@@infernodragon1640 cutting penis of your enemy and then put it into the mouth of that corpse isn't reflect a human nature and in some cases Japanese did horrific things which were even greater than what Nazis did in Europe. watch this movie "The Flowers of War". I know, not all of them were evil but people in China, Korea, south east asia still haunted by their genocide.
@@akhtaruzzamanjoy8524 same with Native populations in America and Canada. Also the Eastern European countries often have population ls filled with haters of America. Because of the treacherous actions took by American soldiers during WW2. Also what about America doing mass shootings of surrendered Japanese soldiers? There is a reason Japan refused to surrender for so long.
@@hondacivic8222 Japanese took oath to fight till the very end. I forgot the battle name but in that particular battle, Japanese were surrounded by 50-60k allied soldiers but that 3k japanese soldiers fought till the end. They were brave no doubt that but their action towards civilian were brutal. What I am saying, people tend to forget what Japanese did and fully blamed on Nazis. Soviet also did some massacred during their march in Europe and that is why most of German civilian tried to move into western side.
Didn't expect the Japanese bomber captain to make it back, but he didn't take an explosive shell to the face like his unfortunate bombardier, and he would have had an oxygen mask within reach for that first breath. If you argue about crash survivability, you're just one of the "ones that couldn't wait" Unlike the Sailor, who joyously returns bedecked with a Purple Heart, the pilot returns somberly in defeat, bearing the dishonor of having survived a lost war, he has lost face both literally and figuratively. Contemplating Seppuku, he embraces his wife for one last time. It is only when the wife returns the hug, letting him know that she still loves and accepts him, that he truly makes it home alive. The cultural differences, and the contrasting portrayal of both victory and defeat, are as profound as the parallels, make this a true Masterpiece.
@@soksdoerng174 I doubt Seppuku too. I think Japanese pilot succeeded to escape the bomber cockpit and swim up, then he was rescued from the water by one of U.S. ships, so he became a prisoner of war. And he consequently returned back to Japan only when war is over. So he hadn't to commit Seppuku (otherwise it would be a massive suicide of national scale, imagine ALL the survivors slitting their guts...)
starflame34 Well most hated the film as a war film and only like it now for the explosions or soundtrack. Tora, Tora, Tora on the other hand is arguably the best film out there regarding Pearl Harbor
...and it, ironically (since you compare to Michael Bay), suggested that heavy emphasis on action and special effects are not necessarily exclusive of a profound/humanistic undertone.
Does it matter where your money goes? You pay for a ship by exchaning money (duh). What they do with the money you have given them is up to them, not you. You got nothing to do with that.
We forget that the "enemy" were just normal ppl from a different part of the world. We are all one! Let the horrors of human past teach us to never allow this to happen again. We are all one!
So u say u never thought it this way? Our supremacy over other living beings and our ability to make our choice is a gift. We can think, choose, look for truth... But only those people who makes the right choices would know greed and lust is a hindrance to make the path to human love challenging. Imagine, these gifts are free will, this life a test and greed&lust is a factor to make this test hard. If a human can pass these hard factors, he can learn to love.
After the war, there will be no more enemies, and nothing cannot be resolved through negotiation. What we need to beware of is the madness that once pushed us to the battlefield.
The fact that they made those two soldiers made it back made me smile. It shows how every soldier is only human; and they have families who are waiting for them back home.
I am not sure that it's the Japanese husband. Very hard for me to interpret. Japanese have different ways to express emotions. She doesn't look happy in a western sense. Also the boy.
@@marsmanderl it is the Japanese are different on the way they express I think there's a sign we do with our hands that's a good thing for us but a bad sign for them pretty much like the middle finger for them 😂 but yeah that's them two and the kid
Miguel Marn yes it’s the husband if you still didn’t know (feeling may be kept more inside for some then just letting it all go out at once, keeping things to your self is “common” for Japanese people. All people are different for how the express there feelings)
I saw this first when I clicked on a music video. I believe it's the first time in 5 years that I didn't skip a paid promotion. This is great. This is art.
This Is Very Touching, My Grandfather Passed Away Recently, He Was A World War 2 Veteran During The Pacific Theater, He Met A Japanese Veteran During WW2 Too, They Spoken With Each Other Then Became Friends. But Now They Both Are Dead Living In Peace.
My Grandfather fought in WWII in the Pacific Theater as well on a sub chaser. Years later he lived in Bainbridge Island, WA and there was a time that he had his Navy hat on and there were some Japanese Vets in town for an event. As my Grandfather walked by the Japanese saluted him in a solemn moment. I think that was a time when in his heart he knew the war was over even though it was decades later. They had a house that overlooked Puget Sound and he used to watch ships with his binoculars from the deck. I asked him once what his favorite ships were and he only responded with, "Im just happy to watch my Navy's ships pull into harbor and see them not damaged."
The poem of Simonov wrote at 1941 from the front of battle of Moscow, where he saw many death and sacrifice of Soviet soldiers, he himself may not comeback, with burning love to his wife, an actress, he wrote this poem for her with hope that one day, he will come home. He did not want to publish this, but all of his friend who read it pressure him and the poem was published ant December 1941 and quickly became the outcry of all soldiers through WW2.Long after that, this poem still wrote down many Vietnamese soldiers handbook , go with them to the most brutal battles. Many did not return, but many women still wait for them, even today.
Nearly no one in the west talks about the horrible price the Vietnamese people had to pay in that pointless war. Even Robert McNamara indirectly admits that t was based on a misconception in the documentary "The Fog of War". I wish your people a better future. Greetings from Germany
Mark Zimmerman yes no matter what side of war. They all have a purpose and that's to serve and protect there people. No matter the side they are still heroes and should never be portrayed as a villain but rather a person who was brave enough to protect the people they loved
@Mark Zimmerman Politicians declares war and young men dies following their orders. Don't they, all politicians, ever care for the foot soldiers who have wives and children who loves them and will have to bear the fear-filled countless days and nights waiting and wondering when and if they will ever come back? During the great Pacific War, one surviving WW II veteran can still recall his commander calling for reinforcements and the troop carrying ships send this one message back "WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO SEND". The horror of seeing their fellow soliders unburied bodies on the beaches, already crawling with maggots the next day send shivers of horror to their generals on those ships.
I watched as wargaming created this video. Japanese kamikaze pilot is the grandson of a real pilot. He's an actor. When he was offered this role, he simply could not refuse. For him, it's not just a game video, it's his family's story. That's how life works.
@@odonovan Kamikazes included all planes, though they seem to typically be dog fighters (as they aren't quite as useful against the Americans at this point). If they were unable to return to their carrier, they where typically instructed to hit 'em were it hurt.
@@odonovan Yes, it was not intended to be a kamikaze but, as i see it, after he launched his torpedo he saw that one engine was on fire then he checked if his partner was still alive. Since he was already dead he decided to go straight towards the ship and sacrifice himself.
Wait for me, and I'll come back! Wait with all you've got! Wait, when dreary yellow rains Tell you, you should not. Wait when snow is falling fast, Wait when summer's hot, Wait when yesterdays are past, Others are forgot. Wait, when from that far-off place, Letters don't arrive. Wait, when those with whom you wait Doubt if I'm alive. Wait for me, and I'll come back! Wait in patience yet When they tell you off by heart That you should forget. Even when my dearest ones Say that I am lost, Even when my friends give up, Sit and count the cost, Drink a glass of bitter wine To the fallen friend - Wait! And do not drink with them! Wait until the end! Wait for me and I'll come back, Dodging every fate! "What a bit of luck!" they'll say, Those that would not wait. They will never understand How amidst the strife, By your waiting for me, dear, You had saved my life. Only you and I will know How you got me through. Simply - you knew how to wait - No one else but you.
As Japanese, thank you for making nice pv‼︎ I respect both military japanese army and american army. Thank you for your service. Once enemy, always friends.
The trailer is made by the russians on the base of thecgreat russian poem about WWII by Konstantin Simonov. But keep praising them. Ok))) Especially for not A-bombing for the third time you should give the Mobel prize for a peace))))
Unforunately my great-grandfather didn't return home like theese guys did. He went to the battlefield and left there, fighting for the freedom and life. R.I.P. the platoon commander of 498 rifle regiment 232 Siberian infantry division. R.I.P. comrade senior leutenant.
It's really messed up how so many young pilots were intentionally manipulated into becoming kamikazes once Japan became desperate enough. End result was a bunch of young inexperienced pilots sacrificing themselves for what they believed in. For which, in the end, amounted to nothing more than delaying an inevitability and waste of life and resources.
Information has been coming to light over the last decade or so that they knew what they were getting into but many did not agree with their military government's desperation.
And yet it is either get in to be a guidance system for a bomb, or your family dies. Never blame the boots on the ground for the decisions the governments make.
Andrew Singleton All must be held accountable for their actions. Even if the actions themselves were carried out with non-malicious intent. "I was just following orders" or "they forced me to" are not not grounds to wholly absolve someone of responsibility/consequence. The consequences of being a kamikaze pilot was at the very least either a fiery death or a pointless one. Speculation after the fact does not change this reality. Nazi Germany (Hitler, his Inner Circle, and their fanatical followers) did many horrible things. At the very least starting the _Second WW_ is the consequence of their actions. Yet what about the regular German soldier? Not the SS, not those fanatically loyal to Hitler or his Inner Circle, just regular Germans through and through. What if it was just a regular man who gunned down crowds of non-combatants, stepped on the necks of French Resistance fighters fighting for their homes, and watched as his entire country was later raped, pillaged, and burned in a bout of mindless retaliation? Well, the combined actions of himself and also hundreds of millions led to the single greatest loss of life from war in human history. Point is, there are always consequences regardless of the person(s), circumstance, or any other factors. "Boots on the ground" might not have the blame solely rest on them depending on the action, but this again does not absolve them of responsibility.
Honestly, I almost skipped this add. But it caught my eye quick. After watching it I looked up the game add. And here I am. I wanted to leave a comment in this that bad. It’s really an amazing short video. I love it because I can feel it deep. Not from experience, but just from having family, and knowing people personally with family who were in combat. It makes me hope future wars could only be fought in video game style. Not to have families go through this pain anymore.
I bet that future "wars" will be fought in digital games , cause nobody wants real wars anymore, games can help us see who wins without blood splattering everywhere , and if anyone cheats , they automatically lose. :)
samuel rodriguez yes I just hate how some movies portrays one side as good in war when in reality there is no good or bad in war but rather courage and love. The people that fight in war do it to protect there nation and loved ones but they also have the courage that some don't have to do that. No matter the side in war each have the same purpose and both sides that are not in war wish for there loved ones to return home safely. I myself don't know anything about my ancestors and if they fought in war but seeing others getting ng to see there loved ones just makes me cry no matter the side.
Wargaming. This is very well done. Not only scenematic. But storywise too. Sometimes people forget even the enemy in a war. No matter what conflict. have family waiting at home. hoping to come back.
I agree WG did a great job capturing the emotions felt by military families during war. Cinematically, only minor costume/uniform imperfections were apparent on close inspection (Chaplain's captain bars placed parallel to the shoulder instead of adjacent). This certainly succeeds at evoking an emotional response...well done WG and thank you.
We are glad that we could bring some attention and respect for the people fight for their countries. Our games tap into the great advances in technology and machines produced by tremendous national efforts to win a war but it's important to remember, notably on the International Day of Peace!, the human side of these events. Thank you for your kind comments
I recall that being one of my thoughts in Iraq... Everyone on both sides, was some mothers' son, that they had nourished them with years of love, attention, only for it all to be for naught. Yet we do it anyway.
this still makes me tear up seeing how determined both sides are, the sailor knew he had to shoot the bomber down while the pilot knew he had to hit his mark. He could've easily climbed from the AA fire yet he choose to circle back and try to land a hit while the sailor could've run away like his comrades yet he went back to the AA gun.
@@admiralprince7925 Tell that to China and both Koreas (heck, all of Asia probably), there's A LOT of bad blood there. Issue is things like this are hardly forgiven.
@@Randomdudefromtheinternet still, EIGHTY YEARS (more or less). There's no point of bringing this shit up, most of that generation is gone. All we can do is learn from this and hopefully not do it again.
Rabbit Hole the saying actually is “those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it” Japan has learned. They are almost nothing like Imperial Japan now. Sure, there is still bad blood due to their actions but that will always be the case. It’s been 80 years and America (assuming you’re American) was the one who helped Japan steer away from the path that would lead to becoming what they once were.
@H.R. Geiger Counter Respectfully you are wrong. For them they are fighting for their families. I am not debating their motives but though the method they are using is extreme it would not be the first time. Tell me now that if the US was facing a superior force and we had no more young men to send into battle would we not fight with our women children and elderly. I do not condone in any way shape of form when people use desperate tactics. But anyone who has been in battle would understand. Do you know of the atrocities committed by the U.S. in other countries. I do. FIGHT TILL THE LAST. Tell me are your children willing to fight to defend their families. At what point do you give up.
This serves as a lesson to all of us who play WoW, WoT or even WoA that, in every match you play, the crews' lives are on the line. You can click out of a battle, but the crews in the destroyed vehicle can't, and their families are waiting for the time when they return home. Good luck on the battlefield, comrades.
Except for my Helena. It's a dedicated Pirate Ship no crew member has a family waiting for them. My Bismarck on the Other Hand. He will fight and he will insure his crews make it home and more importantly its fellow ships crews as well and if not. Well fight well cause if you don't He will take your crews with him .
"Wait for me" lyrics by Russian poet Konstantin Simonov. He was take part in WW2 At first, Konstantin Simonov refused to publish this poem, apart from its deeply personal and not intended for the general reader. After only a few close friends were devoted to the poet in his heart a secret. However, they insisted that the poem "Wait for me, and I will come back", which needed because thousands of soldiers became public. It was published in December 1941
Imagine waiting at home for your husband seeing a man dressed in uniform stood at your door you get your son to welcome his dad back home only to find a messenger handing you a note stating your husband has perished in battle
Wait For Me Wait for me, and I'll come back! Wait with all you've got! Wait, when dreary yellow rains Tell you, you should not.

This is beautiful WarGaming finally truly made an honorable hommage to Alliend AND Axis soldiers who both gave their sacrifice for their country. Respect for WG and those soldiers alike ofcourse.
One little touched I love is the charms the IJN pilot had and his wife had the polar opposite as those are charms supposed to bring about luck to those who have them

The first and only ad I've ever watched, then searched to find, and then bookmarked to show others. What an awesome short, this should actually be up for some sort of an award!!!
you know you need to support the developers when they just don't take money and profit from fans these devs, they reinvest money to make us proud of them, they do their best to make us enjoy everything they create another time, they proved that they deserve all our support, this movie is beautiful, thanks Wargaming
This ad honestly is beautiful. The music, the graphics, the action, everything just adds up, to become something that millions stopped to watch, and actually found themselves enjoying it. A true masterpiece, without the need for any backstory, any dialogue, or even a proper villain/hero. Whoever made this, I thank you for bringing this story to our world. And I think I can say the same for everyone who's seen this.
i remember as a small child my father coming home from Vietnam and my mother crying and hugging my dad i didn't understand at the time as i was a small child but my father had been wounded badly and my mother later told me she couldn't leave us at the time me and my sister were to young and my mom and dad had no family in USA at the time just them two.. i just know that i was super happy my dad was home~~
My grandfather was wounded in the head, defending Moscow in the autumn of 1941, when he fell completely blind in the battle for Moscow. Grandfather and grandmother were married before the war. Grandfather decided that he would not return to his wife, that she did not need a cripple. She herself was looking for him, he was in the hospital for cripples. Then they had three children, my father was the youngest. Love is the great power given to us by God! And war is the product of the devil!
@@Дмитрийоколов-ч8щ Nope my friend, love may be given us by God, maybe, but war is the product of mankind. Let us not play pass-the-bucket with comfortable opposing metaphysical figures. War is something WE HUMANS invented. We hold the copyright on it.
When I got this as an add, I actually watched it completely. I usually always skip adds but this was honestly so good and touching. This is how you do it guys... This is how you do it.
A Chinese here, Chinese and Koreans shouldnt feel bitter, unrepresented or calling it ignorant or inappropriate by this scene. These were by the game designers clearly to be two good soldiers who deserve respect and return to love like many other countrymen, like theirs. We even adopted Japanese lost orphans after the war you know. Why should countries be biased other countrymen while we know we are all humans, regardless of nation, that are all prone to brainwashing? It really doenst matter where you come from.
"Real heroes never stop fighting their battles, even if they already know war is lost" Thank you for your sacrifice for all men and women who fought for freedom all around the world
I never saw this video myself until I saw it as an ad while watching the old History Channel series "Dogfights" here on TH-cam. To see both that Imperial Japanese pilot and the U.S. sailor survive their confrontation and return home to their families, even if they still carry some battle scars from their earlier conflict, is a very heartwarming moment. Also, the original poem written by the Soviet poet was very well done to convey the message. Nice work, Wargaming.
It's a hope, but sadly one that I feel will never be true, right now I am reminded of what Oppenheimer mournfully said when the final atomic bomb test was finished, "I have become death destroyer or worlds."
Almost 4 years old and this is the first time I’ve seen this, parts of this have been used in a music video. This is and absolute masterpiece and shows the true human cost of war. The cost of life is why war should never be fought by drones, the cost of life is what makes us reticent to go to war. REAL WAR MUST NEVER BECOME A GAME.
I truly cant believe how 493 People disliked this video. It shows a fair depiction of each side, and how both side suffered. How families were made, and torn. How brothers met, and fought. This 4 minute short can do much more than Hollywood can ever do, thank you Wargaming. Thank You.
As a USAF Veteran. Thank you. For myself. For my brothers and sisters in arms. In this country and in all others. For all of us who strive to defend the places we love and the values we believe in. for all of those who can not speak these words.. Thank you.
N Car, you're entitled to your opinion. A big part of why we serve is to ensure you continue to have the right to express that opinion, openly and without fear of repression or reprisal by anyone who may wish to take that freedom away from you. I don't have to agree with your opinions or beliefs to realize you have as much right to them as I do my own. So long as those beliefs do not come into conflict to the point of threat of harm to others rights, you're welcome to them.
Well it's not like US military conquer anything anymore. They've learned their leasons after Iraq and Afghanistan. Now it's all about provoking civil wars, supplying various rebels and terrorists, destroying countries from inside. Because why would you sacrifice your precious US marines to capture these Libyan oil rigs, when you can just give some dirty 3rd-world scums bunch of AK's and make them kill each other?
You serve yourself and your masters with a merit badge like unthinking dogs. If you knew the history of the US military you would be appalled. All this conquering, injustice and puppet governments in the name of freedom and democracy. I'm sure you have a pathetic and brainwashed excuse for every act of tyranny. Libya, Nicaragua, Vietnam just being the most obvious. How do trash like you think you are protecting anyones freedom when you actually make americans less safe?
I am thoroughly impressed with this. I haven't sat through an entire ad in quite a while, let alone one that could bring a tear to my eye. Absolute masterpiece!!!
Come home A man walked through a door, walked till' he reached the shore. The sun had long gone under and all he heard was thunder. And then the sea turned red and all good men were dead, A sky of ash where none were, and nowhere he could wander His world all set a blaze, an all devouring maze. His fate had drifted far, so far away from home, if only it had struck him, if only he had known. Don't march forward brave soldier. Don't send us this red dawn. Turn back before another, is lost for us to mourn. PS: I am not a native speaker so I obviously usually don't often write like that so please don't be too hard on my little effort. I just thought it fits the theme and I had the lines in my head after watching so here we are.
I don’t know why but I just can’t stop watching the ad it is so cool how they make a story with the ads and show a battle that shows what they are showing new in the game and the heroic things that both sides do in the ad is cool
i wish world of warships would include sailor animation in the games ... like sailors shooting AA's and people in the bridge ... manning the torps nd stuff... it would be hell awesome

No Seppuku. He followed the Tao like a real samurai. And if he survived, then this is his Tao
I doubt Seppuku, that's only when a Samurai that's been defeated. He was doing a Kamikaze but survived.
@@soksdoerng174 I doubt Seppuku too. I think Japanese pilot succeeded to escape the bomber cockpit and swim up, then he was rescued from the water by one of U.S. ships, so he became a prisoner of war. And he consequently returned back to Japan only when war is over. So he hadn't to commit Seppuku (otherwise it would be a massive suicide of national scale, imagine ALL the survivors slitting their guts...)
I always thought that the pilot didn't get out. Boy, am I glad I was wrong.
Damn guys just be happy they didn't die
A true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him. This cannot be more correct
Very well said.
But some general fight for more paper in his wallet.
But some general fight for more paper in his pocket
this line is so perfect that it strikes where it should

That moment you realize a 4 minute short like this gives more emotion than Michael Bay's "Pearl Harbor".

Tora, Tora, Tora on the other hand is arguably the best film out there regarding Pearl Harbor
Not to undercut this FANTASTIC commercial, but getting more emotion than a Michael Bay film is like being the best yodeler in Harlem.

We forget that the "enemy" were just normal ppl from a different part of the world. We are all one! Let the horrors of human past teach us to never allow this to happen again. We are all one!

So u say u never thought it this way? Our supremacy over other living beings and our ability to make our choice is a gift. We can think, choose, look for truth...
But only those people who makes the right choices would know greed and lust is a hindrance to make the path to human love challenging. Imagine, these gifts are free will, this life a test and greed&lust is a factor to make this test hard. If a human can pass these hard factors, he can learn to love.
Even the Nazi's. people forget that those German soldiers just wanted to get home to their families
Let's fight the New World Order instead!
After the war, there will be no more enemies, and nothing cannot be resolved through negotiation. What we need to beware of is the madness that once pushed us to the battlefield.
The fact that they made those two soldiers made it back made me smile. It shows how every soldier is only human; and they have families who are waiting for them back home.
I am not sure that it's the Japanese husband. Very hard for me to interpret. Japanese have different ways to express emotions. She doesn't look happy in a western sense. Also the boy.
@herjuno Oh, sorry. I didn't notice you're Japanese? What is your interpretation? It is her husband?
@@marsmanderl it is the Japanese are different on the way they express I think there's a sign we do with our hands that's a good thing for us but a bad sign for them pretty much like the middle finger for them 😂 but yeah that's them two and the kid

This Is Very Touching, My Grandfather Passed Away Recently, He Was A World War 2 Veteran During The Pacific Theater, He Met A Japanese Veteran During WW2 Too, They Spoken With Each Other Then Became Friends. But Now They Both Are Dead Living In Peace.

Hello, it's NCIS.
@@clemson9967 what was the channel name, was it still the fbi name or was it different?
My Grandfather fought in WWII in the Pacific Theater as well on a sub chaser. Years later he lived in Bainbridge Island, WA and there was a time that he had his Navy hat on and there were some Japanese Vets in town for an event. As my Grandfather walked by the Japanese saluted him in a solemn moment. I think that was a time when in his heart he knew the war was over even though it was decades later. They had a house that overlooked Puget Sound and he used to watch ships with his binoculars from the deck. I asked him once what his favorite ships were and he only responded with, "Im just happy to watch my Navy's ships pull into harbor and see them not damaged."
The poem of Simonov wrote at 1941 from the front of battle of Moscow, where he saw many death and sacrifice of Soviet soldiers, he himself may not comeback, with burning love to his wife, an actress, he wrote this poem for her with hope that one day, he will come home. He did not want to publish this, but all of his friend who read it pressure him and the poem was published ant December 1941 and quickly became the outcry of all soldiers through WW2.Long after that, this poem still wrote down many Vietnamese soldiers handbook , go with them to the most brutal battles. Many did not return, but many women still wait for them, even today.
Nearly no one in the west talks about the horrible price the Vietnamese people had to pay in that pointless war. Even Robert McNamara indirectly admits that t was based on a misconception in the documentary "The Fog of War". I wish your people a better future.

Thank you!
Mark Zimmerman yes no matter what side of war. They all have a purpose and that's to serve and protect there people. No matter the side they are still heroes and should never be portrayed as a villain but rather a person who was brave enough to protect the people they loved
@Mark Zimmerman Politicians declares war and young men dies following their orders. Don't they, all politicians, ever care for the foot soldiers who have wives and children who loves them and will have to bear the fear-filled countless days and nights waiting and wondering when and if they will ever come back? During the great Pacific War, one surviving WW II veteran can still recall his commander calling for reinforcements and the troop carrying ships send this one message back "WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO SEND". The horror of seeing their fellow soliders unburied bodies on the beaches, already crawling with maggots the next day send shivers of horror to their generals on those ships.
I watched as wargaming created this video. Japanese kamikaze pilot is the grandson of a real pilot. He's an actor. When he was offered this role, he simply could not refuse. For him, it's not just a game video, it's his family's story. That's how life works.
@Zasada, that Japanese pilot was NOT a kamikaze. He was flying a torpedo bomber.
Awesome!
The Real O'Donovan I’m pretty sure kamikaze planes are those Mitsubishi’s right
@@odonovan Kamikazes included all planes, though they seem to typically be dog fighters (as they aren't quite as useful against the Americans at this point). If they were unable to return to their carrier, they where typically instructed to hit 'em were it hurt.
@@odonovan Yes, it was not intended to be a kamikaze but, as i see it, after he launched his torpedo he saw that one engine was on fire then he checked if his partner was still alive. Since he was already dead he decided to go straight towards the ship and sacrifice himself.

Rarely do we see the Japanese being portrayed as humans in western-made war videos like this. kudos to wargaming.
It's really messed up how so many young pilots were intentionally manipulated into becoming kamikazes once Japan became desperate enough. End result was a bunch of young inexperienced pilots sacrificing themselves for what they believed in. For which, in the end, amounted to nothing more than delaying an inevitability and waste of life and resources.
Information has been coming to light over the last decade or so that they knew what they were getting into but many did not agree with their military government's desperation.
And yet it is either get in to be a guidance system for a bomb, or your family dies.
Never blame the boots on the ground for the decisions the governments make.
Andrew Singleton
All must be held accountable for their actions.
Even if the actions themselves were carried out with non-malicious intent.
"I was just following orders" or "they forced me to" are not not grounds to wholly absolve someone of responsibility/consequence.
The consequences of being a kamikaze pilot was at the very least either a fiery death or a pointless one. Speculation after the fact does not change this reality.
Nazi Germany (Hitler, his Inner Circle, and their fanatical followers) did many horrible things. At the very least starting the _Second WW_ is the consequence of their actions.
Yet what about the regular German soldier? Not the SS, not those fanatically loyal to Hitler or his Inner Circle, just regular Germans through and through. What if it was just a regular man who gunned down crowds of non-combatants, stepped on the necks of French Resistance fighters fighting for their homes, and watched as his entire country was later raped, pillaged, and burned in a bout of mindless retaliation? Well, the combined actions of himself and also hundreds of millions led to the single greatest loss of life from war in human history.
Point is, there are always consequences regardless of the person(s), circumstance, or any other factors.
"Boots on the ground" might not have the blame solely rest on them depending on the action, but this again does not absolve them of responsibility.
Then maybe you've seen that because it's not a western-made war video? It was made in Russia and all actors are Russians, except for Japanese family.
Honestly, I almost skipped this add. But it caught my eye quick. After watching it I looked up the game add. And here I am. I wanted to leave a comment in this that bad. It’s really an amazing short video. I love it because I can feel it deep. Not from experience, but just from having family, and knowing people personally with family who were in combat. It makes me hope future wars could only be fought in video game style. Not to have families go through this pain anymore.
same story here, exactly,

yeah same here , 31 dicember and i got this art piece , good luck and happy new year

I bet that future "wars" will be fought in digital games , cause nobody wants real wars anymore, games can help us see who wins without blood splattering everywhere , and if anyone cheats , they automatically lose. :)
I love how this portrayed that everyone is human in war and people can come back home even when they by all accounts should've been dead.
samuel rodriguez yes I just hate how some movies portrays one side as good in war when in reality there is no good or bad in war but rather courage and love. The people that fight in war do it to protect there nation and loved ones but they also have the courage that some don't have to do that. No matter the side in war each have the same purpose and both sides that are not in war wish for there loved ones to return home safely. I myself don't know anything about my ancestors and if they fought in war but seeing others getting ng to see there loved ones just makes me cry no matter the side.

I agree WG did a great job capturing the emotions felt by military families during war. Cinematically, only minor costume/uniform imperfections were apparent on close inspection (Chaplain's captain bars placed parallel to the shoulder instead of adjacent). This certainly succeeds at evoking an emotional response...well done WG and thank you.
We are glad that we could bring some attention and respect for the people fight for their countries. Our games tap into the great advances in technology and machines produced by tremendous national efforts to win a war but it's important to remember, notably on the International Day of Peace!, the human side of these events. Thank you for your kind comments
I recall that being one of my thoughts in Iraq... Everyone on both sides, was some mothers' son, that they had nourished them with years of love, attention, only for it all to be for naught. Yet we do it anyway.
i see you everywhere, Yankie!
I agree this made me shed a tear at the end
this still makes me tear up seeing how determined both sides are, the sailor knew he had to shoot the bomber down while the pilot knew he had to hit his mark. He could've easily climbed from the AA fire yet he choose to circle back and try to land a hit while the sailor could've run away like his comrades yet he went back to the AA gun.
This is the first and probably the only time I’ll see Japan portrayed as human and not just the biased west.

Rabbit Hole the saying actually is “those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it” Japan has learned. They are almost nothing like Imperial Japan now. Sure, there is still bad blood due to their actions but that will always be the case. It’s been 80 years and America (assuming you’re American) was the one who helped Japan steer away from the path that would lead to becoming what they once were.

@H.R. Geiger Counter Respectfully you are wrong. For them they are fighting for their families. I am not debating their motives but though the method they are using is extreme it would not be the first time. Tell me now that if the US was facing a superior force and we had no more young men to send into battle would we not fight with our women children and elderly. I do not condone in any way shape of form when people use desperate tactics. But anyone who has been in battle would understand. Do you know of the atrocities committed by the U.S. in other countries. I do. FIGHT TILL THE LAST. Tell me are your children willing to fight to defend their families. At what point do you give up.

After only a few close friends were devoted to the poet in his heart a secret. However, they insisted that the poem "Wait for me, and I will come back", which needed because thousands of soldiers became public. It was published in December 1941

To see both that Imperial Japanese pilot and the U.S. sailor survive their confrontation and return home to their families, even if they still carry some battle scars from their earlier conflict, is a very heartwarming moment. Also, the original poem written by the Soviet poet was very well done to convey the message. Nice work, Wargaming.
why is a 4 minute video sadder than 99% of movies?
The last part brings tears to my eyes.I am happy that both of them could return home to their loved ones. ❤❤
Notice how a scar remains. A scar will always remain when you've served in war, some physical some emotional and it reminds us of what happened
I am so sad for those people who lost their love and there family's in war and I hope war never happens again
yeah lets hope so.. war is like hell...
+YMT 1945 stop playing war games :v
Well in World of warship no one's die you know they respawn after the battle finished. :v
It's a hope, but sadly one that I feel will never be true, right now I am reminded of what Oppenheimer mournfully said when the final atomic bomb test was finished, "I have become death destroyer or worlds."
sorry to burst your bubble but there will be no end to war I'm afraid...
Find your publicity team and give them a raise. Amazing, just. Need to throw some onions
わずか4分でこれほど心が揺さぶられる映像があるだろうか?
Can Wargaming make a World War 2 Movie, or at least some of the major naval battles? Because this is an awesome job.
How do I like a message twice?

"Wait for me and i'll come back..." by Konstantin Simonov. It's a strong thing!
don't worry, I'm just sweating through my eyes
you might want to get that checked XD
Probably a skin disease or something.
R.I.P to all the fallen soldiers of WW2
Almost 4 years old and this is the first time I’ve seen this, parts of this have been used in a music video. This is and absolute masterpiece and shows the true human cost of war.
The cost of life is why war should never be fought by drones, the cost of life is what makes us reticent to go to war. REAL WAR MUST NEVER BECOME A GAME.
I really hope War Gaming and War Thunder get into a duel of "Best CGI Trailer", because War Gaming just played into it and they are coming out STRONG
One of the best anti-war video I have ever seen.
It really reminds me of my beloved cat, who disappeard 2 months ago. I love him very much and I hope he comes back, the poem matches his story.
All the soldiers, of every countries, only have a wish, back their homes
Black Panther what do you mean were the fuck do you live?

This is the best ad that I've seen in a long time. Hit me right in the feels.
THESE are the golden moments that you find on TH-cam every once in a while. Well Done WoWs.
World Of Warships: *makes a movie*
Hollywood: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN!
hollywood still fucks it up
I truly cant believe how 493 People disliked this video. It shows a fair depiction of each side, and how both side suffered. How families were made, and torn. How brothers met, and fought. This 4 minute short can do much more than Hollywood can ever do, thank you Wargaming. Thank You.
Dislikes from the country 404, dude
This is great, it's probably the first add I didnt skip in a long time
As a USAF Veteran. Thank you. For myself. For my brothers and sisters in arms. In this country and in all others. For all of us who strive to defend the places we love and the values we believe in. for all of those who can not speak these words.. Thank you.
And yourself, sir. From a ground-pounder.
US military are hardly more than conquering mercenaries who deserve to be spit on
N Car, you're entitled to your opinion. A big part of why we serve is to ensure you continue to have the right to express that opinion, openly and without fear of repression or reprisal by anyone who may wish to take that freedom away from you.
I don't have to agree with your opinions or beliefs to realize you have as much right to them as I do my own. So long as those beliefs do not come into conflict to the point of threat of harm to others rights, you're welcome to them.
Well it's not like US military conquer anything anymore. They've learned their leasons after Iraq and Afghanistan. Now it's all about provoking civil wars, supplying various rebels and terrorists, destroying countries from inside.
Because why would you sacrifice your precious US marines to capture these Libyan oil rigs, when you can just give some dirty 3rd-world scums bunch of AK's and make them kill each other?
You serve yourself and your masters with a merit badge like unthinking dogs. If you knew the history of the US military you would be appalled. All this conquering, injustice and puppet governments in the name of freedom and democracy. I'm sure you have a pathetic and brainwashed excuse for every act of tyranny. Libya, Nicaragua, Vietnam just being the most obvious.
How do trash like you think you are protecting anyones freedom when you actually make americans less safe?
One of the most beautifully done ads made. The poem makes it even more touching
I am thoroughly impressed with this. I haven't sat through an entire ad in quite a while, let alone one that could bring a tear to my eye. Absolute masterpiece!!!
Come home
A man walked through a door,
walked till' he reached the shore.
The sun had long gone under
and all he heard was thunder.
And then the sea turned red
and all good men were dead,
A sky of ash where none were,
and nowhere he could wander
His world all set a blaze,
an all devouring maze.
His fate had drifted far,
so far away from home,
if only it had struck him,
if only he had known.
Don't march forward brave soldier.
Don't send us this red dawn.
Turn back before another,
is lost for us to mourn.
PS: I am not a native speaker so I obviously usually don't often write like that so please don't be too hard on my little effort.
I just thought it fits the theme and I had the lines in my head after watching so here we are.
this was amazing
Thats what i call art
Is this your work?
@@edwinstafford287 Yes. Why?
@@Arcaryon I was wondering; couldn't find it on the web.
My God Art Department is on their shit...pulling at the heart strings like the absolute final boss Bravo a beautiful 4 minutes
This is THE TRAILER. Wow im speechless, this should be a movie.
I don’t know why but I just can’t stop watching the ad it is so cool how they make a story with the ads and show a battle that shows what they are showing new in the game and the heroic things that both sides do in the ad is cool
X2
If wargaming made a full length movie it would probably end up getting at least three Oscars.🤣🤣 hits right on the spot
And this is a gaming company to lmao
would not have received, an Oscar is given not for talent, but for where they fuck you.
this ad here deserves three oscars
@@IntegralKing it wont get that cuz its not a feature film, but it deserves it
i wish world of warships would include sailor animation in the games ... like sailors shooting AA's and people in the bridge ... manning the torps nd stuff... it would be hell awesome
It would be awesome but it would be difficult to make them look good and efficiently rendered.
Would also be sad since AA crew/guns get destroyed like every 2 seconds to HE
They already did it, but just only in the port.
But I do think I heard something about crew appearance at port for future update. I forgot the details though.
