a LEGENDARY duo... a one we never expected but wanted.

民族の歌のメロディと同じ！知らなかったです。

I heard a different version on Spotify from the Jgsdf army band. It would be cool to have romaji of other of their songs. Good channel keep it up pal.

Awesome! Have you done 第六潜水艇の遭難?

Huh, what a coincidence! Right in the period where I was getting obsessed with this song hehe! Could you please translate this song's prelude, Minzoku no Uta? It has many verses and its basically 13 minutes long, so maybe you can leave it as a side project until you've translated all the song in your list. Thank you very much and know that your work is highly appreciated!

If Japan had attacked the USSR in 1941 instead of the United States at Pearl Harbor, would the USSR have been defeated? The answer is unequivocally that the USSR would have been defeated. Yes How did Japan not know that it would win World War II if it invaded the Soviet Union at this opportune time?

Because Japan kept its word. Japan signed a neutrality pact with the Soviets before Germany attacked the Soviets, and the pact didn't break until the Soviets scrapped it illegally in 1945.

Japan had non agression pact since the battle of Khalkin Ghol + Japan was engaged in China since 1937, opening a secondary front with Mongolia and USSR in Manchuria (without taking the ressources of South Asia) would have been suicide. Untill 1942 there was a pretty big army, the soviet army of Siberia ( 18 divisions, 1,700 tanks, and over 1,500 aircraft ), The same soviet army wich has been recalled when the german were in front of Moscow and when Stalin learned that Japan would not attack (so this army was what Japan would have faced if they attacked + Mongolian army and soviet reserve armies) On other hand, the neutrality pact between Japan and USSR made that USSR recalled some volunteers from China while the 1st american volunteer group (famous flying tigers) were in China even before Pearl Harbor so the USA were kinda a threat to Japan. Japan couldn't have win against USSR neither than against USA (When I say win, I mean win in a sens "win" the entire war and gain territory/influence/reparations), *BUT* if you look at the Pacific Campain most important battle, you clearly see that Japan could have win the Pacific War (The Attack of Pearl Harbor targeted Ships, mostly Battleships and not thet much the infrastructures + the US aircraft carriers were not at Pearl Harbor), the battle of the Coral sea and After Midway is mostly a lack of luck from the IJN, Guadalcanal was a disaster because the IJN and the IJA couldn't behave, and after that Japan couldn't win). With a bit of luck (weather conditions, good transmissions, the sink of the Yorktown during Coral Sea battle instead of Midway, a better flexibilty with Japan airwings on their Carriers and a bit less of rivalty between IJN and IJA, Japan could have win the war on sea and force a white peace with the USA and the end of the embargo, but not more. But a long war with territory gains against USA wasn't possible. And for USSR ? Can you imagine the Japanese army crossing the entire Siberia in the coldest winters of the century (1941-1942) from Amur to Urals mountains, more soldiers should have died from starvation and cold than against soviet bullets, invading Russia is difficult even if you are coming from the western side, from the far east it's mostly impossible. (And you can imagine that Russian reserves forces should have come in China, and giving tons of rifles to Chinese or at least training them, the entire frontline would have been a hell for Japanese forces), and in the case of a Japanese attack of USSR, the US intervention was still possible (British pressure) In short, attacking the USSR was unthinkable for Japan at the time, and the preemptive attack on Pearl Harbor was one of the best choice, discussing about the date or HOW they should have done it is another thing, but it was one of the best move to make.
