Nihonkoku Shoukan - Vol. 9 Ch. 42 - The Imperial Army Military Base

[definitionofinsanity]

I . . . really dont think they should be doing that tho, im pretty sure indiscriminate bombing is a war crime.
Well, probably not like japan cares too much about adding another one of those to their repertoire anyways, but still.

According to the previous chapters they said that the bombing will only be limited to military bases. Which, if true, would not be a war crime.

No, author admitted that the USFJ and 7th Fleet came with Japan. The author just didn't want them in the story and wanted a Japanese-only focus and says that they stay permanently in Japan, which... makes no sense.

He said they help with technical issues and planning and that's basically it.

Lol wtf, might as well just have them not come.

Oh i know what they tryna do... Bringing democracy thats what

LIBER-TEA TIME!!!!

Yeah... I can get a Japanese author wanting to write a Japanese-centered story... but when you're taking 50,000+ Americans stationed in your country and including a fleet of ships, with an actual honest-to-god nuclear supercarrier that would help immensely in your logistics and tactical capabilities, not to mention tanker aircraft and support vessels and that a ton of the people there have experience in them... Making them twiddle their thumbs is kind of puzzling.

Especially since, in real life, the Americans would gladly help and want to help the Japanese and would likely want their own little plot of land in this new world to set up an American enclave government.

Plus, there's a ton of Marines involved in this. And if they learn that they can fight demons and shit like they did earlier in the manga, you'd have to physically restrain them from joining the fight.

LIBER-TEA TIME!!!!

I swear to god if they drop a nuke im gonna be livid

 

[Ardantop132]

You've awakened a sleeping Giant

be glad that these Planes aren't carrying any sort of bombs or nukes.

No they're actually carrying bombs.

Specifically for that Imperial Army Military Base. Nothing say kill more than Overkill.

 

[Ardantop132]

Sorry but there's no bombing of civilians that will happen in the next coming chapters. Tho if someone died in the factories of Duro, well, those are collateral damages

And even then, someone died in Duro because they're trying to retaliate with a old Mirishial AA gun from secret trade and got Vulcan'd by F-15J for throwing one bomber off the mission.

That BP-3C wasn't downed by the Ixion AA, but it was ordered RTB, and an F-2 dropped a Mk.82 onto the Parpaldian AA position

First of all... what in the holy fuck is with CRATERS IN WOOD SURFACES?! Not only that, but it has CRATERS right next to blown apart wood. Why... why did the mangaka do that?

Secondly, I was curious as to find the range to their country from Japan and thankfully the F-2s are a good example of that. With their exact loadout and no bags (I had to jettison the tanks in CMANO) you're looking at a ~374nm range. Meaning full range. So you'd have to have the target at 187nm at the absolute maximum.

Now, yes, Japan DOES have aerial tankers... but not very fucking many. And it wouldn't make sense to not have externals on the aircraft in that case.

That would make for the alternate theory being these F-2s took from really, really, REALLY close to the target country. Which... I doubt is the case.

And, oh, this is the absolute best-case scenario. You'd probably take more than 90 seconds to take off and get up to 12,000. And you'd probably use a shitload more fuel than what this represents, so much less than 187nm combat radius.

Japanese readers and translators of the webnovel and light novel all acknowledge that Nihonkoku Shoukan is 100% fantasy, using a completely fictional country that has the name of Japan, with their fantasy magic weapons coincidentally having the same name as real-world weapons. Literally nothing about Nihonkoku's fantasy Japan coincides with anything in reality. Not their people, not their weapons, not their specs, not the governmental structure, not the society. Many Japanese readers even stated that the population of this fantasy country weren't even human, nor were they breathing an oxygen-nitrogen mix.

These Japanese readers are approaching it from the same angle as I am and do things like comparing the F-15J in the word to the F-15J in real life on the (un?)official wiki.
Here's even one of the official "our-world" sources that they used for a page regarding the F-15J in the novel:

Also, the author himself is using real-life equipment and circumstances to adapt into his novel:

The author says that he's using real-world inspiration, but the readers largely agree that he's hilariously bad at it.

I mean, from

Japanese imperialist military otaku isekai strikes again. Whats with her on the second to last page lol

her perspective as far as we know they dont really have the same established rules of war that we do now. Japan has just taken out all their air defences in the capital in one strike and then show up with a giant fleet of their own. As far as she is aware, Japan may as well raze the city to the ground. There also likely isn't well established rules in regards to prisoners of war in this world so as far as she knows, if Japan wins they'll lock her in a dungeon and torture, rape her and/or degrade her in some other manner. That moment is pretty much her internal realization that her life is practically over.

Love the story but yeesh... the art is hideous. Like something from the 80s or early 90s.

They need to stop with the shiny and glitter effect. We know those are OP toys in this world.

 

[Aston3003]

are we gonna see some WW2 japan Human "Experiments". Like what they did and tried to hide the fact they played and tortured the lives of people that was captured by them during the war.

That sensor officer jumped the gun by ignoring chain of command and acting all skibidi.
