[Question] Japan's Atomic Accidents

[m-dono.livejournal.com]

Since China's scar behind his back stands for the Rape of Nanking, I was wondering if Japan had anything of the sort.

A lot of us know that there were two atomic bombs that hit Japan on August 6 and 9 of 1945 ordered by President Harry Truman, these two being named "Little Boy" and "Fat Man" respectively. I ask if Japan-tan has any sort of physical, emotional, mental, etc. representation of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? 

Thank you all for your cooperation!

I'm thinking that's got more to do with the post-WWII behavior of Japan, and I've never seen any literature with the idea that Japan was afraid of more bombs.

And anyway, at the first meeting, wasn't it before WWI?

Japan agrees with America, since America basically bent over backwards to "atone" for the mess that they made in Japan, i.e. they wanted a strong democratic ally in Asia to vs. China and the rest of the Communists. Also: until recently (and I think even now) America still has troops stationed in Japan, which every so often causes a hindrance (parents getting pissed because the Americans are hitting on their daughters like horny weasels in the heat and other problems and so on). Basically, Japan does owe a lot economically to the US due to the US helping its infrastructure out to have an economy that mirrors (but is not exactly) like America's.

as an IMO, I think Japan sees Hiroshima more like a loss of face than willing to put blame on America. It doesn't matter how brutally the enemy kills one, but it is a serious blow to pride. Hence all the movies (including this creepy one with vague submarine phallic imagery that my friend had to watch). But my interpretation may be way off the mark.

I was also under the impression that this is post-WWII, especially since the nations seem to be functioning well together (I'm assuming it's a UN nations meeting?) and the subject they are discussing, environmentalism, really isn't something people worried about back then.

Hope this helps :D sorry about the ranting. :D

There are still army bases.
They cause problems when American soldiers or Americans do crime (rape, kill, steal, etc.) and run into the bases, because by American law, the Japanese police force can't go in there. :S

I have always believed that Japan agreed with America on that because the only naiton that loves giant robots more than America is Japan.
