Info about the song:
Shuhei Mizushima written this song, he was a student in a army-associated secondary school. The song talks about the daily struggles of a secondary student, with themes like hating math and stuff, as there was no music score, the theme of "Battle Hymn of the republic", an American military song was used as the song.
This song was controversial at the time and in a society like imperial Japan, it's not hard to see why.
Mizushima was reprimanded by the school authorities for referring to the book bag as a beggar bag with these lyrics, and was banned from going out. However, the instructor of Kokuhanbun said that he was pleased that he would be satisfied if he write lyrics that are good.
In addition, Akikatsu Kato, the lyricist of "Infantry Song," was also a fellow student in the 10th period of Meiko.
Mizushima Shuhei wrote this song in 1913 when he was 15 years old while he was a student at a youth army officers school and presented it during a school festival. The principle got angry for calling the school bags “beggars bags” and he got punished by being put into a curfew for couple weeks. His Japanese language teacher was actually impressed by his lyrics and happily praised him for it. The song became popular among other army officer schools around the country and students would sing it until the end of ww2 in 1945. Mizushima himself passed away in 1947.

0:24 I found one error in the translation. シンコステータ means sincostan. Generally it's called trigonometric functions.

The writer,Shuhei Mizushima（水島周平）was reprimanded and punished by school,but his Japanese and Chinese teacher pleased this lyrics.
there is such thing as Japanese and Chinese. Kanji is part of Japanese language. The Chinese part is just Japanese and as well as many other countries used Chinese characters, these country tried to adopt latin alphabet and slammed characters as obsolete include China and Vietnam. Japan is no exception. Only Vietnam successfully adopt latin alphabet and the alphabet itself is also problematic
@@Teochewtuahang Korea also managed to (almost) entirely get rid of Hanja in its everyday use.
@@Teochewtuahang Chinese in here doesn't mean Chinese languange, but more like Chinese literacy and Philosophy (hence the lyrics has Khong zhi on it).
@@MrStupidarmy that's what I am saying
@@Teochewtuahang 漢文 is not just Kanji though
as a chinese and seeing how even the japanese think ancient chinese text is crazy, i can confirm
everyone's struggling at classical chinese
frick it
It also doesn’t help that they have hyper specific circumstances where the text are even relevant to today.
I’m all for teaching history but a good majority of those texts could’ve been saved for those who actually want to go insane trying to understand them.
@@KRDecade2009 Yep. But, classical chinese is required in chinese schools because it "increases writing skills" according to the syllabus makers in here. Therefore, unfortunately, many Chinese school students immediately drop out off Chinese classes in secondary schools just because of these classes.
@@meanshape101 You can drop out of Chinese classes? Where do you live? In mainland China/PRC, ancient Chinese is compulsory for Gaokao. I hated most of those, but there are enjoyable ones, I especially like Zhuangzi and Su Shi, their writings are much more interesting than most of the modern Chinese contents.
@@dianayu4453 You are from China? Damn that's cool. I'm from Malaysia actually, where you can prefer not to take Chinese in the SPM, an exam similar to the GaoKao but takes place in Malaysia and has a low passing rate.
@@dianayu4453 hey man do you by any chance know about murim genre? I've been reading a lot of that recently (One of which is "The Return of The Mount Hua Sect") I'm really loving the story and the characters
This hits differently when you are in High School or College. So relatable.
Real
Bek even in middle school this song is relatable, like in math they show us a triangle and tell us to calculate it, who even invented this stuff😂
POV: you’re an American POW in Philippines during WW2 and your Japanese guard starts singing Battle Hymn of the Republic
that'd just be sad if you could understand it tbh.It'd just drive home how young both of you are and instead of both of you being back home complaining about how hard maths is, you're stuck in a forest in the middle of Ilocos dying of malaria.

Well even as a Chinese person myself, I had a hard time when I was a student, especially the classical mandarin, not even having to mention that the Japanese who are not native mandarin speakers have to study it.

@@信衞門 well, as once a victim of kanji culture circle（汉字文化圈）, I can totally relate to how you feel about, it's like another metoo movement hahaha😂😂.
I think it's more like he hated Classical Chinese (漢文), not Kanji. He used Kanji quite fluently for this song
「針か蚓か知らないが」の部分、「針」や「蚓」はアルファベットの見た目を表しているものです。
That's interesting, I thought he meant under a microscope or something. But that makes total sense.
I think that lyric is "シンコステータの三角が" instead of "信仰テータの三角が", and means "The triangle of sin cos θ",
シン = sin
コス = cos
テータ = theta
の = 's
三角 = triangle
Bingo
Wow I think this is the one! I'm a Japanese and never understood what was said but I think you got it right!! Nice job men!

Even from 1913 the sentiment of the tired student remains. Its why I love humanity. Despite the language barrier, we still hate these classes.

I'm actually surprised that this actually there is something like, the Japanese made it so I guess they also do kind of have some sense of humor anyways... And btw as a student this is still too relatable
You might feel like most of Japanese don't have any sense of humor... 😂 I am the one Japanese, but I didn't find that people in my country 80 years ago had until I heard this song. Even though my grandparents also had! 😂 lol
100 years have passed and this is still relatable …especially the Confucius part,like Im Chinese but ancient Chinese literature is truly a pain in the ass 😭
It’s hard to imagine how much did this song motivated the morale of their soldiers
Probably got more people in the army to get away from the classes
110 years later and I'm laughing my ass off in the United States at the relatability of this.
Me too 😂
0:21
"信仰ステータ"ではなく"sin, cos, tan"です。
It's "sin, cos, tan" instead of "all of that thinking".

Students all around the world feel the same way every day!
Props for writing with the kyujitai (older) forms of kanji! It's a small detail but they were still used at the time this song was made
But there's just a few mistakes in kyujitai.
0:31 放物線x →拋物線o The character '拋' has been rewritten as '放' recently in Japanese.
0:40 The upper right part of the "博" should be "甫". Otherwise, it would be sinjitai, newer forms of kanji.
1:01 1:27 The upper right part of the "漢" should be "廿". Otherwise, it's sinjitai.
1:40 寝x(sinjitai) →寢o
1:53 "體/躰" is better, but "体" was also used then.
the needle threads and worms refers to latin alphabets (dutch english french etc.)
i suspect the "i am napoleon" means they wanna conquer europe so everyone speaks japanese, or napoleon's french was dissed by his classmates in school for having an italian accent

Because things like polynomials are useless but school teaches this shit anyway
Because you go to school

I would like to add the fact that the melody is now known in Japan as the promotion song of BIC Camera, a well-known home appliance retailer🤭
Meath does.
This is probably the tune that I know the most different lyrics for. There are just so many of them.
There's also Belfast Brigade about Irish resistance.
I'm a student and this song is very relatable

1:28 and that's where things get very messy afterwards
まるい緑の山手線 真ん中通るは中央線で始まる歌と同じメロディーですね。
i like how the song slowly modulated up
Its already 110 year, but this is still relate rn
0:26 ここの歌詞は信仰ステータではなく、sinθ、cosθ、tanθですね。昔は呼び方が違ううえ、略しているので聞き取れない日本人も多いです。
Being Chinese, the Confucius and Mencius one is way too relatable. Ancient Chinese philosophy (and literature in general) really is one big shithole for students.
Yeah I feel you, as a fellow Chinese person, damn the Confucius teachings are way too outdated
_Anarchy is peace_
_School is slavery_
_Freedom is strength_
1:15 As a Chinese myself
I had same!
I definitely Don't want school need us to remember! Everything! That old drunk Guy! Said! Back! 1000! Years ago. And most of them is about how to respect your empire and elder. How much cart and umbrella you need only use to show your respect for empire, boi I'm driving car now's day
酔っ払いのおっさんww
Well said, I am Chinese myself too, I totally feel you
シンコステータの三角が
Triangle of sin, cos and θ
Despite it's a really fun and interesting song that 100% represent our student's thoughts about school.
But we can't denied the advantages of going to school
The advantages can't be denied, however it doesn't seem pleasant at the time

The wisdom of our forefathers.
What I took away from this song and the description, since the writer of this song passed away at just the age of 49 in 1947 after WW2 ended, is just reinforcing the fact that, much like anyone else, they were once students and teenagers like us, who also faced similar mundane troubles of daily life, before being dragged into the horrors of war.
the anthem of every universty student who sleep only 3 hours and live by just pure caffeine
Never thought I'd hear the Japanese using the melody of Solidarity Forever and yet here we are
The old fonts of Kanji(旧字体) was the same of which we still use in Taiwan today.😜
Huh, whenever I think of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and Japanese, my mind goes to a completely different song...
To protect our mother Earth from any Alien attack...
Can we all agree that maths is the worst subject? I still have nightmares and I've been out of school for 8 years.
"Oh god, I hate learning Chinese!"
... me too
As a chinese person, I hate learning chinese.
Literally no alphabet. Pinyin isnt a thing beyond the elementary grades.
Even fcking korean has a alphabet. Wtf.
The Chinese in this song actually means Classic Literal Chinese so you gon hate it more lol
Even Chinese students hate learning (classical literal) Chinese.
Students of the world we must unite and create a classless society
