Lengthy commentary on why Sakuna and people reacted the way they did to Mirute's statement🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
What Mirute is doing is the same as the recent incident in Japan in the past month where British Thomas Lockly and French game company UBI have attempted to alter Japanese history, the origins of famous Japanese historical figures and much of Japanese culture, causing a huge uproar in Japan, an act that is incomprehensible to Japanese people and which they are right to reject strongly.
The Japanese people are not understanding and it is natural that they would strongly reject it, because when they approach you with a smile and ask if you want to have a friendly relationship with them, they want to demote a being that the local people have called God and have valued and respected since ancient times to a servant or a messenger and turn him into someone who is subject to a foreign God.
Mirute has beautified and justified herself as if she were a purist with a passion by repeatedly saying that she got on a boat to see the wider world and that she has had a long voyage, but what she and her fellow countrymen back home are trying to do around the world is forced conversion, a terribly selfish and cruel thing to do.
It is an act that forces people to abandon what they have protected and loved since ancient times.
Moreover, this is also what the missionaries from abroad actually did in the past in Japan, going around with a notepad in their hands and asking people all sorts of things.
To the locals, this looks like the behaviour of spies.
It is only natural that their sense of caution and fear would be heightened.
It is strange that Mirute looks like a victim and saddened.
In fact, missionaries who did the same thing in the past in Japan to find out and gather information about the geography and military situation in Japan, established a number of large military bases in various parts of Japan in cooperation with European merchants.
They set fire to ancient Japanese shrines and temples, ordered 60,000 believers to thoroughly destroy everything, built Christian seminaries in the burnt ruins created at 87 locations, and used the debris from the shrines and temple buildings in the seminary kitchen stoves instead of firewood.
Statues and bronze statues, which the Japanese had valued since ancient times, were destroyed in large numbers, and all metalwork used to decorate these statues was stripped and sent to Europe.
They were then re-used as decorations to adorn European royal palaces and churches.
Also, in cooperation with merchants from Europe, 50,000 Japanese were taken to Europe in large numbers on European merchant ships as slaves.
The missionaries proudly wrote letters to their superiors in Europe about all these activities.
The missionaries also boasted in these letters that they were unifying the content of textbooks and the educational policy of seminaries so that the Japanese would abandon Japanese and spread Spanish and Portuguese to all regions of Japan once the Japanese became sympathetic to the Bible.
These things were repeated again and again, and after a series of discoveries and uproar, finally 37,000 Christians holed up in a huge old castle and started a large-scale revolt in which foreign warships also joined in.
This was the entire reason for Japan's subsequent long isolation.
It was no surprise that the whole of Japan was wary of the Europeans, from the Emperor, who was the supreme authority in Japan and whose primary task was to protect the peace of mind of the Japanese people and the land of Japan, to the Shougun, who were in charge of Japan's military and administrative affairs at the Emperor's request, to the Japanese warriors, farmers and merchants.
The portrayal in Sakuna portrays it as much smaller and far less worrying than it actually is.
In fact, Japanese people living today may make friends with people from abroad, but they do not approach foreign religions.
Few Japanese are fooled by the beauty of Christian buildings, costumes, decorations and the sound of hymns.
This is because the Japanese know what people from abroad and foreign countries who follow this religion have done to Japan and the Japanese people in the past, causing the country to be closed off from the rest of the world.
So when it comes to making friends with people from overseas, Japanese tend to be very cautious and draw a clear line.
This would not convey to people abroad the origin of the tension and wariness that Japanese people feel when dealing with people abroad.
I wonder if people at the TV station altered it because they were concerned about its popularity with people abroad.
Television was originally introduced from abroad, and in Japan, TV station personnel are said to be unusually kind to people from abroad.
