The Japanese also filmed "Anti-Japanese War Drama"? The image of the Chinese army inside is surprising

We have seen a lot of film and television works related to the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Some of them can reflect history objectively, while others have been ridiculed by netizens as "drama". In fact, not only in China, but Japan also filmed anti-Japanese themes. So, what is the difference between the Japanese War of Resistance film and the one we shot? As the "invaders" back then, in what perspective would they describe history?

The domestic anti-war drama

was on the 70th anniversary of the anti-fascist period, and Japan’s TBS TV station produced and broadcast a 2-episode series called "Red Cross ~ Women’s Enlistment Notice~", which was run by a famous Japanese actress Matsushima Nanako starred. The background of the

story is set on the Chinese battlefield during the Anti-Japanese War. The protagonist is not a Japanese soldier fighting on the front line, but a Japanese female nurse behind the war. Through the perspective of these weak women, it tells the countless crimes committed by the Japanese army against the Chinese people at that time. What surprised us was that the "Three Views" of the play were fairly positive, and did not exaggerate Japanese militarism, let alone deliberately discredit Chinese soldiers. It just put the Japanese war of aggression against China on the screen as much as possible, describing the many atrocities committed by the Japanese Kwantung Army during the war, and a large number of innocent people were persecuted due to the war.

All in all, although the ratings of the show are not high, it is indeed an anti-war work filmed by the Japanese. Compared with the "tear devils" and "grenade hidden in the crotch" in the domestic anti-war drama, it is obviously much smarter.

From this we can also see that not all Japanese people pretend to be ignorant of what happened more than 70 years ago.

However, I have to admit that most of the Japanese authorities have maintained an attitude of disregard and denial of the atrocities in World War II. This is unacceptable to all victimized countries.

In contrast, Germany, which was also a fascist aggressor back then, had its chancellor kneel in public in order to be forgiven and moved the world. Moreover, after the defeat, Germany did not reconcile its debts and paid high compensations to many countries. It was the act of daring to face history and admitting mistakes that allowed Germany to get rid of the notoriety of World War II early, to be forgiven by neighboring countries, to integrate into the European environment, and to have peace at home and abroad. In this regard, Germany can serve as a model for Japan. And to this day, more than 70 years have passed since the end of World War II, and many of the victimized countries did not get an apology from Japan!
