents the history of oil. In the book it talks about how oil {or a lack of} had a profound effect on the decision making and dererioration of both Japan and Germany's "prospects" in WW2. To a degree wasn't the use of kamikaze's felt to be the most "efficient" mode of attack late in the war because the lack of petrol would not allow for long sortee's? Japan's religion, their mindset, insular culture also allowed for it too. Devotion to "the whole."

This is compelling and very well done. Today, we are so used to someone talking or moderating that it is a bit "eerie" because without the moderation one has to make connections and assimilate what is being viewed and at the same time trying to integrate what knowledge we have of the Pacific campaign and the culture of Japan {mindset} while we watch. This is no easy task for the "fast food" intellectual culture we live in today. I enjoyed it though once I got "used to it." Well done.

@ChampionFx ok, well why dont you tell this "60 year old" to quit spreading lies. kamikazes were effective. they not only gave Japan hope as the US was closing in, but they killed over 5000 americans, damaged hundreds of ships and sunk over 30 ships. not to mention the psychological factor they played on American soldiers. it was scary.
