Re: TB!6
Japanese is a nationality, not a race. (The fact that many Japanese people think of themselves as a specific race is part of the problem.) So even if I hated Japanese people (and I don't, I just find their popular ideologies disgusting -- much as I find Glenn Beck and neo-Conservatives in my own country disgusting) it wouldn't make me a racist. And yes, I have a problem with movies/books/whatever that are just trying to elicit an emotion from an audience without giving them anything specific to think about besides WOW WAR IS BAD. That makes for a terrible story because it doesn't have any real point other than to make you feel bad. Yes, suffering is bad. Wow, how profound.
Maybe you didn't mean it that way, especially since you're recommending another story about the bombings
Uh yeah, that was kind of the POINT of my comment -- I was explaining exactly why I had a problem with Grave of the Fireflies. I praised Barefoot Gen for being a better comic because it shows not only the horrors of war (of course I know war is horrible for civilians) but the MOTIVES behind peoples' actions. There's a great scene in Barefoot Gen where the boys are at this rally where this guy starts lambasting the Americans for essentially raping their country, but then Gen is like (and I'm obviously paraphrasing), "Hey, weren't you the same guy who was rallying everyone to go to war against the United States in the first place?" While the comic is brutally honest about the aftermath of the nuclear bombings and the brutality of American soldiers during occupation (complete with rape scenes -- there's a disturbing scene where Shinji and Gen come across a barrel at an American base and think it's food, but when they remove the lid it's full of condoms instead).
TL;DR Barefoot Gen is actually good because it makes you think, instead of just forcing an emotional response. That's not to say that most people don't have an emotional response to Barefoot Gen.
even if it was a necessary action at the time -- and say "nah I don't feel sorry for them because Japan deserved it"
I never said they deserved it, just that I refuse to feel sorry for characters in a movie that's trying INCREDIBLY HARD to make you feel sorry. That just makes for a poor film. Besides, the movie has no real plot besides WE'RE DYING.
