I seem to recall a whole plotline about the emperor's son betraying him and you having to put him down in a giant mech. Is that Uprising, or a parallel universe?
That's because in the Empire faction, we're not fighting for a higher position, we are fighting for the Empire itself. Both Allies and Soviet's cause of betrayal is because they saw us as a threat to their position.

J.K. Simmons was silly, Tim Curry was a fitting riot, but George Takei in this is just so ludicrous that it would be an insult to NOT have him involved.
I thought George Takei was rather subtle, still hammy but nowhere near the Scenery-devouring contest between Simmons and Curry. Either way it is glorious.
@Rick O'Shay So that would be a Canadian playing an American POTUS, and a guy with a German name who played a Russian on television playing another Russian?
I was wondering what could be the reason for a well known actor like George Takei to play in something like this. I seriously doubt that money was the main reason. My only explaination is that he really genuinly had the time of his life, participating in such absurdity.
Kinda liked the 2 differing strategies the Emperor and Tatsu has. Tatsu's main strategy is just straight up crushing the opponent on the field. The Emperor instead prefer to demoralize the opponent so that after the war's done, they won't be opposing him. Basically, the Emperor goes for the long game, Tatsu's the shorter game.
On the other hand, focusing on purely moral objectives means the enemy's war machine and infrastructure is left standing, free to pump out all the resources needed to crush you. Not to mention diverting resources for the defense of what's essentially a vanity project (destroying Lenin's statue and replacing it your own, all the while people bleed and machines break for it. How foolish). And if you ask me, an army with dwindling food, supplies and weapons gets demoralized faster
More "society is made of human" vs "society is made of stuff" If a society is made of human, the best strat is to have them to stop fighting. If society is made of stuf, the best strat is to destroy ennemy stuff. Tatsu only consider stuff because he studied robotic, where stuff can replace human.
+TheNerd Yeah basically. The President's character was too much of a strawman/sterotype to be real. So it makes sense that the president was a spy for the Empire. Also take into consideration how the president was against joining the Russians to fight the Rising sun, and how he tried to cause world chaos to avoid it. It would make sense for the Empire to have him do that so that they'd be able to take over the world after the chaos.
I do like the conflict between generations, the modern general saying they should attack the enemy’s industrial capability and the classic emperor saying breaking the enemy will and morale is the way to victory.
I like how with using so little as only actors the game developers managed to tell a cohesive story of a rise-development-victory of a new Japanese empire within 15 mins. Bow to the actors - their skill made it so much more interesting to follow. I wish more modern games would use real actors/video instead solely computer graphics.
Say what you will about C&C's gameplay, or that this stuff is cheesy, but effective writing, directing and acting with good sets and costumes help to build the worlds well, whether it's the Tiberium or Red Alert timelines.
In the real WW2, the imperialist from Japan attacked it. "You cannot invade the mainland America. There will be gunblades from all over the grass."- Admiral Yamamoto
Soviets changed the future by killing Einstein. USA never nuked Japan, so they were not forced to surrender. Japan took Pearl Harbour and created great technology (because they were not as ravaged by ww2). Behind the back of the allies and soviets who were busy fighting each other, Empire of the Rising Sun was created.
Most based so far - father-son conflict goes along with tradition-progress one. Both go overcoming critical challenges together and, eventually, come to understand and respect each other. Methinks this is the very rare yet important narrative for modern world. ૮(˶╥︿╥)ა
For a big chunk of Japan history the Emperors were kinda figureheads/pope figures in one. Shoguns might have ruled on their own, but technically they answered to the Emperor and it granted them legitimacy. When Tokugawas couldn't get rid of foreigners in the middle of XIX century due to inferior technology, their ability to remain in power and do their job was questioned, their long enemies jumped on the opportunity and bakufu was done (it's more complicated than that, it's just a short version).
@@DBT1007 also because theres honestly no real reason to get rid of the royal family. All the commander is doing is just stir up unnecessary trouble and increase his opposition due to the emperor being the spiritual figure of japan, in exchange for what? The royal family already gave you all the influence and power you need
In my opinion, the story told in the Empire's cut scenes is the best in the game. The characters are bright, memorable and endearing. Other factions are not so good.
@@mateusmachadomartinsjunior4309 In my opinion, the Soviet faction was good in RA1 and excellent in RA2 and RA2 YR... And in RA3, this leapfrog of ridiculous clowns is not interesting to watch. The characters don't evoke any feelings.

christian apolloni The GLA would be annihilated by NOD, you can't even compare the two factions. Nod has terrorist and suicide bombers themselves. By all definitions, they would be considered terrorists, if they weren't a global superpower. They have something the GLA doesn't have though. Technology. Laser technology, cloaking technology and the most important part, cyborg drones controlled by an AI, Legion. You're looking at a terrorist army that puts ISIS and Al-Queda to shame, and could rival our real US military. The GLA wouldn't even stand a chance, especially after they realized their biological and chemical weapons have no effect on cybernetic drones. Lets not forget the fact that the Brotherhood of Nod is armed with nuclear weapons. How good exactly is Jarmen against a bullet proof cyborg commando with laser rifles, flamethrowers and plasma guns? How exactly would you defend against a Nod commander like myself who would have stealth tanks, cyborg armies and commandos appear out of nowhere and destroy your base before you even knew what happened? Believe me I use that strategy all the time with Nod. You wouldn't even be able to find my base let alone attack it. Stealth is their best asset. Hell if I got really bored, I'd just nuke your base and wait for everyone else to die of radiation poisoning. (Not exactly a stealthy approach, but really cool none the less) Nod would Obliterate the GLA, and has never played by the rules of other countries like China, Russia, and the US. Terrorism itself is one of their specialties. NOD will use every strategy that gives them the upper hand, including burning your entire villages to ash with flame tanks/infantry, while poisoning civilians with Tiberium chemical weapons.

Sorry, but war is more than just about an ideal. It's psychological, and you're up against an opponent who has superior technology, tactics, creativity, and unethical means.

One issue. You see that last scene? I've been there. That island is known as Chinaman's Hat, due to its shape. That's not on the North Shore of Oahu. That's on the East Side.

The Empire's campaign ive always love due to the fact That the emperor doesn't betrayal or attack you due to you gaining power/influence. instead he sees your worth and gives you more power. a nice change to the norm.
I can imagine this going through the Imperial commander's head as the Emperor speaks: "A shogunate? Do you really want to bring that back, your majesty? Last time the shoguns had a lot of power, they cucked the monarchy and made it their puppet. Oh, well, if I get to be the shogun, I won't turn down the chance to become your puppetmaster."

Oh wow a cut scene with a non stationary camera… I don’t even remember if I played this or not, but Red Alert Cutscenes are a lost Art
Live action cutscenes in any games, really. They just don't make 'em like they did in the 90's, or in this case, the 2000's.
So, the Allied and the Empire generals can get laid with their asiistants, and the Soviet can't? Wut? -.-
You are The World Premier you can have any biatch
So you can have all three. Boom I like the soviet one the best
I gotta agree with Maester and Ogrim, it seemed like the kind of thing that was always implied given she was in your office and just waiting for you to finish addressing the Soviet People.
Orgrim Doomhammer
Plus your assistant ain't even Russian.
***** there was no sex in Soviet Russia
5:55 OOOH MAI
Murica
Guess their relationship was the inevitable.
Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Switch the screen Now
The day of their destiny has arrived.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
man the ending in the japanese campaign makes me cry all the time.
so do I hang out with two dudes and trim bonsai trees, or spend some quality time with a hot chick on a Hawaiian Beach?
decisions, decisions...
The Emperor ofcourse
Playing With the computer Comm Screen?
Well Takei is gay and historically some Samurai Daimyo were into boys. So the choice actually depends on your sexual preference. 😁
Bros before Shoujos
Crush the allies!!
14:30 - best reward for a job well done
"We forge ouwr spritz in the tradition of ouwr ancestors."
I like how in this campaign. Loyalty is really showcased and the understanding between father and son is displayed. The father willing to listen to his son to do what must be done is pretty inspiring.
Soviets and alies togetha?!!! Against Japan?!!! What the fucked up parallel universe is this?!!!
The one where "The Bomb" wasnt created to curb the Japanese....
Strange fact: in universe where "The Bomb" was created Soviets and Alies were stil fightin' together against Japan.
Mafon2 in this universe yes but ra3 pretty much show that Soviet destroyed one of the pioneers of such weapon.... Albert einstein :D
I know
***** I know
NO one notice that miss Suki Toyama is played by kelly hu ,the voice actor of Stacy Hirano from Phineas and Ferb, which also Japanese
And also plays Karai in the new TMNT series.
...who also voiced Khai Minh Dao from Battlefield Hardline.
Also in Sammy hung.
Don't forget Li Mei in Mortal Kombat 1
woah
'THE SAVAGES WILL KNEEL BEFORE US IN DEFEAT!' - The Emperor
all the lead actors in this are incredible!
The comedically chunky keyboard cable was the first foreshadowing that we're living in an alternate timeline
Impossibru!

"Our Honor"
*Attacks Civilian target during Christmas*
You should have told the same to the german commander in the battle of bulge
@@jerryu8166 Yup. And Soviet commanders during Continuation war.
Luckily there are also happy Christmas stories from world war 2.
Wounded American soliders were seeking place to stay during winter storm from German farmhouse. Helping enemy was concidered treason in Germany, and USA aswell.
But the Americans were allowed to stay. Later that night German soliders came to seek shelter from that same house.
Result: American and German soliders sat in same Christmas table singing Holy night and drinking Vine.
@@jarskil8862 Let's just say it was highly unlikely, it was supposed to be the 6th panzer grenadier division of the Waffen-SS, which has commited severe war crime, under the comand of Fieldmarshall Mödel, enjoyed the Christmas Eve with the Americans..... seemed quite unreal to me, I think the US occupation force made up this story to tear down the mental defense of the german people
@@jarskil8862 And also, It was a belgian farmhouse
Japanese aren't christians. So no problems lol.
Captain Kirk: Captain’s Log... Note to self... frequent time traveling shenanigans made Sulu Emperor of Humanity 🧐🧐... Should’ve listened to Spock
@ 1:02 Hot damn I love how Red Alert knows who its target audience is and aint afraid to prove it! (I'm talking about Star Trek fans).
One issue. You see that last scene? I've been there. That island is known as Chinaman's Hat, due to its shape. That's not on the North Shore of Oahu. That's on the East Side.
Also this giant three-bodied robot with katanas? It's just fake-ass CG, doesn't exist
And I'm pretty sure George Takei is not the Emperor of Japan. I might be wrong tho
@@deptusmechanikus7362 You never know tho.
10:33 Rich Sanchez's realization about the multiverse, in a nutshell: if there is a multiverse or multiple timelines, then there is no such thing as God, purpose, or destiny. And he's just a man in funny clothes.
Counterpoint: Maybe there is a god, or gods, but they just prefer being subtle?
Aaaa, this takes me back. Although I do remember a SHAMEFUR DISPRAY or two, this will still remain one of my fondest video game memories.
The Japanese cutscenes are the best in the game.
Watching these cutscenes make nostalgic
5:55 That bit is perfect. :D
"....bend to our will!"
Oh my.
I like how nostalgic that is
Commanda!!
I love how in this alternate world of C&C Red Alert 3, Pearl Harbor was attacked by the USA against Japan.
Got to love the Japanese cutscenes
7:54 - When everyone else goes Wololo, Mr Takei go Hololulu!
I never thought that Ron Yuan (Prince Tatsu) would voice Scorpion in Mortal Kombat 11.
He also voices Saejima on Yakuza: Like a Dragon
@@bimapradiga9724 and he also portrayed in Disney Mulan 2020
@@Koganai96 Very Indeed
5:53 here, this is what you're looking for
I like how the ending is a play on RA2, where both women were offering to be with you on vacation or night on the town.
I feel as if this should be the canon ending
mostly because of the Time machine tom foolery
it feels like just the right consequence for breaking this law of nature
I said it before and I'll say it again. Who else but the Japanese would have giant robots as artillery vehicles?
well not exactly artillery,but i get what you mean XD
They are masters of Anime so Gumdam!
Also they stole the Megazord Idea.
GDI?
It even ends on a beach episode
SULU, WHY?!!!!!
For Great Emperor and Rising Empire! Tenno Heiku Banzai!
TENŌHEIKA BANZAI!!!!!!!!!!
Kirk: "Suluuuuuuuuu!"
Yeah i totaly need that relax...
5:25 - 5:36 who knew that controlling that thing would be so much fun :D
good thing the emperor doesnt really see you, its hard to stay focused on some of the breifings
The Empire's campaign ive always love due to the fact That the emperor doesn't betrayal or attack you due to you gaining power/influence. instead he sees your worth and gives you more power. a nice change to the norm.
Great job on these videos bro! Which Faction is your favorite?
When Sakura Empire also has proper ground forces...
Azure Lane?
Amazing! Best faction in the series. Thumbs up if you guys admire the Empire of the Rising Sun as anime fans.
Harli Baron
High School DxD? Wow.
Nine_Tails137 ***** Zakir Stocks Estefania SuazoC Sanchez X3 ***** :)
As an anime hater, It is my favorite faction, becuse mangas were banned in Imperial Japan lol.
2:23 Miss Suki Toriyama
RIP Akira Toriyama 😭🫡
RIP 😢😢
5:54
if it was C&C, Kane would be like:
hey. hey! HEY! STOP IT! YOU WILL SHUT IT AND LISTEN TO ME, OR THE BLACK HAND WILL HOME RUN BOTH OF YOU!
The emperor’s son is also the voice of scorpion in mk 11
"We're taking you with us!"
"Tora! Tora! Tora!"
Nice little surprise in the end lol
I srill love how these guys have future tech and are shown to be advanced and advancing, yet 80% of thier missions are defend missions
14:30 best part
Damm suki toyama is hot af
Edit: HOLY CRAP THAT ENDING OF SUKI INVITING THE PLAYER TO THE BEACH
YES GIVE ME GIVE ME
Died of laughter when they were talking about Pearl Harbor.
Jesus I love the Empire of the Rising sun my favorite faction
I can imagine this going through the Imperial commander's head as the Emperor speaks:
"A shogunate? Do you really want to bring that back, your majesty? Last time the shoguns had a lot of power, they cucked the monarchy and made it their puppet. Oh, well, if I get to be the shogun, I won't turn down the chance to become your puppetmaster."
The most awesome representation of Japan
Anime army!
when it was released i was goddamn happy, but when i didnt heard them for years it made me sad....
The Emperor is George Takei The Actor of Sulu in Star Trek
