1:19 the translation is "Thanks for joining us today." but the voice actually said "Saraba da. Mata ao." It means "Adios. We will meet again." I cried a bit, because it is said that every Kamikaze Pilot will have this death altar on mainland, that the emperor will personally paid respect every year. So, it is kinda implied that, we will meet again in the shrine.
I actually had the privilege and the pleasure of seeing a real life Ohka at the RAF Museum in Cosford. The atmosphere around it felt so heavy and so dreadful, I felt really sad and depressed when I was near it. I can't imagine what it would've felt like to actually be flying one of these things, knowing you'd never come back alive.

The Germans did in fact have their own suicide rock propelled bomb. Called the Leonidas Squadron (like the Spartans) it was conceived by Otto Skorzeny and Hajo Herrman. They took a V-1 rocket and added a cockpit (FI 103 R). There were 70 volunteers for this squadron. It was called a total mission, in other words no coming back. Hanna Reitsch, the famous woman pilot persuaded Hitler to give the go ahead. The pilots only saw action at the very end of WWII when they knocked out 17 bridges to delay the advance of the Red army. 35 pilots were killed.
There's actually a WWII anthology anime called The Cockpit which has an episode centered around a young Ohka pilot and the bomber crew he's assigned to, it's one of the more touching episodes of the series.

The Ohka (Baka=Fool in the allies code) was really fast, more than 900 Km/h, but the firing rate of the allied fleet was insane, only a few % of them were effective in hitting the ships.
That had nothing to do with the AA fire, and more to do with the bombers carrying them being shot down by Allied fighters.
1:28 Sayonara and the explanation the planes name makes me realize how Japanese soldiers were so committed to their country, such as how they refused to wear parachutes, and that one soldier who stayed in the Philippines for years after the war ended. That dedication is something that is impressive.
Also, isn’t saying Sayonara kind’ve like saying good bye but you won’t see them again? I recall that from a Japanese friend, I could be wrong but not wrong to ask.
dedication or lunatic?
Yeah.......they were very committed alright. Just a shame about all the horrific slaughter of civilians (Chinese civilians in particular) and unarmed helpless prisoners of war. The Japanese military responsible for those countless atrocities utterly disgraced their cause. And no amount of sentimental, poetic stuff about cherry blossoms can hide that.

The idea that no one wants to die is the same for the Japanese people at that time. They decided they would attack because they thought they could protect their family and as many people as possible. They were more afraid of family deaths than themselves. They didn't like the deaths of more people than themselves. They just wanted to prevent their allies from dying. We cannot forgive the government at the time that created such a tragic situation. And this has to be passed on to the next generation in order not to repeat the same tragedy.
My point is that we have to avoid war.

I love how you can speak English how is the weather up in Japan? Do they make weird food? Do they have the highest suicide rates?😭😭😥😥😥
It's raining in Tokyo. Japan has a lot of water because it has a lot of rainfall and snowfall.
Japanese food respects various fresh ingredients and their characteristics, and expresses the beauty of nature and the changing seasons. In Japan, DASHI, Japanese soup stockis, always used when making soup. The soup stock is extremely delicious because it makes the most of the umami components, such as glutamic acid, inosine acid, and guanylic acid, contained in the food. Japanese food is healthy due to its excellent nutritional balance, and the obesity rate of Japanese is about one-tenth that of the United States.
I heard that a policeman killed a non-resisting human in the United States. Murder cases rarely occur in Japan. Japan has one-twentieth the murder rate per capita as compared to the United States.

I've known about the Ohka since I was a little kid building and flying balsa model planes. I thought it was a beautiful design. If intended for something other in some parallel universe, it might've been a fine little aero sports car. I thought of building it as a slingshot glider or a Jetex powered free-flight plane. But in all honesty I just could never do it.

The animation, combined with the music, was very moving. You could feel the overall melancholy despair of the mission.
You know, despite their fanaticism and destructive wake, the Kamikaze, I always felt sorry for them. Bunch of young pilots who threw their lives away for nothing, and they did it willingly out of devotion to their emperor. I remember one level in a game I played where I, somehow had to protect a carrier from these Ohka planes, it was tough, but I beat it. But then I thought, "Jesus, all this for a war they're still gonna lose, what about their families? What were they thinking?"

The simple idea of a plane designed specificly for this is specially sad,
Even the Germans made this but at least they knew not to pointlessly sacrifice manpower in a human missile
@Jon yeah well it’s different cultures. They were taught that it’s about the group more than the individual and that serving your country is one of your biggest purposes in life. They would rather die than surrender and even today Japan has a very high suicide rate because the only way to get them to surrender was to make them give up their warrior culture. Hell after WWII Japan abolished its army even though America didn’t want it to. Nowadays their military is more for national defense and not for interests abroad.
The most sad part was the results it got...horrifyingly enough the average Kamikaze attack costed less lives to pull off than a conventional one...
The comparison between the cherry blossom and the kamikaze pilots moved me to the point of me writing a series of waka poems. Thank you for this
This is honestly the most emotional documentary I've ever seen
It isn’t a documentary.
The allied reporting name for this aircraft was “Baka”, over 800 were built but only seven vessels, all escorts or supply ships, were sunk or damaged by “Baka bombs.” No major combatants of any kind were successfully attacked by Ohkas. They were usually destroyed before launching from their slow moving “Betty” bomber carrier plane.

Yes japan occupied my country in ww2 and gave us foul treatment but I still respect these ohka pilots. It is never easy to be a Kamikaze personal, you will never know the feeling of it until you are about to do it. The different between a soldier and a Kamikaze is that as a soldier you still know you have a chance to return home while Kamikaze you know for sure you are never returning home. Never again seeing your love ones, how will you feel?
+khant tun They literally threw their lives, to protect their land and people. You might not believe, but back then "their people" included your grand parents, as exactly same as people in Japan.
POSER
In my opinion once you get the decision of being a kamikaze is quite easier to deal with war because there is no chance at all, all the tickets are sold ..
Fool!
Your analysis is so far from the reality. I really suggest you do a bit more research before attempting to be an amateur oriental historian...
This song really touches your heart
I'd never heard of the Ohka until now... I have to say my regret for the pilots sacrifice is tempered by the knowledge of how they collectively treated prisoners and the peoples of the lands they invaded.
The Ohka was specifically designed as part of "Operation Ketsugo", the Japanese home-island defense plan. We needed to capture the southern island of Kyushu first, as a staging area, and unlike D-day, the Japanese knew exactly where we would need to land. According to US Dept of Defense, by Nov-Dec of '45, the time of the planned invasion, here's what we would have been facing:
OVER-THE-HORIZON, FOR FLEET ATTACK:
> Kamikaze pilots & planes, many of them Ohkas: ...................... 10k - 12k
> Kamikaze "Kaiten", manned torpedoes ..................................... 120
> 2-man, midget suicide subs, packed with explosives .............. 400
> Operational fleet submarines: ..................................................... 46
CLOSE-IN, TO ATTACK LANDING CRAFT:
> Hi-Speed Shinyo suicide boats: ........................................... 2,400
> Frogmen with explosives: .................................................... 4,000
ON THE LAND:
> Japanese Imperial Army: ........................................................ 4.3 million
> Civilian population actively resisting: ................................. 25-30 million.
It would have been a bloodbath! The A-bombs saved lives on all sides.
wheneve i hear Americans saying "mass killings saved lives" i have to step back in awe of the sheer mental gymnastics and denial it would take for someone to wholeheartedly make this statement.
@@ElRifrawad He aint wrong. Killing a few hundred thousand is much, much of a better cost than killing 40+ million in infinitely worse ways. Both are shit options but the atom bombs were the less shit option.
Official number of kamikaze flights was almost 5500. Some of them never even saw enemy, breaking down on the way to the mission. Most attackers were shoot down by aa guns or fighters. Only 8 to 9 % realy hit targets.
Very true. But 8 to 9% hit was quite high at that time for us Japanese against American fleet which were equiped with their sophisficated fire control systems with VT fuse technology and the radar based picket line tactics with lots of their advanced F6F air cover. Conventional torpedo attack and dive bombing by IJN Air Corps made only 0 to 1% hit in 1945...that is the number which was 85% only 3 years before, in 1942 in Indian Osean against the Royal Navy. How fast Americans developed their technology in 3 years is why we didn't have choice other than Kamikaze in 1945 and that's why we still respect the Americans.
When your plane gets hit but manages to hit the target
*top 10 anime comebacks*
HaloPro096 I would hardly call throwing 18 year-olds at American ships worthy. How much of this war do you actually know if cause America V Japan was nothing like America V Germany. It was a whole nother monster
Compare the strategy to that of ICBM warfare. You make clustered warheads comprised mostly of decoys -- perhaps 20x the number of real warheads.
That means that any anti-ICBM technology must destroy EVERY incoming warhead as any percentage of real warheads which make it through will still destroy the target. Destroying all incoming projectiles is numerically impossible.
Mutual Assured Destruction.
8-10 percent was actually more than conventional attacks by Japan
Most kamikaze were shot down but very few actually hit their target.
Not this one do..it was so fast that thr guns can't even hit it.
@@muhammadthepeacemaker106 if you fly "so fast" and you are flying toward the guy that is shoting at you then every bullet that is able to hit you have much more power... its basic physics. And its not so hard to hit the guy especialy that in the end he needs to hit the ship not some random place so in the last moment you can not do any manuvers with your plane.
They Biggest Ship Sink By Kamikazes Were Casablanca Escort Carriers, USS Bismarck Sea In Battle Of Iwo Jima
Americans was so afraid of kamikaze pilots because they where dangerous even after their plane was shoot down. If you shoot down plane it won't magical disappear but it will continue to fall, Japanese pilots knew that so they where approaching USA ships by flying straight down on them. I seen bunch of historical videos showing shoot down kamikaze planes that turned into ball of fire and hit the ship anyway.

I don't think the ohka was the most deadly kamikaze weapon, they weren't too successful, as I recall...
You're right. From what I've read, suicide attacks by traditional airplanes were more successful, if only because they were much more numerous, than okhas. Moreover, there is no record of an ohka ever getting near an aircraft carrier. All US naval ships sunk or forced to withdraw due to ohka attacks were small ships such as destroyers.

Japan Cherry Blossom : with human.

Yoooo thank you SO much for showing the back of the cherry blossom cause I was trying to make the plane in simple planes lol and idk what the engines looked like
In early 1945, Saratoga participated in the Battle of Iwo Jima as a dedicated night fighter carrier. Several days into the battle, she was badly damaged by kamikaze hits and was forced to return to the United States for repairs. While under repair, the ship, now increasingly obsolete, was permanently modified as a training carrier with some of her hangar deck converted into classrooms. Saratoga remained in this role for the rest of the war and was then used to ferry troops back to the United States after the Japanese surrender in August. In mid-1946, the ship was a target for nuclear weapon tests during Operation Crossroads. She survived the first test with little damage, but was sunk by the second test.

Well,, living on the Asian seaboard myself,, If Japan wasn't stopped we'd all be speaking Japanese now. We saw how they treated the Chinese in the 30's and POWs during the war. They were war-like and cruel, considering anyone who was not Japanese as animals, and they were the aggressors who started the war (along with the Nazis). Yes they were brave pilots, but no braver than anyone else. These pilots were the victims of a cruel Imperial order who sacrificed their lives in planes that mostly didnt even work, robbing these proud men of even having success in death.

At the time it was the best choice a pilot had. Also you have to understand social norms. The Japanese deemed what they did in China to be normal, thus they expected the US military to commit the same atrocities to them. Thus thousands of civilians were convinced to commit suicide to avoid getting raped by the US Marine Corps.
my guess is that they were extremely patriotic and when your nation is on the verge of being invaded... you'll happily gave your life away an attempt to save it?

It was hard to reconcile everything I've read about the Japanese during WWII, with what I witnessed in their country. Coming up next on the hit parade? CHINA. They're gearing up.
Dude. Those song choices were fcking perfect.
Der Nachteil der Ohka-Bombe war das sie von einem langsamen 2 Motorigen Bomber geschleppt werden musste, und die Alliierten nicht nur über die absolute Luftüberlegenheit, sondern auch über ein weitreichendes gutes Radar verfügten, und somit die Trägerflugzeuge samt Ohka-Bombe lange vor ereichen des Abwurfpunkts abschießen konnten.
This was amazing for a high school project
Many Kamikazes broke down before flight or regretted their decision mid-flight, however the tactic was still used since it was less costlier in planes than conventional attacks and the pilots can be resupplied easily
@So not Halal mode bro they probabally had blackboxes or heard it over the radio
One guy I knew when I lived in san Francisco told me his grandfather eventually told the family his job in the Japanese air service was training young men to fly kamikaze missions. I thought that was a really rough thing to live with from his grandad's position.
That's crazy! Thanks for sharing!

"Named "Ohka" or "chery blossom" because the falling blossom never returns to the tree... Just as the pilot of ohka will never return home." Sounds so deep but that just gave me a meaning of the MXY 7 Ohka
My dad served in the Pacific in WWII on the USS Vicksburg. In a horrible battle they were bombed by bombers and almost kit by a Kamikaze that was trying to hit a bigger ship. During a island battle they saw Japanese red cross boats going in heavy and coming out light? So they attempted to stop one and shot a shell overs its bow. Then 15 fully geared Japanese soldiers jumped out trying to swim away. They were sneaking troops and guns/ammo into battle. I have his captured Japanese rifle that still has all Emperors markings which later were to have been removed that was on that boat in my office and it's priceless to me.
I like how they said see you back at home base right in front of the kamikanze
Guy: See you Back at Base
Ohka pilots: so that was a
Fucking lie
My dad said when they were going over to Hiroshima one of these tried to attack his ship. They never fired a shot, it took off from under the Zero and crashed right into the ocean. They were trying to keep up with the Nazi's but did not have the engineers to make a rockets like the Nazi's.
They were carried under g4m betty bombers and the reason many on the fell in the sea was because they had very short range
36Km is a very big range for a WW2 naval weapon, bigger than the range of most ships guns, the Ohka was not a engineered failure, sure its range could be bigger, but it was big enough not to run out randomly out of fuel and fall on the sea, and its speed made it virtually unstoppable, and what your dad saw was a random bomb the plane dropped so it could manouver faster probably, Ohkas had 1 Ton of explosives on board, no way a Zero could carry them
Robert Smith a zero can't carry these.
My bad, your right it was a Betty! It was so far away he probably could not tell. He said it was flipping all over the place before it hit the water. My mom who lived in Hollywood in 1942 told me she saw a Japanese Zero fly over her house on 4047 Sunset Blvd. She saw lights in the sky, anti air craft guns shooting and loud sirens. Always an urban myth that a zero shot the Hollywood sign and then sped off over the Pacific. My dad gave me a M1 rifle and sword to took off a burned up Japanese calvary man. It has Japanese writing that saids I die for my emperor! My parents were so full of stories about the war and I miss them everyday.
yeah now that i think of it was probably the external fuel "droptanks"
For something that's purpose is very dark...
that's the most befitting name I've ever heard for any plane
This video is underrated. Beautiful music, editing, even the text clips... And unlike most ppl, their English is really good (there's ppl who are in America who miss type words and such on video titles and also in the video too. Wetherbe to try and be ' hip ' and ' cool ' or whatever)...
“Because the falling blossom never returns to the tree, just as the pilot of the ohka will never return home”
Damn that’s deep

How brave of the generals and engineering teams that designed these planes. Takes a set of big ones to tell someone else to sacrifice themselves for a dying cause. Hopefully we have all learned and never forget war is not like the movies.
That spirit for your children, your country, it is beautiful.
Calm yourself. Japan was defeated and occupied by Americans. It became a prosperous, successful, respected, peaceful nation. So the sacrifice was pointless and unnecessary. Nothing beautiful about it.

I feel sad for the pilots
Damn Il-2 Sturnmorvik 1946 i love this game
I believe an Ohka actually sank one ship, split it in two. A few ships were damaged. For 600 Ohka pilots and Bettys, that was the result.
Almost all Bettys were shot down in thir efforts.
In many cases the Betty bombers in reality were shot down before it could release the BAKA bomb
That was most often the case. The Bettys were very slow and if it managed to release the payload, the Ohkas were likely seen as a primary target, and were mostly shot down before reaching a vessel.
yep, thats why shortly before the end of the war they decided to stop sending them by air and redesigned them to be laucnhed from the ground.

Is it ok to cry? Because i'm crying so hard for this Kamikaze's. They also deserved empathy. T_T
The correct term is "sympathy".
@@hariszark7396 exactly, I don’t think OP was a surviving kamikaze pilot lmao
No. No it isn’t.
@@may2888 Forcefully indoctrinated youths who had no idea what they were doing, shoved into a plane with threats that if they didn’t kill themselves they would be shunned and their family dishonoured? It’s absolutely ok to feel sympathy for them. You don’t know what it’s like to be in their position.
Don't just cry, run out into the street screaming 'It's the war, the whole bloody war' and then there is gin. and snorkers. and
There really was only ever one effective solution to a philosophy such as this!
Yes.
Kamikaze Pilot: I’m in the air yay, now do I land?
Kamikaze Instructor: Good question.
If you're interested in kamikaze pilot stuff watch a movie called "The Eternal Zero." Great story.
I ordered the dvd from zon, it came from Hawaii!. A great Japanese film.
Japanese called it ohka as 🍒 blossom but the American military call it baka as a stupid bomb.
About 600 Ohka were built, with trainers!
Yes, you got one practice flight!
Only two hit ships.
It was almost a complete waste, of life and money.
Indeed they were not lucky. But i belive every sunken warship would cost more than all 850 Ohka's built. There were at least 3 escort carriers and some destroyers . Desperate times reqire desperate deeds. Also It is a great honor to sacrifice your life 4 ur country.
@@lard_on_a_pan from what i know the biggest ship they sunk was a Fletcher class dd, managed to hit 7 with 3 sunk
Germany: OK let's have radios to control our guided bombs.
Japan:
On April 1st, 1945 an Ohka was thought to be successful in partially damaging a gun turret on the US Navy battleship USS West Virginia (BB-48) off Okinawa. Transport ships were also hit during the same Kamikaze attack but it was uncertain whether these were Ohka’s or other Japanese aircraft. The first US Navy ship sunk by an Ohka was the destroyer USS Mannert L. Abele (DD-733) on April 12th, 1945 during the Battle of Okinawa. Less than 60 Okha’s are thought to have been used in actual combat. The US Navy's name for the Ohka, was Baka or Baka Bomb. The US Navy soon extended a defensive perimeter around
the fleet with ships providing heavy anti-aircraft fire and combat air
patrols to target the “Betty” bombers and take out the Ohka’s before they could be launched. Further ships were damaged in Ohka attacks at Okinawa but no capital ships were badly damaged yet alone destroyed and the overall impact of the Kamakase attacks using the rocket powered Ohka were deemed negligible in the battle.
US gunner when dive bombers attack: make your shots count!
US gunner when kamikazes attack: FIRE FIRE FIRE FIRE!!!!
Hmm, late Pacific war - American aircraft carrier, all alone, no escort whatsoever, sailing dead slow in a straight line, no anti-aircraft fire at all, no defensive fighter cover airborne - quite strange.
Maybe the entire crew got seriously drunk and are sleeping it off.

I know the torpedos ran on an alcohol-based fuel, and pilfering was bad enough that the Navy eventually had to poison the fuel to keep sailors from drinking it.
I felt weird and a little horrified when he said *bomb's away*
It makes me sad everytime I look at the Ohka knowing the pilot will never come back, will never grow old, won't even get a decent burial and most were just kids, around 17 year of age..."SAD"
