Life of a Kamikaze

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ค. 2024
- It's April 12th, 1945, and Nine Mitsubishi G4M Betty bombers and their escort of A6M Zero fighters soar over the East China Sea. In the leading bomber, Lieutenant Saburo Dohi puts on his oxygen mask and lies back on his makeshift cot, breathing deeply. His mind is focused on one thing: the new secret weapon held in the bowels of the Betty, a weapon the Japanese hope will change the course of the war. The Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka was the chariot of the Thunder Gods. Volunteer pilots who would give everything for Japan. We try to lift the veil on the life of these young pilots. To try and understand their training and their friendships and to explore why they would strive to make the ultimate sacrifice. To find out more on the Thunder Gods check out the great book by Dan King, 'Blossoms From the Sky' which was one of the sources we used for this video. The Ohka was used successfully by Saburo Dohi when he hit the destroyer Mannert L. Abele causing it to split in half and subsequently sink.

We thought long and hard doing this one. No doubt the Okha design is very cool but we in no way support the actions of the Japanese pilots. We wanted to do a video that showed their story from their view and reading 'Blossoms From the Sky' by Dan King inspired us to make this. Tell us if you think we got it right or wrong !
Great vid !

Straight on the mark
I am Japanese. I am impressed that someone from abroad has produced such a faithful and respectful work. Hopefully there will never be another war in the Pacific.
I wish peace for both of our sides, and all countries in the world, greetings from America
I like your videos
This is the way history used to be taught. You put yourself into the shoes of even your adversaries to better understand the times.
Thats why its our duty to remember ALL the fallen.
As always its the normal guy who fights and lays down his life in war.
My superior always said: In Death everybody is equal and only God may judge.
Agreed
We should be friends not enemies
Besides, We both fought for our countries And thats what counts for me
Interesting fact:
When Tadanao Miki, the designer of the Ohka, was ordered by his superiors to design the Ohka, he strongly objected, saying, ``It would be an affront to technology to create an airplane in which the pilot would definitely die.'' However, his superiors and subordinates could not refuse this request. In his diary after the war, he wrote, ``My heart hurts every time I think about it.'' After the war, Tadanao Miki joined Japan National Railways, saying, ``I want to use technology for peace this time,'' and in 1964, he designed the world's first high-speed railway, the Shinkansen 0 series. Thorough weight reduction and a shape with low air resistance were exactly the techniques cultivated in Ohka's design. Tadanao Miki designed many other railway cars and passed away in 2005 at the age of 95.
I just read on another video about the Oka that the designer was somebody else, and he was ashamed changed his name after the war and ended up dying of cancer.
The relevant part of the comment is as follow,
“…even as a Japanese person, I am impressed. If there's one thing I'd like to tell you, it's that Shoichi Ota, who invented Ouka, boarded an airplane without permission and took off on the day Japan was defeated in the war. Everyone thought that he committed suicide, taking responsibility for losing the war after developing Ouka, but many pilots died in battle, but he was still alive. According to Japanese historians, the plane he was on crash-landed in waters far from land, and he was rescued by a fishing boat. Having failed in his suicide attempt, he abandoned the name
"Shoichi Ota" and also abandoned his wife and child, whom he had married during the war.
Therefore, many people thought that Shoichi Ota was dead. After the war, he gave himself a false name, changed his job many times, and no ID was created, so he couldn't go to the hospital even if he got sick, and in the end, he suffered from cancer and died.”
@@Corey_Brandt Did he enjoy oppenheimer lol
@@notgadot？
@@Corey_Brandt if it helps, I put a transcript of the video and Shigaraki's text through ChatGPT and it checks out, howere what you posted doesn't, and with no historical evidence.
Thank you for this comment. Quite heartbreaking, but very interesting and fascinating.
Reminds me somewhat of the mind behind the German rockets during ww2. Paraphrasing here, but he said something along the lines of “the rocket performed perfectly snd exactly as intended, unfortunately, it happened to land on the wrong planet.”
Brilliant minds having their talents forced into building weapons of war.
As an American, who had multiple family memebers fight in the war, a few in the Pacific, this gave me a new respect for the Japanese soldiers they fought against. We don't get a whole lot of media portraying them as honorable, respectable, and selfless. Great video. May we never have to fight another war like that ever again. We need to find a way to coexist on this planet. I hope we find life out in the galaxy somewhere soon. I think that will be the thing that will finally unite us as a species.
I am just worried that our racism will transfer to an alien race.
dig deeper and u will find
What about the countless atrocities that Japan committed , and has gone out of their way to deny ever happened?
@@graceneilitz7661 they deny everything. Their education system avoids this subject at all costs.
@@jackchurchill3777 at least that could be more justificable, a bacteria is more related to us than an alien, so.....
I am Japanese. I really respect for everyone who fights WW2.
I never forget and keep studying about this important history.
I am American, and I feel the same way. There were so many brave heros on all sides. Learning about WW2 gives me a sense of pride, sorrow, and strangely enough, a deep love for mankind and connection between all people on this earth from every nation.
Yep. The Japanese, Germans and Italians almost broke the planet, and caused and perpetuated a war that killed 75 million people, 40 million of which were innocents. We have camped out in those three countries ever since.... and voila! No more world wars. I find the Japanese to be among the most polite people on the planet. I'm glad that we are allies.
As a Japanese person, from a samurai family at that, I ans my family hate the kamikaze attack as a concept, but we still acknowledge that the pilots who flew them were all patriotic, family caring and despite the horrors the japanese inflicted during the war, thise pilots were innocent Spirits.
Thank you for making this video. It means a lot.
Patriotic for a Nationalist Genocidal State
Those pilots weren't any better than other soldiers except they strapped themselves into specialty built suicide cans
@@hoovyzepoot You missed the entire point there but whatever.
@@FRIEND_711 Having "innocent" and Japanese soldiers be anywhere in the same sentence seems like it's spitting in the face of history
@@hoovyzepoot And that is the point you are missing.
Most of these pilots were young people who were drafted around 43,44 and 45. in fact most kamikaze pilots were university students, if memory calls correctly, that's what I mean by innocent. These pilots were not barbaric war criminals, hell you could even say most of the Japanese pilots weren't either, they were just people and specifically the kamikaze's were innocent people, they didn't start the war, fought the war with false patriotic superiority complex in mind, they were innocent people who just wanted to protect their home and family.
I am Japanese. I have worked in the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, a postwar Japanese defense organization. But I cannot understand Saburo's feelings. Even though we are both Japanese, I cannot understand his feelings. I am amazed at Saburo's mental strength. It brought tears to my eyes. Saburo's death was a shock, but the deaths of the crew of the destroyer who died were just as tragic as Saburo's death. We must not let this history repeat itself.
I really do admire his mental strength, but I do wish things like this will never happen again
The graphic, the storytelling, the voice-over, the music & sound effects....everything is perfect! Bravo for this piece of art on TH-cam!
I despise war. There’s no other way to say it.
And yet, I’m still transfixed by the stories of the men that participated in them.
This story hit me especially hard. I know that every Japanese soldier was just another human, but a part of me still held such contempt for these pilots. You’ve washed that part of me away.
Look war is a necessary evil.
A case can very well be made for defensive wars.
But when are offensive wars justified?
I don’t think they ever are.
@@lanej5828Offensive wars sometimes are justified

私も戦争は嫌いです。ですが特攻隊の人達は、愛する人々、祖国の為に儚くも美しく英霊になったという事を知っていてほしいです。自分達の命を軽く見ていた訳ではなく、自分達の命で護るべきものがあるから飛んだのだと。
My late grandfathers ship, USS Stanley DD478 was among the ships damaged by an Ohka (Baka) Bomb. Though I guess you could say his ship was lucky in that it didn't explode and merely punched clean through. A second Ohka was a near miss.
In spite of the fact that so many ships were damaged, thank GOD those Ohkas weren't very successful and only sank one US NAVY vessel.
Baka bombs 🗿
Sounds like the Ohka program was sort of a bust with a low return on investment.
@@georgiabigfoot They were vulnerable riding in the belly of the twin engine bombers. US Navy fighters chewed up the bombers carrying them before they got into range to deploy against our fleet most of the time. There is gun camera footage of Japanese twin engine bombers being shot up and you can see the stubby wings sticking out from the belly of the bomb bay.
@@1977Yakko seems like Japanese engineers would have spent their time and energy on something more fortuitous like an atomic bomb
Extraordinary video! You treat such a difficult subject with respect and honor to the men who were doing their duty as they understood it. Thank you!
戦争のない世の中になりますようお祈りいたします。
There was a time like that, before humans took over the planet.
The voice acting, the Lighting, the Atmosphere, The Particles, The Camera panning everything about this one is outstanding
the only thing that could make it better is using war thunder for the flights and models
Imperial Japanese Air Foce: "Good news! We've developed a guided missile!"
Japanese Pilot: "oh cool! What guidance system does it use?"
Imperial Japanese Air Force: "You are the guidance system"

Well we took that idea and said ADD A COCKPIT!
In reality, the Japanese pilot would have said: 😃
@@seantaggart7382 I mean tbf the Germans also rammed planes into Allied Bombers as well.
@@gregorylouis617 That is true, only their intent was to do so without killing the pilot. There was even a whole Dogfights episode on that
@@seantaggart7382the germans do that also! Calls Fi 103 Reichenberg the manned V1.
The animations keep getting better and better. I remember watching a bunch of your videos like 2 years ago and seeing how far the animations came. Now I get this recommended and I’m honestly dumbfounded how great the animations have gotten. Easily one of the most engaging history channels on TH-cam.

You really nailed this video.
When I was around 11-14 years old, I saw Kamikaze pilots as fanatical lunatics.
Today I am 23 and I understand exactly what they gave their lives for.
The answer to this question is the "Last first sunrise" part.
Japan is a beautiful country and I like it even though I haven't been there.
Their culture and country is amazing.
I sympathize with them also for the reason that my great-grandfather fought in the First World War and at the end of the Second World War took part in the battles on the Prague barricades.
Unfortunately for him, he was in a part of Prague called Pankrác.
There were some pretty tough fights.
The Germans killed many resistance fighters there.
My great grandfather was seriously injured but survived.
But he suffered from PTSD until his death, painting pictures helped him to forget...
Honor the memory of all brave men and women.
oh my ur czech? :O Wow ahooj :D
Japanese citizen here. I have had the pleasure of being to Prague and your beautiful country. The Czech people continue to punch above their weight. A beautiful city with delicious food. Glory to the heroes of your resistance. The world never gave you guys a chance when they gave the sudetenland away. With respect and hopes to visit your great nation again soon 🇯🇵♥️🇨🇿.

I love how this channel has no bias towards any nation. Only reporting on extreme acts of heroism, bravery, and final resolution within oneself to act in the heat of battle.
We're taught in the Infantry to always respect the enemy. He's doing exactly what we're doing, serving our nations with utmost urgency to the cause.
自ら神風特別攻撃隊に志願したものの終戦で任務遂行出来ず生き残ってしまったと遠くを見つめて話をされる元特攻兵を思い出しました。当時若かった私は、ただ受け止める事がやっとでしたが、今となっては貴重な話をもっと聞いておけば良かったと後悔しています。
そういう方達って特攻崩れって言われて迫害されとるからね。
This is very well made. Even though they are considered an “enemy” at the time it is respectful and now I kind of feel sorry for the kamikaze pilots while still not fully supporting them. Great job.
Even though I don’t support the Japanese actions during ww2 but this actually made me cry
Most people would never. But they're still human.
@@mrpineapple3942 1000% true

you’re vids are absolutely amazing and improved so much, if it wasn’t for you, i would have never known these things happened in these historical times, KEEP GOING!!❤
yes
Thunder God's? Lol
Yarnhub, you did a fantastic job on capturing the glorious Japanese view of "the divine wind" or kamikaze. The kamikaze program started in 1944, unbeknownst to most the Japanese pilots of the day didn't want to kill themselves untill 1944 when it was believed desperate time call for desperate measures. My Dad was a U.S. Marine in WWII, serving as a 60 mm mortarman in the second Marine division. He stayed in the corps after the war and fought in north Korea as a 81mm mortarman at the chosen reservoir.
I've study WWII through out my life. I'm 65 now and still learn new things about the war. Your channel is doing a great job of explaining the war in great detail and accuracy. I really enjoy watching your shows. Thank you
These men were true warriors. Accepting a death sentence to help their country and countrymen. It's astounding. Even though they were our enemy, you cannot disrespect or downplay the commitment and resolve of these pilots. I will forever remain amazed by kamakazi pilots, and these are a whole new level beyond that.
They were dumb as hell imo lmao
you realise they did experminents and tortured little kids?
Tbh it doesn’t really help much. It’s not effective in the long run. You’re just losing soldiers
@@3edr yea the Japanese government, not the pilots. They were forced into this and it takes insane courage to train for this and go through with it, knowing it's your final mission
not just the governmant
The quality and respectfulness of your videos are unmatched by any other channels i have watched, keep doing what you do best.
This is one of the best videos you've done so far. I would put this up right next to "Letters From Iwo Jima" as being one of the best portrayals of WW2 from the Japanese point of view. Well done good sir!
That's a bit of an exaggeration. It's a good video but it's know where near the production value of letters from iwo jima
Have a look at the Studio Ghibli animation called 'Grave of the fireflies'.
This channel is on another level, holy crap I love the story telling and the visuals, just beautifully done.
Subscribed for the reference to the Falling Lotus at 14:32. Great work and an interesting way to respectfully describe Kamikaze pilots!
I love all of you and your teams content! It really is impressive we can get this quality for free on youtube! Yall have came so far since I started watching your content years ago, the production is amazing and the stories you tell are humbling and worded so well! Keep up the good work and I will continue recommending this channel as long as I live 😊
Thank you so much for your support !
I haven't watched this channel in a year or three but I can surely say their video quality has surely improved! I'm also glad to see their still going :)
Honestly this is one of the greatest videos ever made. The animation and storytelling is simply on point 👌
4:34
Can we just appreciate how much of a beautiful and yet simple animation that is?
I am amazed at the beautiful way that this topic was handled. Not glorifying or demeaning the actions of these pilots. Very well done.
こんなにたくさんの海外の人が特攻隊に同情的な事に驚いた。
私の祖父は海軍航空隊でフィリピンで特別自爆隊の護衛を勤め松山で終戦を迎えました

Ficaria mais surpreso se soubesse que infelizmente esses e tantos outros, se condenaram a si mesmos à perdição eterna(ao inferno) quando assim tiraram suas próprias vidas.
Eu particularmente tenho pena deles e dos outros milhões que morreram nessas duas grandes guerras. Que são uma desgraça pra humanidade. Então amados, busquem à Deus, ao Senhor Jesus Cristo enquanto Ele pode ser achado. Pois Sua vinda está próxima. Entenda que Deus não tem prazer na morte do ímpio, do perdido pecador. Mas Ele deseja que esse se arrependa, se converta de seus maus caminhos, que esse creia no Evangelho e venha até o Senhor Jesus Cristo, Seu Filho pela Fé e se entregue Àquele que um dia se entregou pra morrer em nosso lugar numa Cruz, levando sobre si os nossos pecados, e que Ressuscitou ao terceiro Dia. O Senhor Jesus Cristo pode Perdoar e Salvar todo e qualquer um, que com Fé e em arrependimento se achega à Ele, e lhe dar um Novo Recomeço na Presença de Deus.

Absolutely amazing video! I always love your work, you are fantastic at telling the truth of different combatants’ experiences, without ever becoming jingoistic. There is a great love of history without bias in your work, and I appreciate that. I also teared up watching this beautiful exploration of the Thundergods’ mentality.
Being unbiased isn't a good thing.
Jingoism is good.
Value-neutrality is a myth.
This is amazing! No matter what side you supported, all sides have a story. Thank you for telling the other side's story so eloquently.
IF KAMIKAZE HAVE GLIDER THEY HAVE A CHANCE STOPING ALL THE ALLY ATTACK WITHOUT KNOWING.
OHKA WILL BE USED FOR LONG RANGE AND NO KAMIKAZE LIFE WOULD SPARE. BUT EVERYONE WANT TO STOP A WAR.
I am STUNNED by the quality of your animations.
The faces, the moments it cuts away from realism, the water, it’s amazing. I cannot believe you are the same yarnhub I started watching only a year ago.

May they rest in peace, I pray.

Por mucho este es uno de los mejores relatos que tiene este canal... Barbaro, increible, magnanimo, nose como describir como me senti cuando termino todo..! demasiadas Gracias!
Excellent feature. History however painful is a story we must hear and hopefully leadership learns from. From reading Ian Toll's Twilight of the Gods there is a number of Kamikaze that didn't want to go through their mission (writings left behind). Still it shows how desperate the Japanese situation had become not to be forgotten how much of this would had been applied had Olympic and Cornet gone forward.
That was an amazing video to watch, from a different yet respectful perspective. Thank you.

Excellent and thoughtfully assembled video. A story well-told - and well done for the very subtle visual about subscribing as Saburo Dohi was bringing the the "glider" around ahead of landing . . . no unnecessary break in the story or any of the usual, overdone reminders. Good job. Bell rung.
This is definetely one of the best videos you guys have made. The chapters with different timelines were amazing. Keep up your amazing work!
This episode was absolutely breathtaking. Thank you for honoring these stories.
The quality of storytelling is second to none ‼️
Amazing production quality and animation ant to mention the story aspect you earned a follower
This is a sensitive topic to discuss in a video. However, it was done in a very elegant manner. Showing great care in it portraying of the people involved on both sides. THIS IS ONE OF YOUR BEST THUS FAR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHARING OF THIS STORY IN A MEANINGFUL AND RESPECTFUL MANNER.
I swear , this is account so underrated . Ever since ive found passion in ww2 Ive been missing out on this accoutn so good quality like I love this .

Protected? You should educate yourself in that matter. Japan was trying to conquer the world, much like their allies, the germans.
@@clagoeiro no shit buddy I know my history
I am Japanese. Please read the wills of the kamikaze pilots. Written in beautiful and refined Japanese, they contain words of gratitude to their mothers, words of love encouraging their fiancées to forget about them and move on to the future, paintings they wanted to see, and what they really wanted to learn. Today's Japan is built on the sacrifice of these young lives.
On May 3, 1945, the U.S.S. Aaron Ward DM34, a destroyer on picket duty north of Okinawa engaged with numerous kamikazes. The ship suffered six strikes from aircraft variously described as Vals and Zeroes. Among the strikes were two partial hits from debris of aircraft struck by anti-aircraft fire, two glancing blows one of which took off part of the forward stack, and two direct. The ship was seriously damaged but did not sink. My father was a Chief Machinest Mate aboard her and survived uninjured while over 30 crewmates didn't.

It still makes me think whenever I consider how young many of these pilots were, and how they were taught just enough to fly a rocket in just one very final mission.
We always remember that the Kamikaze pilot’s "honor" and "sorrow " and that they protected "love for motherland” and “love for their family" ,and for the bright future of we Japanese and the people worldwide, I pray for peace all over the world...😢😊👍

This channel is a treasure.
My greatuncle witnessed a kamikaze in yugoslavia during ww2, Some unknown heroic yugoslav pilot was put out of action but before crashing decided to ram it into a convoy of trucks carrying soilders and ammunition which halted the german advance for 5 days
Many foreigners who cannot read kanji get the name wrong, but the official name is "Shinpu." The name "Kamikaze" was misinformed by foreigners. Please be careful not to read it incorrectly, as it is rude to Japanese people.
This video is even better than all other previous videos combine. Exceptional!
Beautiful video, images that are a work of art and a moving story, great tribute to the kamikaze pilots who gave their lives for their country. Thank you for uploading your videos with the possibility of seeing the translation in Spanish. A big greeting from Argentina.

I've been watching this channel for over a year now and the editing and visuals have gotten so extremely good
Congratulations on 800,000 subs! This was a great video, and it helps us to realize that the enemies can make the glorious ultimate sacrifice, even if it's for the wrong cause.
If the US had 800,000 subs, WWII would've lasted five days! 😊😅😂
Excellent vid , I never knew about the Ohka until I read about it in the old World at War books in 1972 , since then been Facinated by it an Anything about it ..
When I was a kid, I had a hard time understanding why someone would willingly fly their plane into the U.S. Navy. Being born an American, it should go without saying that I was a bit prejudice. Now, I can’t help, but respect the brave man, who gave their lives trying to protect their country.
Amazing job. Efforts have been made on the script, images and graphics. I started followed you 6 months ago and your evolution is positively surprising ! Continue your incredible stories, i'm gonna buy a Ohka Cap to support your efforts and to wear it !!
The animation is cutting edge, and the translations are all accurate. Definentely worth watching.
My father was on the USS Chandler, which was on picket duty during the melee north of Okinawa. Glad he didn't have to deal with any of these.
These videos are so well made - well done!
It's like the animation has gone into the future by 4 months or something. Love the videos, man. Also, I would LOVE to see more videos in this format. I feel it would bring much more people to the channel.
I think it's great people like yourself are making videos/songs on historical moments from all sides. Very well done.
Great video and great animation, thank you for sharing the knowledge and insight.
Very interesting video! outstanding, when i sat in the Okha at RAF Cosford uk i tried to get into the pilots mindset but no chance! i'am not that brave!..it had a red handle on the right hand side which armed the warhead, great video!

Artistic, gripping, and respectful all wrapped around masterful storytelling. This did not feel like almost 17 minutes. Bravo, once again!
Between this and the "85 Planes vs 2 Warships" video, any plans to produce a full length movie?
it was 17 minutes?! bro I didn't notice that much time had passed until now that I read your comment lol
i have been watching since before 20k subs and i took a break from this for a bit but i an revisiting and you are still making amazing videos for real sotrys to make learning actually fun and interesting
I Remember that from Il-2 Sturmoviks Pacific Fighters Combat Flight Simulator. Cool Video !
You’ve improved massively, I really enjoyed this. I’m definitely pedantic as an aeronautical concept artist and designer but I look forward to further refinement of the airfoils, control surface deflections and physics as you grow into a preeminent 3D recreation channel. BTW you’ve not been in my feed for months.
This is amazingly well produced with a clearly a lot of respect and work put into making this video! I'd love to see more of this for incoming videos. Is there anything where you post more stuff like this?
Also I don't really go along with what Japan did during world war 2 but you've shown this in a way that makes it less offencive than how the rest of the world sees it.
Not a single comment on the cherry blossoms in the explosion of the ship? Very moving part of the video for me, the dichotomy of destruction, duty, devotion, death
Incredible story telling. As an American, I don’t want to feel for people who killed hundreds of our young sailors but I understand the dedication and sacrifice.
Also, I kind of have mixed feelings about this video glorifying their deaths then and selling merchandise of this suicide weapon especially knowing that the “volunteers” for these attacks were not always as willing as this man. But damn was this video a work of art.
Felt like maybe it should be made for a Japanese war museum or some not for TH-cam.
