And I love Japan, but Nanking is reprehensible beyond reprehensible. I mean when you repeatedly commit unspeakable atrocities something like those bombs seems merciful in a weird sense. Just dare to think what would have happened had they took a US or Australian city. Their actions in the Philippines and surrounding islands are no less awful.

Their right wing presence is quite strong and anime such as Akira and Ghost in the Shell carry subtle and not so subtle anti American undertones.
