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?

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.
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
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.
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
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...
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.
@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
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.
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.
@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.
@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.
@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.
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.
Without propaganda like this, America would not have had the civilian morale that military men needed to have fighting away from their country and family, and the Nazis and Imperial Japanese would have won. Right now, America is trying to fight Muslim extremists and because of political correctness America is pretty much dead. Thank you American traitors. Even the communists would put you people in political prison because even they know how dangerous you people are to the sanctity of a country.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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!
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).
@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 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.
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

@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!

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.

@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.

@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.
