My grandfather was a crew member of the light cruiser Natori. His grandfather's house was adorned with photographs of his grandfather's naval uniform and sword in his lifetime from Japan.
As a Japanese, I wish that these ingenious designs were used in something else, something not to harm but save others. To be honest, they are so iconic and beautiful.
I honestly prefer the look of Japanese ships over American ones from that era. The Japanese had some of the most advanced ships in the world, and it definitely showed!
They were not intended to be used to fight to the death with Amerika. But FDR had other plans. Yamato & Musashi were beautiful machines that should have deterred aggression against Japan. The goal was to get Amerika to negotiate, not a fight to death. IJN was world's largest and strongest in 1941
Now this is what I like to see... just some good old appreciation for one of the most gorgeous navies of the past and no pathetic jokes about them in sight. Perfection
This song means "At sea battle, at any battlefield, I will do my best and die with No regret, only to leave my bones. My desire is to protect my country & die beside Emperor. I am ready to die in the battlefields, with No hesitation, with No regret, for Emperor and my homeland, to be a water corpse in the water(sea or river battle), or a grassy corpse in the mountain (battle). I am ready to die by the side of the Emperor at any time, with No hesitation, I will Never regret! I have No regrets! This is my honor!! " This poem is composed about 1300 years ago by Yakamochi Otomo, a faithful court warrior in 8th century, which is contained in the Japanese oldest poem collection "Man-yo-shu(=means every words collection) ", the first major anthology of early Japanese poetry. His Otomo clans is one of a famous hereditary aristocrat military specialty. This is in a certain sense a love song to Emperor to swear his oath of allegiance.

I would say the new Mogami-Class Frigates incorporate the aesthetic traditions you mention, just updated to accommodate today's new technologies. In the same way steamships displaced sail ships, the Mogami Class displaces those prior gunships.
Yamamoto and the Navy High Command never wanted this war, he knew what would happen when the USA got into high gear, because he saw it when he was assigned to the IJ diplomatic service in Washington DC in the twenties.
Essentially the entire Japanese military knew that; I can’t remember what it was but there was a martial meeting of the heads of the armed forces, and it surmounted to, “we either knock them out quickly and just stop fighting ASAP, or we lose, no matter how or what we try.”

During the Japanese occupation of Singapore my great grandfather use to learn how to sing this song sometimes during 15 February everyday he Always sing this song.
No, the Japanese battleships would have also performed very well in a surface engagement. What the IJN failed to realize was that at this time, maritime warfare had switched to aircraft carrier based fleets. The IJN Battleships could not get within range of a carrier.
The Japanese pioneered aircraft carrier strike group. Too bad their lacked radar, sophisticated technologies, encryption, production capability, resources and economy to compete with the U.S. Their navy were very good for the time.
@@KeiwaM Even so, their surface combatants were far too specialized for a war they couldn't fight: Small, pitched engagements against American forces where the Japanese could gain a local superiority. But by the time they stopped frantically chasing a decisive battle, any American warship at sea far outstepped its Japanese equivalent. Also, numbers. The Japanese had 8 battleships. The USN had 24 - AFTER Pearl Harbor.
The warships were perfectly fine, and they were ahead of the curve when it came to carrier aircraft at the time of Pearl Harbor. But between a bizarre submarine doctrine (a bit less bizarre when the last point is considered), having their codes cracked, and having far worse production than the US at the outset of war, let alone as it went on, meant that short of intimidating the US population into pressuring the leadership to sue for peace they had no chance. And they were actually pretty well aware of this and banked on the US citizenry being cowardly. American prejudices about the Japanese being "uncreative" lead to us being surprised at Pearl Harbor, but we could correct for that. Japan couldn't so easily correct for their mistake in thinking the US a cowardly nation.
Japan didnt fail to realize the effect of aircraft to naval warfare@@KeiwaM Infact they were one of the first to realize the true potential of airwarfare Most of their battleships are a relic leftovers from WW1, apart from the yamato Which the ship itself were planned and construct before the war, before they fully shift their attantion to aircraft carriers The US also built battleships during the war like the Iowa, so saying japan fail to realize the power of aircraft is untrue They only failed to catchup with the allies software systems, like radar, sonar, code encryption / decryption, or fire control system Their refinaries and industries are also outdating That is the reason for their major losses
hate to break it to ya but literally while every other navy in the world at the time was using radar to aim their guns the Japanese aside from Musashi and Yamato were using dye packets to help aim instead of radar.
Although not very up to date at that time they were very well Organized on Positions and got a Punch that can tear down a Wall but was overwhelmed by the US's Industrial Capacity to replace Aircraft
For some reason the movie "Midway" showed fleets of B-26's attacking Kudo Buta as bombers. In fact there were only 4 and all made low level torpedo runs and most were shot down.
A very impressive video. Excellent photos of ships that have received little attention over the years. Pity about the "video game" version of the dive bombers scraping the deck of the carrier and the other cases of artistic license.
Best Looking ships is Japanese Navy…. They do know how to make a ship looks attractive. Speaking of it….. Axis able to build a good looking ship…. Allies won the war so we never see a Beautiful shape ship like these ever again. Just look at US Morden Destroyers! They just make out of box!
Until they were FOREVER lost! What's with the hero worshiping of idiots that ended up killing over a million Japanese? Japan was doomed from the start--America won the war because we had endless resources of men, raw materials and industrial resources. Japan could barely feed its population and had zero oil. Yeah, you can remember them "forever", and then remember how many Japanese civilians that got killed forever. FYI, my dad was in the US Army Infantry and fought in Italy and France.

Well a certain Mr Kaiser is partially to thank for that. The USN's ability to produce the Essex class so rapidly certainly shortened the war considerably. Then again even if both sides had only possessed Battleships; the result would've been the same. (the IJN having several years of dominance; before a swarm of RN & USN Capital Ships struck back)
The Japanese did better with fleet torpedo boats (destroyers with torpedo armament emphasized), but overall I think the Fletcher swarm was better technologically and doctrinally. Japanese battleships were also largely inferior to American BB's qualitatively and in numbers.
Japan had the fastest cruisers with the most firepower, just not the RADAR to coordinate it all.The extra firepower made them a little top heavy and all Japanese ships had far too much wood in them - which burned. Not sure how many it made the difference of losing the ship maybe a few.
@@gendaminoru3195 I think that both type of ships have there downsides and upsides. I actually like Japanese cruisers but I just think that overall the U.S cruisers were built just a bit better. But the Japanese cruiser are still a worthy opponent to any U.S cruiser
@@Dashypuu I what way did you believe the US cruisers were superior to Japanese cruisers? other than metacentric height I cannot think of anything other than RADAR.

All it ended up doing was being good for target practice--the US Navy obliterated it in a one sided battle.

Japanese they are good at warships on that time but the things that make their ships bad is AA guns if they have a such of good or a better AA guns (and a bit thicker armour fighter planes) on that time in Battle of Midway they will lose only 2-3 cariers instend of 4 (sorry if i wrong somethings my English dosen't the best)

when i saw katsuragi, i tried to wikipedia it. And somehow, i seen lot of japanese ww2 aircraft carriers.. and for some how, im ended in "senkaku island dispute" page..
A certified IJN Junta reunification moment.
Yep, it's time for Divine Winds!
I wish Japan was still like this that Japan was better
No need more imperialism !! No need more victims
Fun fact. This song can only be played under water now.
I wonder if future generations would believe the stupidity of humanity on that war but i also pray for them to don't believe it.
PEACE TO THE FALLEN
Ahhhh yes,my favorite ijn ship....
BANZAI!!!
Banzai
If the Japanese Parliament is willing to adjust for Article 9 then you might see more new rise navy ship for the Japanese Self-Defence Navy forces in later years ahead due to the aggressiveness by China’s Navy on the East Asia territory.
Sigh if only the yamato survived the war
Imagine the chills when you walked on her decks if she became a museum ship, damnnnnnnn
Most likely would’ve been nuked or scrapped because japan doesn’t have the economy to maintain it like iowa
@@kami6311 you really drain the fun out of things
@@kami6311 it would probably rather be Taken by the Americans as War Reparations such as What happened to the German Kriegsmarine, Altho Possibility it might just be scrapped as you said but we can all dream
@@charlesjakesamadan4008 What would America do with an obsolete battleship? Japan needed the scrap iron more than America. It would have been a waste of fuel oil to bring it back to America. Besides, there was nothing on the Yamato that was worth two cents--its technology was useless. All it ended up doing was being good for target practice--the US Navy obliterated it in a one sided battle.
My grandfather was YAMATO Captain.
He left for Iskandar
Lol was he admiral karita ?
大日本帝国海軍！ 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🙏🙏🙏
it cool
This song hit so hard that my Akagi turning into a submarine
I play this song while playing world of warships and I use a Japanese ship I'm unstoppable
The american planes drops down like ripe apples in the fall. Great japanese anti aircraft gunners.
What movie?
Midway and the eternal zero ithink
Most of the air battle scenes are from the movie Midway(2019).
the IJN wished they had AA that good
I take back what I said before, actually ALL the scene are from the movie Midway 2019

[Lt Col Tanner liked that.]
Everybody mythologize the American Army, but when you hear a thousands of "Tennōheika Banzai" the one thing you can do as an American soldier is shit yourself
I play this in my War of the Sea campaign as I send the entire 3rd Battleship Division (Kongo, Hiei, Kirishima, and Haruna) down Iron Bottom Sound to blast away Allied convoys in the night.
"Brave men. we are lucky they have such bad planes" lmfao brutal roast
Why does your kinemaster logo have and word while mine is just an logo like circle with a k in the middle?
Japanese they are good at warships on that time but the things that make their ships bad is AA guns if they have a such of good or a better AA guns (and a bit thicker armour fighter planes) on that time in Battle of Midway they will lose only 2-3 cariers instend of 4 (sorry if i wrong somethings my English dosen't the best)
I gotta say I do more adore the IJN warships than the American Navy, greetings from Philippines
Go! Japanese navy
film:Midway (2019)

The Japanese warship anti-aircraft guns were chicken ribs.
