...Wow.

Just... wow. Holy fucking shit... wow.

Um, I'm sorry, but JUST from Unit 731 existing... You don't get to compare what the Imperial Japanese did compared to European colonization.

Yes, European colonization was oppressive. But... this isn't even the same ballpark. Or the same fucking sport as a matter of fact. That isn't even up for discussion.
First I said in some areas, as in not everything they did grouped together, and closer, as in comparison to what I was talking about earlier in the post, namely what they did in Taiwan. It was a single line about how in that era, in some areas, they weren't acting quite the same as they did prior, in Taiwan. I was acknowledging historical counterpoints to my oblique unimportant comment, that I will freely admit was in poor taste, about Japan's historic propensities in relation to colonization.

Second, and I will reiterate again that I was not trying to compare them on the whole or a wide scale as you seemed to take it. However you're saying I can't compare the war crimes of the slave trade, a significant aspect of European colonization, to war crimes of inhuman experimentation done by Japan in ww2? Neither thing should have ever been done, and they are both absolutely horrific. Both had hundreds of thousands of people dying in horrific conditions they should have never been subjected to. Sure they aren't the same sport, but in this they are at least both sports, both fueled by the absolute indifference to human life and dignity. Whether it was for the sake of experiments, entertainment, or profit, or any reason, ripping people away from their families and lives, torturing them, and infecting them with illnesses(intentionally or due to indifference that the conditions you put them in will cause) is still similarly horrific. And I will not accept that they can not be compared as being similar in some way. If you want to say they can't, then I will accept that there will be no discussion.

...Yeah, still not applicable and comparable. The Imperial Japanese were far worse.

Considering that there were European countries that had colonies that didn't practice slavery, import slaves there and even countries that did have slavery often didn't import them through their colonies?

...No.

Germany, for example, had multiple colonies in Africa. They did not practice de facto slavery. Same goes for Belgium and the Congo. Others, too, I just don't care to further disprove your assertions which don't pan out factually.

You're conflating two different issues as one entire one. And often when it's not even factually correct. You don't need to attempt to make colonization seem worse by insinuating every country that did it was practicing slavery when they weren't. That's revisionist history. Don't do that.

It wasn't a comparison of all things they did though. You're taking an example and forcing it into what I said. My statement was specifically not all encompassing of what japan did in ww2.

You grouped something into what I said when I did not put it there, and took my statement as being all encompassing when it was explicitly not. Then you compared it to another subject without any qualifier on specificity, and are denying the use of an example from therein.

The slave trade was something that happened within the larger context of European colonization. I could, and should, have phrased it in way that didn't group them together as strongly, as I only intended it as an example of something that happened within the larger subject. But you were taking them as comparisons of the entirety of the two subject, the actions of imperial Japan during ww2 and the lead up to it, and European colonization, when I was specifically not comparing them in their entirety.

Seems it’s only changed in the forums. Still JP title on the reader and on the ch hub. Weird.
It had a English title when I originally made that post. It was changed back shortly after I made the post.
7 years with the romanized Japanese title, and someone feels the need to change the title for no good reason. Again, there is no official English release, hence no official English title.
And even if there was an official English release starting today, IMO the romanized Japanese title should remain after being there for so many years.

Hmm. This chapter is weird. Ships in CWIS range, (having closed to CWIS range for some reason. But not using it.) f-16s or whatever dive bombing, and whatever that weird strafing was- also 20mm cannon-fire not utterly destroying that railcar

Maegeek fantazy metal and ammo efficiency or something. You wouldn't just shred the little wooden boats with bullets, is like using a MAC-10 to fill holes on cheese, if you have a gun that can fully destroy the vessel then why not use it? Makes it easier to identify the bodies in the water.

Anyways thanks for the meal!!

It's hilarious how everyone's knowledge of japanese history comes entirely from American-israeli propaganda.
Also they somehow expect a jap manga to not wank itself while consuming every western capeshit wanking America or Israel off at every opportunity. Why would you not write about your own country being good? Bunch of self hating cucks around here

Something else brought up on another forum, is how the writer of the LN ignores the fact of foreign entities in Japan, primarily US military forces stationed in Japan with all their military equipment.
Once the Japanese have ascertained that they're the only nation to have been transported to this world, theoretically there's not much stopping them from just taking over those forces. Even if it came to push the JSDF should come out on top, albeit probably with not insignificant losses.
