Thank you for the videos! I would love to see some of kamakura and more miyajima! 😊

Imagine if they did give up with the furnace, it's always good to keep trying if possible.

ArigatO great swordsman 🙏 😁 many great things Shimanzu Nariakira Very wise

Looking at your videos i regular see places i overlooked or wasn't able to visit because of time constraints. This one is now on the top of the list when i vist kagoshima again. The view from the residence to sakurajima was stunning. And the engawa all around to enjoy the perfect view was a dream. Thank you for your videos 😊

The story of the cat shrine made me smile. Anybody who keeps a cat would understand.

I was listening-to my Sony-'cassette-recorder to-day !!-still working after 50 years!!--& my "Matsudaya"-robot-toy !!--I collect Japanese toys !!--they are "Quirky"-& a lot of fun !!-& last !!

👍👍

So,--That would be a "blast-Furnace"-tomelt metal-??--I worked on one at Newcastle -Australia---when we made our own steel,--those things are dangerous !!--but all gone now-what a beautiful place !!--have you been in any '"earth--quakes ??

Thank you, amazing historical site!

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

The Zero was a truly magnificent looking fighter plane..

Don't feel too bad, Japan. European people were very racist and had empires that killed people to maintain power. China was a slave state of European powers. France had Vietnam and were murdering Vietnamese until they were kicked out.. America treated black people badly. I'm glad to see all people learning. Japan should acknowledge and move on.

You as a Japanese person should be ashamed because Japan is a cruel invader, barbaric like an animal and the cruelest devil who has killed and made millions of people suffer from the countries you have colonized

Mi piace moltissimo riguarda re i film di guerra in particolare l'attacco a sorpresa dei giapponesi a Pearl Harbour:Tora Tora Tora.Anche guardare i libri.😮😮😮😮😮😮Si con molta fatica,perché gli americani hanno preso una grandissima batosta.😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

If you're interested in a more insightful look at Chiran and the kamikaze, search for 'The Inn of the Divine Wind'.

Salute

The Good Bye letters were heartbreaking. So young...so brave.........so sad. My father was in the Air Force, he was stationed in Osaka...i spent the happiest times there. Such kind and humble people.

Thank you 🙏

Thank you for this. I was last in Japan in 1996/97. I traveled to 島原 to see a few things. I think I left from Nagasaki on a steam train. I don’t recall the stop I got off, but I saw a replica of the castle that was burned down. Before I entered the castle that statue at the end of your video was displayed. After the castle I went to a ninja village (my guide book said it was one of the first ninja villages). I walked around some more and found a Japanese WW2 museum. The worker was びっくりした！このへんで外人あまり見ませんだからでしょう。日本の歴史興味があるですから行きなければならないです。 I just forget because it’s so long ago. Maybe they removed his statue and put it in the original ruins.

Agreed absolutely. May all being benefit. Thank you! 🙏

Unfortunatly the japanese military in ww2 didnt follow the code of the samuri, or bushido, bayoneting babies, torturing prisoners of war, doing bizzare medical experiments on civilian prisoners, etc etc etc Zero honor

Thanks for the great video! Here is a new video on the sea plane you showed - th-cam.com/video/qySSsKNKojU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WK1HNvfb6hTINhLA

Thank you. what a wonderful video. I am very lucky and will be visiting this place tomorrow 💚♾️

素敵な二人ですね JACK WILDもいたらなぁ

Futile exercise really.

Very interesting. There is also a small kamikaze museum close to Kagoshima airport.

Great video and superb translation arigato from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

Wow, amzing under-taking; great video.. Heart-felt thanks.. For sharing this and reading the last notes.

お疲れ様です👌

Beautiful! Many thanks! 🙏

Neither this Chiran museum nor the Yushukan museum at the Yasukuni jinja in Tokyo offer the slightest indication of the wholesale death, misery and suffering the Japanese forces introduced wherever they travelled on a voyage of national enrichment. The romanticising of this horror at Chiran helps to further distort the understanding most young Japanese have of the reality of what happened during the war.

I have a world war II Japanese 7.7 arisaka rifle with the bayonet that my grandpa brought back from WW2 it has the emperor's Crest on it I have been trying to find out any information on it that I could like maybe who was the Japanese soldier that carried it this rifle is in perfect working condition I shot it about a month ago I don't know if maybe you could help me if you think you can if you could leave me an email or I can give you my email be more than happy to send you pictures of it and the serial number I also have a looks like it's silk it has the rising Sun on it and it has a bunch of Japanese writing on it. It is the one that would be worn around their waist into battle with their families signature on it I happen to cross your video late last night I just thought I would leave you this comment me and my wife RX military and we both love watching your videos..

Sehr ergreifend ist die Geschichte.

A STEASFAST BOW THEN SALUTE

I am fortunate to have visited both museums several times over the years due to my family connections in Kagoshima. My mother was 16 years old in 1945 and remembers waving to the hundreds of planes headed for the battle of Okinawa, destined to never to return. Such a close connection to history makes it a real pilgrimage each time I go to Kanoya and Chiran.

I've been here it's really interesting there's a samurai village close by with beautiful gardens.

😢 it's truly sad when you see the perspective of Both sides I had 2 of my uncles were on the Arizona where BOTH Officers When Pearl harbor was attacked. Needless to say they never found Nothing left of them.😢😢😮😮 It's too bad the assholes that start these Wars aren't the Ones that have to fight them. Instead of young kids their lives Turn into a meat grinder. The etiology.OF Wars is Nothing more than Wast OF resources in human life. LT USMC You did a great job on the videos kid shows the other sides perspective and what they went Through IN 😢 There final MOMENTS 😔😔 knowing it's over 😔😔😔

Thank you for sharing this video.

What do the people of Japan think of the idea of crashing a perfectly good airplane into a ship? It would be hard to convince me to hope into a plane intentionally and be on a one way flight. Its one tjing if the plane is damaged beyond a reasonable ability to fly it back. Strategicly speaking striking the U.S. fleet in Pearl was a good idea on paper. But in reality picking a fight with the US probably was not the smartesr thing to do. I know Admiral Yamamoto knew deep inside the attack on Pearl was not the best choice. I wonder if he had forced the issue to have the attacked canceled if it would have changed anything.

Excellent video!

Well they were not there for peaceful purposes.

One of the first Kamakazi attacks occurred at Leyte Gulf in the Philippines. Okinawa came later.

Let me think, how many brave Americans died on Dec. 7th, 1941?

A very amazing look at a sad episode. My father was a USN Helldiver pilot. His first combat mission was against Kanoya airfield on March 18, 1945 from the cairrer USS Wasp. That concrete shelter shown with the bomb damage could have been his hit. Who knows? The very next day, March 19, 1945, his ship, the Wasp, was hit with a bomb from a dive bomber that only had to fly about 50 miles to make this successful attack. I wonder if this bomber was from Kanoya? Poetic justice? I will not speculate. I have the simple navigation map with his penciled notes he carried with him on his first combat mission. Also l have his flight logbook showing this date. The older l get the sadder l become when reviewing the history of all wars.

Very informative and interesting. Such brave young men, such a terrible waste.

Amazing !!! My Respect and Admiration 🙏

Thank you for sharing.

The folly and waste of war.. and yet, even all these years later, we have learnt nothing.. There are still a few egotistical, corrupt, self absorbed and full of self importance ‘people’ who start wars…and feed the war machine with fresh, young, innocent lives.. All while sitting back in safety surrounded by luxury and sycophants 😒 RIP all those who gave their lives for our freedoms, on both sides

What people don't take into account is that the "last toast to the Emperor" that the Kamikaze pilots made was not with rice wine but with amphetamines. They were made to bridle them with 50 cc of Philopon, a drug of Japanese design from the First World War. The one that the pilots used before this suicide was liquid, in small bottles of 50 cc. while the infantry before their Banzai attacks were given two "combat pills" - the way in which these troops were supplied with this amphetamine. Germany bought the manufacturing rights before the Second World War, it was made by the chemical company I.G. Farben, in Germany the name given was Pervitin, but the soldiers called it Pervitina, it was supplied to the SS troops and then to the population of the bombed cities, in the case of the pills the soldier took them voluntarily, but later it was included in synthetic chocolate under the name of Panzerchokolat. In World War II all participants used drugs, amphetamines, heroin, hashish derivatives, some extremely "toxic" like the cigarettes given to the soldiers of the USSR, in the case of the USA, amphetamines were used by P 51 Mustang fighter pilots, who made 6 hour escort missions for the B 17s, it was to keep them from falling asleep and they simply "fell" the pilots were so upset that they could only make one mission every 7 days... In history, not everything is what it seems or is said. I used Google Translator to write this.
