Someone in IJN wanted to get rid of him. So the telegram was not accidental but intentional. They rid of him by Allies’ hand….

The P-38 was the perfect aircraft for this mission.

Los japomeses, por orgullo, no querian aceptar que sus codigos ya habian sido desifrados. Para esa epoca Japon tenia problemas de combustible para su maquinaria de guerra. El mismo Yamamoto predijo que Japon podria luchar bien por un par de años, pero despues no podria mantener el mismo ritmo ante EEUU y pese a su advertencia se dio luz verde para la guerra. Como buen militar acepto las ordenes y puso su ingenio para resistir hasta donde le dio sus fuerzas. En cierta manera fue una muerte con honor.

This show paints Nagumo in a far more sympathetic light than Midway did as being surrounded by people who didn't get the memo lol

R.I.P. Gen. YAMAMOTO ⬛⬜🟥🤝🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵

After all this, the Japanese calmed down and made Toyota, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Mazda, Subaru, Nintendo, Sony, Sega, knives, toothpicks and a thousand other great things.

the great patriot admiral YAMAMATO

石油備蓄基地を叩かなかったのは、南雲最大の失策。 その後、アメリカ機動部隊は自由に太平洋に進出出来た。

I presume they are delibarately being theatrical (i.e. overacting). Does anybody really talk like that?

Was this the Battle of Midway?

What I can't accept is the scene where Japanese Pilot Amiga dives his plane into an American Carrier. Although the American side lost the Yorktown, there was nothing like this at Midway.

いまからアメリカトランプ政権に対して宣戦布告してアメリカつぶそうぜ！日米同盟破棄だ

山本五十六の力量不足

He should have listened to his own words, and survived.

With the Japanese code broken the operation had very little chance of success. Yamamoto knew the whole war strategy was going to fail, the only chance of success was for the US to suffer defeats so severe they would sue for peace which wasn't going to happen

6:02 有馬の零戦は爆弾抱えてないし体当たりしても大爆発しないだろ

It was one of those plans where EVERYTHING had to go right, while one hiccup doomed it. This was just a logistics mess with too dispersed groups and competing agendas.

If anyone wants to know more, "Shattered Sword" is a phenomenal book on the Imperial Japanese Navy and its downfall

Everyone should read "Shattered Sword" if you haven't, and have interest in the Pacific War and the Imperial Japanese Navy

Why the glum look.

World War 2.. such a tragedy..nobody really won

That scene looked very realistic to me....and I salute those who created it! Although I admire the dedication of the Japanese in WW II I found it difficult to feel much empathy because hey, THEY started it!

It was a major mistake by Nagumo that negated much of the strategic victory in weakening the Pacific Fleet for six months. He paid with his life on Saipan.

全て暗号が解読されていた

They were more afraid of the missing carriers than of NOT inflicting a truly debilitating blow. Yamamoto should have made it clear that just sinking battleships was NOT enough of a blow to cripple the US Pacific Fleet. With 6 fleet carriers, Nagumo had the advantage....more than at Midway....should have refueled and stayed in the area until the US carriers showed up. Certainly should have launched another attack or two... fuel tanks...hangars... OTHER SHIPS/SUBS.

The problem for Admiral Yamamoto was not that he had to fight the American Navy, he also had to fight the Imperial Japanese Army.

Never start a war if you don't have a plan to win it.

The Japanese messed up at PH by not sending out recon planes to find any nearby American Carriers. They messed up by not sending the whole Kitu Butai to Coral Sea. Japan messed up by sending some carriers to the Aleutian islands.

政治家は人気を得るために新聞ラジオなどを利用し、マスコミは部数を伸ばそうと血気盛んな記事ばかり書く。それに煽られて国民は強気な外交姿勢を求めて、さらに政治もマスコミも強気になっていく。この危険なスパイラルに陥っている様子がよく分かる。そして究極の外交手段である「戦争」を求めるようになってしまった。

Yamamoto was a great man, no doubt, but Japanese revisionism portrays Nagumo way too harshly. Yeah he made some major fuck ups but from the Japanese portrayal, he singlehandedly cost them the Pacific War. I know every movie needs a villain but still...Yamamoto deserves just as much blame for PH and Midway, they were his babies after all.

People keep getting the Doolittle Raid wrong. The B-25's came in independently (not in any kind of formation). They were *very* low as they came in, climbed to 1,500 feet, bombed and then got back on the deck to bug out. The bombs were very scattered and many people on the ground saw and heard nothing. Go read Lawson's book for cryin' out loud!

Midway Island is actually 2 islands and an atoll.

*You know in 2011 there was CGI available that was MUCH better than the crap "cgi" in this.*

I'm no military strategies but how did the Japanese expect to resupply the midway islands thousands of miles from Japan, if they did capture them?

大東亜戦争の幕開けは、昭和１２年です。

I enjoyed this.

いまだに山本五十六この局面将棋なんて指してるんだとするものがいるけども あれは中国古典の傑作のひとつ「三国志」のなかに出てくるもの。 リーダーが如何なる場面でも冷静沈着にいられるかを表したもの。 五十六は北陸長岡藩の武家の出身。こどもの頃からの武家の教養として三国志は読んでいるはず。 まわりの参謀たちもそのことを咎めないのは同じように知っているからだろう。 軍人のなかにはけっこう芸術・文化に精通していた者がいたことは確かなようだ

Today, he would be charged with War Crimes by the Hague, and hanged. He was no war hero. But a victim of totalitarian visions of world domination.

Order. Counter-order. Disorder.

Good movie

If you look at the Japanese perspective prior to the start of WW2, their logic made sense as to why the war started. The Japanese saw an isolationist United States still reeling from being dragged into WW1 against its will and still recovering from The Great Depression. Furthermore, the Japanese saw how the US was not intervening with troops in Europe when Germany looked unstoppable and stood idle while Britain was pummeled by The Blitz. They genuinely believed a decisive initial blow would cause the US to call it a day and stay out of Asia.

If anyone is interested in how The Battle of Midway was actual fought (and the USS Yorktown was never hit by a suicide attack, what BS) then I highly recommend reading the book "Shattered Sword--The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway" by Jon Parshall and Anthony Tully. The book recounts the battle from the Japanese point of view and destroys the myth of the "five minutes" that doomed Japan.

史実では８時30分には第一次攻撃隊を収容している。米国の攻撃を受けたのは10時前後。運命の5分といわれているが、実際には米空母を補足できないまま一方的に空爆を受けた可能性さえあります。汚名を少しでもかえすために、運命の5分だとか、兵装転換さえなければとうい美談が創作されたのかと思います。

Yamamoto's early support of naval aviation means he should bear partial responsibility for IJN not being able to advance technology and replenish manpower...... not in comparison to the USN but as a fighting arm itself. It's one thing to be surpassed by the USN (although it should have been deemed a common issue for both IJA and IJN), but it's another when aircraft carriers were ultimately reduced to decoys and battleships and cruisers had to give up their scout planes to shore-based units because they had too few pilots left.

May I join u

Those .50 caliber rounds really hurt.
