  • Do you people not understand "Context". This was made to cheer up audiences during a very hard time. Is it propaganda, yup, but guess what? EVERYONE was/is/forever will be, doing it; this is just the form it took. Now, getting past that, the gags are really well done, and unlike most of the crap out today, made me genuinely laugh.

  • racistsm is a ugly thing that's why some people will always stinck

  • "That's what the enemy is to you huh? A fucking buck tooth cartoon dreamed up by some asshole on Madison Square to sell soap?" - GunnySgt. John Basilone, The Pacific (2010)

  • hahhaa funny cartoon but japanese army were bad people back then. they rape any women they see but all those guys are dead now so just have a laugh about it.

  • yes yes yes

  • what would have been racist is calling them all Pythagorus.

  • its a cartoon, based during WWII, dont READ into it.

  • lol I thought that soldier was Vietnamese at first, but then it turns out he's Japanese ^.^;

  • I find it hilarious that we were such bigots back then.

  • thanks for the upload

  • まぁ、昔の日本人のイメージなんてだいたいこんな感じですね。

    けっこう楽しめました。

  • LOL. I typed"poop" thats funny. Naps should drink malt liquor

  • Poop

  • We are "So Called" allies with several Islamic nations....But the fact is clear that Islam is the center and the cause of 95% of all terrorist actions in the world today. They have become a scourge of the earth and as far as I am concerned the religion can be wiped off the Earth. I spent a year in the middle east and grew to dislike the majority of them. The list of adjectives I could use to describe these people is endless.

  • @TheOldcrow1945 I'm Islamic(Muslim) so do you think I go around blowing up people? Terrorism comes from everywhere from any religion. Christians were doing a massacre of Hindus 2 years ago in Mongolia. And Islam is not the 95% of cause of terrorism. Maybe 40 or 60% but not 95% don't bring in numbers that you can't prove. You think Islam is the main reason 'cuz every time a bombing happens in America, the news shows Muslims praying. I lived and watched 9/11 on TV and was disgusted

  • @ipods36 Even if your numbers were true, (They are not) I would be ashamed to admit that a faith in which I am a part of was behind 60% of the terroristic acts in the world today....The killing of thousands and thousands of innocent people...And if this were the case, I would certainly no longer be a part of that faith.

    While you personally may have been disgusted by 9/11, many, many Muslims in the Middle East were dancing in the streets and praising your god for these deaths of over 2,000 folk

  • @TheOldcrow1945 what were you doing there?

  • @maplecrisp I was there as a combat vet...I dealt with the local population in three countries.

  • this is called WAR PROPAGANDA

    of course people don't think that way about Japan now.

    Just like we don't think of Germans as evil nazis

    Things change

  • @uberwhoah

    They don't, hence why they have a "self-defense force", mainly under the supervision of the US.

    Now, instead of embarking on imperialist pillaging adventures in Asia they dedicate the majority of their resources now into doing silly things.

  • @LilGrim

    Marking kills, all the boys did it.

    >;]

  • 5:32 BEACHED WHALE

  • Japan really shouldn't have a military because there was an agreement between countries.

  • 5:55 is my favorite part.

  • if only cartoons were still allowed to do this stuff.

  • I'm japanese but you know this was back when Japan was considered bad. Now its a peaceful place with awesome technology. I don't think they have been in war since WW2. It is racist but you know whatever.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I forgot to add that at the same time Warner was doing this cartoon, the Japanese propaganda machine had indoctrinated its citizens to believe that American military men ate babies. After all, Americans were savages, right? LOL

  • History isn't politically correct. Get over it!

  • Ugh this is terrible,I guess Bugs thinks I'm monkey-faced.

  • @Roblok100 its a 60+ year old wartime cartoon, dont take it personal

  • @MagneticMemories Sadly there are racist things from our past. But hopefully we can all grow from it and just accept each other.

  • @Roblok100 Don't worry bout it brother don't blame yourself for the mistakes made by people of the Past I love Japan

  • @Roblok100 Long Live the emperor

  • @AnalogueAbsynth Remember when this cartoon was made.

  • what the...

  • Racist overtones aside (and it's VERY HARD to overlook}, this is kinda the story of America to a "T". Fight, make money while doing so, get laid, the end...

  • Here's one for you slanted eyes

  • Ooh cartoon racism this is great!

  • its funny cuz thats how my asian frends mom talks to him

  • eight japanese

  • Even in the early 80s when I was watching Bugs Bunny, I don't think they ever aired this one. You sure get a good history lesson by watching the World War II era cartoons.

  • What's UooP, Honourable Dookka?

  • 3:12 watching cat position

  • 6:08 Here's yours bull legs, one for you monkey face, here ya are slant eyes. Wow blatant but it was the times.

  • every1 complains abou ppl complaining, yet i c no complains and just 5 thumbs down. CLICHE MUCH?

  • We need a Muslim edition!!

    

  • @TheOldcrow1945 There is one. It has a little Muslim guy with a large shell (bullet) on his head and hes always trying to run into things to blow up. I wish I could remember the characters name or the episode name....damn. Anyone else remember? I believe Bugs was the star.

  • @TheOldcrow1945 no you see now thats not allowed because its rascist and it makes america look bad, remember the muslims arent our enemy the terrorists our, even though the terrorists are muslim right? makes total sense

  • @squagglenater were you hatched retarded or did you train?

  • @immaculatejaculation that doesnt even make sense? when did you lose all your brain cells?

  • @immaculatejaculation coming by your youtube name i think you were born without them

  • @immaculatejaculation

    Now there's one fine insult, have to remember that one, hee hee hee :-)

  • @TheOldcrow1945 the stupid is strong with this one

  • @Davedz91 A Star wars quote....That says it all

  • @TheOldcrow1945 If I see one, freedom is fucked

  • @TheOldcrow1945

    Lol inbred redneck.

  • @TheOldcrow1945 but that would piss them off. LOL WHO GIVES A FUCK THEY STARTED IT

  • @TheOldcrow1945 It wasn't all muslim countries that we are at war with

    We are actually allies with a few.

    Saudi Arabia is one example

    Only one i can think of at the moment

  • @TheOldcrow1945 Southpark did one

  • @TheOldcrow1945 might as well, they kill 2 million of them

  • @TheOldcrow1945 yes indeed, coz you can never have enough stereotypse.. stop being an asshole and enjoy the video..

  • Though I love anime and all things Japanese (my room's decorated in it, for Pete's sake), I find pieces of history like this intriguing. It shows that everyone thought this way during wartime, and how disgusting some people can be. I'm sure they made the same things about us over there. But still, I think this is funny. In a political way, of course. The death wasn't funny in real life. But still... I'm glad this was preserved.

  • After this, Bugs Bunny will be finish animated in Japan xD the irony.

  • Its like battle of the animations japanese guy (anime) vs bugs (cartoons)

  • @4515jonny

    Someone should do an update of this, esp in anime style.

  • @nucleardeath07 Yes, because Texans are an oft-discriminated against minority, so that's totally the same as ethnic caricaturing.

  • what about Lola?

  • @jrapcdaikari stupid crappy bunny sex object and love intrest in bugs made 40 years later in the shit movie Space Jam

  • also on a similar note where ahs tho most of this cartoon the "japanese" was mostly just random screech noises yet where important they put in actual japanese phrases.

  • for those who want to bitch about this cartoon please sepakku. for those who don't get it by the way that bit"heres some scrap iron for japan moto(japan attacked china for it's resource rish coasts..mainly for raw iron tho. hence why the joke was funny.

  • @allhailfoamy1 I got the joke. Indochina though not China.

  • @lasoogneypubes where has i'm glad you got the joke isn't saying they invaded indochina kinda splitting hairs?

  • @allhailfoamy1 Not really. Indochina is its own territory. It's neither China or India.

  • @lasoogneypubes true it is abit of a gray area designed to be a boreder i suppose but i'd imagine to invade indochina would be an act of war against both india and china.

  • ice some slant eyes and get some tail bugs is the man

  • Comment removed

  • @jigglypiggly I'm not saying it's not ok, just rude.

  • GET this baby on DVD: it's a lu-lu!!!!

  • @rabsmiff Dream On!!!

  • @WereWolfDan1991 sadly, you're right.

  • @gokuandmario4ever its still funny

  • @Caboose727 but still rude.

  • The video is so great thanks for uloading

  • ASHUSHUKIASHASHATANOMISHAWAHAR­AISHIWAKAPONGYAMAIOTAKAI.!

  • ATCHAWATACHAIISHAWAHCATAOOIOOT­OTOMOCHACAIKAWA..

  • The first Jap soldier scene is extremely hillarious..MUAHAHAHAHAHHHAAAH­HA!

  • FUCKING JAPS dammit! WE SHALL BOMB TOKIO SOME DAY.

  • @forcelexus

    Unfortunately you're about 70 years late.

  • @forcelexus

    is that why rednecks are incesty screwing their sisters?

  • so peaceful, so quiet....

  • I find this really interesting actually.

  • AAAAHWATATAHAHAHHCHAHAHJHACHAH­AHAHWHIWHIDHCHIHIHIAHHAHHHOOOO­T!!!

  • JAJAJAJA!...

    injured nippon running: HEY you wait a second!... i got a free one!

    best escene EVER!

  • that sounds more like cantonese than japanese....

  • Why was the sumo angered by Bugs drawing the the rising sun image of Japan on the tree? why was bugs doing that anyway ?

  • @LiIGrim every flag is a confirmed kill, pilots did the same on aircraft, tanks too

  • @isjdg thanks i was wondering why he did that too

  • @FNGLHR Quit being a sissy. You know how many racist jokes and cartoons that have the intention of being racist there are today? Who cares, this is funny. Enough of this political correctness bullshit.

  • @AnimaSeverem It was such a personal war that it led to one of the more shameful chapters in American history. That being the Interment camps for Japanese Americans. The US literally locked up several of it's own citizens merely because they were of a different ethnic race and forced them to give up their property and jobs. When they got out they were unable to gain any of it back. It took years before the US apologized for the action and recognized how wrong it was.

  • @AnimaSeverem Those are both technically correct and valid points, but the problem remains the same. The Japanese here are depicted as less than human and while that was a valid viewpoint during the war they are now allies and thus the cartoon has lost it's relevance in today's society. Also calling them the enemy of the united states is an understatement. Americans hated Japan, they hated them more than the Germans. The Pacific was about personal revenge.

  • Why are all the Japanese soldiers wearing glasses?

  • @PuertoRicanfjr12 The most infamous of all Japanese government officials in the west during World War 2 was Prime Minister Tojo. Technically Japan is run by it's emperor, but Tojo was the face of the actual military government. Because of his distinct glasses most cartoons tended to make the Japanese wear them. It was intended to mock Tojo more than anything. The short and buck teeth stuff though, that was around for awhile before I think.

  • Thumbs up if you know what hari kari is.

  • i feel sorry for the japanese with the ice cream

  • @AnimaSeverem Perfectly stated.

  • Can any other version get any better than this upload? :D

    I guess they paid Bugs for the ice cream with "mickey mouse money". XD

  • There's nothing wrong with exaggerating features and mannerisms of ethnicities. Just look at Elmer Fudd, Speedy Gonzales and Yosemite Sam.

  • @RavieKulay What about the ethnic slurs at around 6:09?

    Bowl legs? Slant Eyes? Monkey Face?

    Also, considering the form of Blackface is also still considered offensive I believe that the exaggeration of facial feature sis still considered offensive. Also there's a difference, Fudd and Sam are white Americans, Speedy is a Mexican whose treated as a hero and is in fact loved by many Mexicans themselves.

  • @LeathermanFan2 forgive my last comment I read your comment wrong. I agree bud, political correctness is ridiculous these days

  • @LeathermanFan2 yeah sure that's why America has the worlds most massive military. We have enough weaponry to blow the world up unfortunately.

  • Comment removed

  • 2:07 - 2:08 Love how the blade magically increases in size

  • I love this episode :D

  • Bugs bunny could be Nisei forces of the second world war. Everyone knows that Rabbits are Japanese rats......................Is that an acceptable statement on YT. Its a bit hard to know whats acceptable after that vid. What is Bugs Bunny, is sort of American persona. He seems Jewish New York to me but I come from Yorkshire so I dont know.

  • @grimblebrumble17889 He's a fucking cartoon rabbit, he dosent HAVE a nationality.

  • @777pixlemap FFS. I was taking the piss out of the video. Fuck off and get a sense of humour you misreable fucking cunt.

  • @777pixlemap

    If you want to get ultra-technical, in the Looney Tunes universe he was born in New York City.

  • Wow, Bugs Bunny sure was racist back in those days. =S

  • he said SHANG RI LA!!!

  • LOL

  • 2:49 not wanting to make Hari Kari AKA suicide

  • I hate there's so many good gags interspersed with such uncomfortable portrayals of the Japanese in this short.

  • Good Rumor Ice Cream! Classic

  • Man, I haven't seen this one since mid '70s.

  • The U.S. didn't chop off civilians heads or burying them alive while laughing, like the Japanese did to civilians when they occupied other countries. Knowing what the Japanese did in China, Singapore and the Philippines informed Roosevelt's decision to intern the Japanese residing in California. Also, they were compensated later for that wrong. The Japanese still call their victims liars and refuse to compensate them.

  • Anyone who really knows what the Japanese did in WWII shouldn't have a problem with this.

  • Racist by modern standards... but somehow funny...

  • Originally released in April 1944, when Japan was our #1 enemy in the Pacific during the Second World War. And, as in most topical propaganda films at the time, "the enemy", whether they were Japanese, German, or Italian, were grossly caricatured (and if cartoons could feature an Osama Bin Laden caricature these days, they'd do it).

  • Perfect for my Pearl Harbor project

  • Bug Bunny, killing pilots after they've bailed out and laughing; truly the figure from our childhoods.

  • Comment removed

  • Heh, and in the end, Bugs got a private island to populate with rabbits.

  • This is exacly what I see when I watch Naruto.

  • WOW! This is almost like a restore print compared to the other versions on YT.

  • Ah there's no propaganda like Looney Toon WWII propaganda.

  • @rikyrick87 gross.

  • wtf is a "nip"?

  • @Erilis666 Nip

    (U.S. and UK) A derogatory term for someone of Japanese descent (shortened version of Nipponese, from Japanese name for Japan, Nippon)

  • I'm in Love.

  • Thank you for uploading a good copy of this. All of the others are crap.

  • MONKEY FACE!!

  • I went to the jap museum at la and I can't stop seeing how funny this is .

  • Team America: World Police and Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips are nothing at all alike. Sure they both play on ridiculous racial stereotypes but Team America makes fun of those stereotypes by portraying the characters that believe those over-simplified views to be extremely idiotic. Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips is just hateful of Japanese people and their society.

  • @Kickassfilms100 Read a bit about what the Japanese really did in WWII. This cartoon is nothing to get worked up about.

  • Well I dont think Bugs Bunny ever said or think something bad or racist about japanese and he is not racist hes just doing what he knows to do.... have fun but their creators putted him against a Japanesse guy what where you specting him to do??? just stand up and thats it??

    bugs did his stuff and the guys who created that chapter putted him in front of another stupid guy just like elmer fudd or any other character who is versus bugs...

  • @51140004 well you must not have heard him calling every jap he was serving ice cream grenades to japanese racial slurs. It is pretty racist for our time where as back then it was just propaganda, but it was funny as hell propaganda!

  • @stedil17 A sweet treat to their defeat's alright by me!

  • 2:43??? are you kidding me??? this was america?

  • "Monkey face"!? Hahaha, oh man!

  • Guess what. We were at War. America at this time is the only country more concerned with the feelings of the enemy than their own (I am sure Osama has no such concerns).

  • @uberben13 yes, but that's what sets us apart from Osama.

  • Slant eyed, monkey face ... I wish more cartoons were as racist as Bugs Bunny and horny. 7:43

  • @UndeadOutbreak hows this racist? thats closer to how they are than how rabbits are if you think about it-

    like big time.

  • @UndeadOutbreak Are you stupid? I would hate that! I hate racists and racist cartoons so don't you dare say that!

  • @TheFLAMEXD This whole cartoon is racist towards the Japanese and if you don't believe that he himself is racist. Then search up cartoons where Bugs is racist. Honestly I think he is hilarious but it is the God given truth. He was racist during the world war 3 era becaus ewe were at war. But once a racist always a racist.

  • @UndeadOutbreak Yeah i sort of clicked on the wrong box and accidently made that comment. I'm sorry.

  • @UndeadOutbreak

    You're right about bugs being a racist, but it was world war 2 that he was most racist at, not world war 3.

  • @itachiprincezz12 Well typing fast and hitting post wasn't the best idea.... but you never know.

  • @UndeadOutbreak

    true so true :D

  • @UndeadOutbreak It was the Japanese who launched a race-based war. What's so bad about mocking your enemy, the ones who started it? Find out about the Rape of Nanking, Unit 731 and terrible Japanese treatment of prisoners and civilians before getting so self-righteous.

  • @borisgeorge There are civilians too you know. Soldiers are one thing , but when America got attacked we put our Japanese civilians in camps for no reason. I think that was pretty racist imagine being locked up for being a certain race. But really I am just saying that Bugs is funny here for being what he is. This cartoon made me laugh a lot and is one of my favorite episodes.

  • Nice quality

  • 2:50 notice the Japanese National Anthem is playing.

  • I like the way the general public NOT involved in the movie industry always has the dumbest comments. it's youtube morons... wow get a life. besides I'm sure nobody on here ever saw this anywhere else.. LOL

  • hahaha both Warner Brothers and Disney are full of shit

  • Im mexican and i think this is rascist but i love it :)
