barefoot gen 4

[oOKakarotOo]

They were right by the door!!

[oOKakarotOo]

You watching Yuna?

[cloudani]

OMG the burning mother at 7:26 shit!

[darkevilazn]

Those who decide to wage war are psychopaths. They don't value human life if they can easily condemn and kill the life of another. They think only for themselves, with no regards to others. Leaders who wage war, people who call for war, those who kill, those to push others down, those who have no bonds with humanity aren't human. They are demons.

[nadalele]

if this film urges you to hate an entire nation then know you are planting the same bad seed in your heart that creates wars .humans are weak creatures that can cooperate to live happily this short time on earth. planting joy in somebody's heart is priceless as planting hate. I observed many hatred comments towards USA & Japan, and this is not what i hoped or desired to come out as a result of showing this film. long live to the people of USA & Japan & all earth.

[Pepittoz]

What kind of person names a plane carrying a bomb after his MOTHER?

[qrczaque]

"... Theirs not to make reply,

Theirs not to reason why,

Theirs but to do and die..."

[Sweetsaimaithai]

America sucks.... -.- it´s so sad.....

[ubiquitousrevolt]

@Sweetsaimaithai Our governments suck. We're still human and it's not like it was our decision. I'm sure we've would've stopped our government if we actually could. US government's fault for dropping the bomb but every government's (including Japan's fault) for taking part in the war.

[beautifulpassion]

@Sweetsaimaithai We are NOT the only country who has caused harm to others, so you can /fuck right off/. What an ignorant, stupid, moronic, unintelligent, uneducated, biased, shallow, stereotyping, CUNT thing to say.

[Mypinkyrulez]

@Sweetsaimaithai No fuck you. As much as I don't agree with what happened, don't go bashing a country that isn't the only one consumed with violence. Don't go generalizing an entire country for what happened in the PAST.

[CountPhantomhive]

now I do understand what they meant by ground zero

[CountPhantomhive]

I didn't know until now that it was THAT horrible... it gives me goose bumps

[Joel354vanfanel]

so why you think enola gay's pilot killed himself?

[centuaripo]

Trauma

[MyGodzilla99]

good animation and nice story i can't remember my favorite part...oh yeah...WHEN THEY DROPED THE A-BOMB!!!!

[knighingale7]

And to think, all this happened in a split second.

[Kaneda1972]

This is only the proof that mankind is condenmed to anihilate themselves...it´s our sad destiny.

[3DREVIL]

I hate U.S.A

[OverlordIX]

Im suprised that the Gen survived almost without a scratch even though the girl next to her got half charred.

Damn that scene was pretty graphic.

[pkassad]

@OverlordIX its because and only because he was bend over behind the cover of a stone wall. If it were not for that fact he would have met the same fate as the girl next to him.

[Vembumees]

Yeah, the pilots sure have some nice dialogues, that's probably why they all went insane after the bombing.

[LawlietDNluver]

I'm watching this for a school project... but its just so horrible. Imagine this happening again somewhere... its possible, thats what scares me.

[DrDoom343]

And to all the people who say the Japanese deserved it for the Nanking Massacre and the like: Stop treating a country with millions of individual people, with varying beliefs, opinions, and experiences, as if it were a single-minded body. Every country involved in WW2 had its monstrous actions. None of them justify any of the others.

[DrDoom343]

And to think this actually happened...

Horrible.

[GeneStarwind09]

This really sends a chill down my spine.

[Demonaire]

War Crime.

[Piratefl]

I had first day of college today and during the subject 'Japanese stories', the professor show the part 3:24 - 9:25. I was like totally shocked and the whole class was too I think, cuz it was totally silent after the clip...

[GameBoyz2]

i wonder why people who lives in japan cannot watch this important part due to copyright restrictions.

[GameBoyz2]

now people who lives in japan can watch this.maybe copyright holder changed the policy.

thanks for uploading!

[Karime18]

I've never seen something more impacting than this in my whole life. I'm scared to death right now after watching this. I'm never cried in horror!!!!!!! This is not something to be proud off, I might go to hell for wishing this, but I hope people who planned the dropping of the bombs and the perpetuators of this act TO FUCKING BURN IN HELL! This is MONSTROUS! I fucking wished they had a slow, miserable, and painful death. FUCK THEM! And the FUCK the leaders in this period.

[JacksRectum]

look at the eyeballs...

[kaitybell]

OMG!! "Condition favorable for bombing" That's so horrible

[Ramanujan88]

whoa, the Americans sound so, so casual. "Ready for bombing." it's haunting.

[atomicengineer]

after the bomb blew up the guy who droped it said, "My God, what have we done."

[Ramanujan88]

oh, I didn't hear that (or do you mean in real life?). I'm certain so many Americans felt hell in their hearts after this and sadly, many felt casual too. I was just pointing out how it was done in the movie.

[arnolddisco]

Yes, I searched it. He did say that.

[BigHappyCptn]

The pilot of the plane, Enola Gay, a man called Paul Tibbets has never expressed any remorse or regret for his actions. he is even quoted as saying "I'm proud that I was able to start with nothing, plan it, and have it work as perfectly as it did... I sleep clearly every night." as well as "If you give me the same circumstances,I'd do it again."

i love our planet.

[neutrino006]

Yes, they felt that time alot of pain in their hearts... but how many of the actualy living americans could feel the same? They feeling fear of terrorists, fear of another coutries developing in science... but no more compasion among the most of them. And that's the result of the world's politics... Of course, all the nations on the planet would be blamed at some point to have this situation now... But who does really cares? Right now we have only the "big bully" in our lives... in our hearts

[Ramanujan88]

true.

[wendyspwnsu]

@Ramanujan88 its the way they wanted to depict us as monsters...

[TheNoodlies]

@Ramanujan88

I don't know if you deleted your account, if you didn't; sorry for old reply...

When the crew first saw the bomb explode the pilot said: "Dear God, what have we done?"...

They regretted all they did, I'd hope you know that.

[Ramanujan88]

hmm...i don't mean to sound stupid, but the ants...of course they can know when bad weather is coming and stuff like that, but how did they sense the bomb coming? when it was on a lone plane, ants don't come running every time a plane flies over...

still, I think that is such a powerful affect.

This such a beautiful movie, everytime I see the clock or calender, I cry.

[answer102]

This Bombing of Japan proved a lot of things.

[delarosa200]

u are right about tht

[HarumiHitori]

They've lessened the blood and the flesh, the book series made me sick, even in black and white pictures.

Oh, actually no. What made me sick is that this happened and now countries have the power to do it again and again and again and again. It should be over...now we can do it many times.

[lancedance2]

lol do it again!

[answer102]

lol

[Karime18]

Go kill yourself insect!

[Karime18]

DIE FUCKER!

[henritje19]

wow this bombing scene is more graphic than the one from "the day after"

[xTheBirdofHermesx]

they have the English subbed 0.o??? lol

[felixeduar666]

3:18 the third was the Enola GAY!!!!!!!!!

[Onjilover]

Well, i find its japans fault, it was going to happen one way or another, GUESS WHAT EVERYONE! we were planning to nuke them 6 more times. 8 times in total. after that, we were going to deploy over 1,500,000 troops to slatter the whole population of japan. i find japan lucky to have surrendered. but yet they were stupid. They should of surrendered after we warned them about the second nuke. But nope. another nuke....Well, there was 2 reasons why we nuked. Threat on los angles and san fransico...

[xTheBirdofHermesx]

0.o you have some of your facts mixed up. First off those were the ONLY 2 nukes we had at the time. We sent a letter to them warning them we had more but it was a bluff. We needed to end to war with Japan quick to focus more effort fighting Germany. But we did warn them we had the bombs before we sent them off so in a way your right about that. Study a little more History before you comment on things this big.

[whatewer23]

I must say that that one guys mother had wery odd name.

[kenseisato1989]

there is no excuse to dropping something like this on innocent civilians, the people who agreed and where happy abaout this shit went strait to hell

[makokun9]

@kenseisato1989 And I hope those who murdered innocent civilians in China, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, etc., etc., etc., went straight to hell, too. Ne? ;)

[kenseisato1989]

@makokun9

yes deffinetly they go to hell to,

if you murder a civilian thats not fighting against you then your going strait to hell

at least in my opinion

[DTanza]

If the Japanese Emperor was not so arrogent and called for a ceasefire it wouldn`t have happened.

[Dannykunnn]

So many people dying in an instant. Tragic. The U.S over dramatizes war..

[OuroborosChoked]

And with that, this single scene has colored almost every anime since (see Akira, Neon Genesis, FLCL... hell, even DBZ).

[rumlarge]

Instant karma is gonna get you! (U.S.A.)

Gonna knock you right off the head!....Pretty soon you're gonna be dead! _John Lennon_

[2degucitas]

90,000 lives vaporized instantly. What a tragedy.

[pluralZZ9]

Now imagine what could've happened, and almost did, during the Cold War.

[answer102]

Nuclear Holocaust.....

[Ironblood1]

Better than 90,000 lives being tortured to death over the course of 10 days.

[2degucitas]

You mean the poor "survivors"? It breaks my heart. I don't consider japan to be an enemy anymore, and I don't harbor any grudges. They paid (in full)and it's over. We totally declawed them military-wise. Now they kick our butts technology-wise. Good for them, rebuild and become a better country. Living well is the best revenge.

[ipodchik]

lol o.o we kick america's butt with tech? I had no idea. It doesn't seem so hi tech here, my bf work for Honda plant here, lol.

[FirestormSonamy]

im Canadian, and Japan's technology beats ours too any day XD lol all the best brands come from Japan

[DarPower1]

@2degucitas Um, im Irish so i might not know, but im 99% sure America is the most technological advanced country in the world. With Japan thrid and China second.

[charlesvan13]

I don't think it was big enough to vaporize 90.000.

I think most of them died from collapsing buildings and radiation.

[DMG125]

@2degucitas add to that those who died due to the radiation after the bombings...

[freacls]

my aunts got a clock the same as Gens its realy old

[rexfordbarrientos]

God wasn't there when the bombs exploded, there was only Death. O the inhumanity of man.

[freacls]

that poor baby brother is always getting thumped on the head Gen is a bit off a bully their sister is very pretty she looks is she belongs in Final fantasy

[Screwball518]

their sister needed more screen time

[Wackyland1]

You know what song they should have played "You Dropped A Bomb on Me"

[sachicoon]

That doesn't justify anything.

[boredstudent]

yeah and besides, the japanese didn't drop an A-bomb on us

[spreadtherandomvibe]

They would have if they had the technology.

Don't even try to claim that Japan had some sort of mercy, just look what they did to China and other South Asian countries.

It's the Emperor's fault for not surrendering, but the Americans were certainly justified in using the Atom Bomb.

[turboleaf]

Exactly, couldn't put it better. For all those who sympathize with the japs, read The Rape of Nanking before you dare to say anything.

[henritje19]

or look at what they did in Indonesia

[arnolddisco]

So it was the citizens of Hiroshima who did that? I know the Japanese GOVERNMENT did some bad things at this time. But not the innocent people the f***** up Americans killed.

[EminemFan202]

Dude I luv this country and Im proud to be and American but this country is one big BULLY!

[Hperman09]

@arnolddisco You guys did the same thing in Dresden when you killed 500,000 German civilians and it was not a military base.

[joshvargas2]

@turboleaf they were civilians that were killed in the atomic bomb, the people that raped and killed in nanking were not civilians.

[alucard1931]

@joshvargas2 Go and ask the offspring of those in Nanking who were conceived because their fathers were forced to rape their own daughters (or by Japanese soldiers). Go tell the remaining people who were there who still live today in Korea, the Philippines, that they are liars to their faces.  What Hirohito did was outright genocide. He didn't surrender until the second atom bombing on his own people. This isn't anti-Japanese, this is just fact. Whitewashing history is indefensible

[coddersjnr]

pearl harbour was no where near as bad as Hiroshima, just bloody americans dramatizing, because shit happened to them instead of them giving out all the shit. pisses me off when all people can say to this video is "yeah but.. yeah welll.."

[freacls]

i know look at all the kids killed in Hiroshima innicont children christ if they condone that their just as bad as pepole whe murder and abuse kids

[Belyygrad]

As far as I remember, neither of these towns had factories or any kind of strategic plants. This was made to frighten Japan and, of course, other countries.

[AnimeMaster0]

ahhh its dead!

[nn2s]

all that aside, no act of destruction of this magnitude should be rationalized. even if there was a legitimate and just reason to bomb, it is still a terrible and horrific tragedy.

[nn2s]

ugh...

guys, try reading some actual history before you post about such a serious topic.

The Japanese people were demoralized, the government was near collapse, and they were asking Russia to negotiate peace with the U.S. before the bomb dropped.

[rina4eva]

isnt this missing a few parts? or was it just in the manga?

[DTanza]

The emporer they had was an idiot we dropped a bomb on Hiroshima we said that if they stopped then we wouldn`t drop another bomb he didnd`t listen so we dropped the second bomb.

[godwhyisthistaken]

yes the japenese could not stop so instead of getting our men killed got to drop bombs on stragetic locations one on Hirosima and Nagasaki its sad 70,000 plus more deaths war is horrofic i cant even imahine those numbers this cartons good but its not something i would watch alot twice is good

[godwhyisthistaken]

i watch this bout 10 years ago hard to belive it was made in 1983 and they make it seem like the japense people were innocent but they supported the cause and would do there biddings with the nation

[hoggers2000]

this guy had a gold pocket watch, and he died a week after the bomb, but his watch stopped at the exact time the bomb hit!

[nosorab3]

the EMP maybe?

[hoggers2000]

I DONT KNOW WHAT THAT IS.......LOL

[youdontunderstand]

oh my god.

[Petcetera2]

truely the most frightening part of the movie, all the main characters personalities built up so much and then with one quick sweep, theyre all gone, i praise the people who made this movie, because so many of us tend to forget what its like to be on the other side of the coin.

[Edomaestro]

when the nuke fell, all the electric things like the clocks stoped, trams ,radios and such items didn't work by the eletromagnetic pulse

[fenrisulvr]

whoa, tragic. I would've really used a tram or a clock inside a fucking atomic explosion ;)
