We Japanese learn about Nanjing massacre. When the teacher taught the history, she showed us a video of that case and seriously emphasized that Japan used to do such a horrible thing and we must not forget about it. I keep that in mind. I'm sorry for that on behalf of Japanese.
You know that Japanese are highly respected in India, sometimes people might just think that you are Chinese, but the respect for Japanese is sky-high...
japan came from a long way. i think it is fine that china shouldn't forget this but i never knew how messed up was chinese propaganda movies were. China is openly promoting hatred and isn't that messed up...when i was young, my chinese parents made us watch those chinese showers to teach me and my brother chinese. saw many anti japanese movies. Also i never knew nationalism could get this bad. China use this to enslave their own people. They would silence their own people in mass scale worse than death count than the world war. Is china's own government the most evil towards china?
@@hardaatsinghbaath7475 was there a historic event that created that image of Japanese to Indians? or is it something more contemporary? I'm chinese-Pinoy and what my mom told me was that Chinese have a stereotype of being wealthy in the Philippines so I'm curious if this Japanese sentiment is similar in india
@@fishussugon3215 I think that there are a couple(1-2) of reasons:
1. Japanese Imperial Army had united with Azad Hind Fauj (Indian Independence Army) and fought the Britishers in North-East India during WW2, they almost had recaptured Imphal, but then Pearl Harbour happened, and they drew forces out of Myanmar.
2. They are said to be very well-behaved and thus, respected.
Hope that it somewhat satisfied your curiosity (it is good to be curious...)
clammbon , please don’t use words “ we Japanese “. Your perfect product of WGIP and GHQ. I, woke up.
I'm a Brazilian that lived in Japan for a long time and went to regular Japanese school. I will never forget the day my history teacher lectured about the Nanjing Massacre. The whole class was shocked and listened in absolute silence with a freightened look.
From that day on, I started to try to study about history in another way, because the story of the winning side is never the same as the losing side. That doesn't mean that the losing side is always telling the truth, so the best you can do is look into historical documents and judge for you own.
I believe most of Japanese didn't have a teacher like mine that had the courage to bring up that episode. And I thought extremely positive what he did. My view of the Japanese citizens didn't change a bit, but my view of war stories in general changed immensely.
Luis Gustavo Kawahara class was shocked about what happened in nanjing or shocked by the teachers boldness?
Yes，the history should be watched in many sides,the losing side ,the winning side and the third side.Then you can know the history more completely and then think of which side is correct and which side is wrong and how can we learn from these history.Chinese people don’t want want something from Japan due to the this history,we just want they know and acknowledge this history and say what their ancestors did in Nanjing were wrong.That’s this.
Look up unit 731
@@jhjzhou I just read up on it on wiki and that was far too disturbing even from a reading perspective. wow.
@@kingkang6877 yep. Completely buried because the US granted immunity to the unit in exchange for the info. A lot of the unit leaders went on to hold very high positions in healthcare and Japanese government with no repercussions. Very sad.

As a Japanese, we had never learned much about Nanjing massacre in the school. I think we need to learn what we exactly did before. And I hope China and Japan will be good friend forever.
100%agree! Face to mistake and dark side of history, and next generation should be move on to making a better relationship, so that kind of mistakes will never happen again.
how old are you, because from what i hear most japanese people are being more educated on it now than before
We have similar culture, language, I hope China and Japan can become friends!
This is dangerous and horrible, just like CCP never barely teaches the damning crazy truth about the cultural revolution, big forward leap in Mainland China.....
@@hrx2470 r u joking? Have u ever look at the history text book in China. It’s all there.
“抗日“should be translated as "defend against the Japanese invasion" (in WW2). "反日" is the word meaning "anti-Japan". If you know this is sensitive you should be careful with your translation. There are too many mistakes in the translation.
Rolland Ibrahim yup~ so disappointed with the translation 另外 提问也有问题 给我的感觉就像是已经预设立场的在循循诱导式的发问 没做到客观不持立场 不光这期 这频道几乎所有🇨🇳做的街采多少都有这种感觉
Rolland Ibrahim Japanese in these drama looks like evil monster with no hart. we can call that anti Japan.
So you think it was righteous to invade China and they killed millions of Chinese with heart?
Rolland Ibrahim oh ok u r one of the Chinese who think Japanese doesn't have hart. ok
just keep watching these let's kill monster Japanese kinda drama
And U r one of those don't have either brain or heart.
I have a good impression about China, especially people and food. I have been to China more than 20 times and never had racism remarks to me. They are generally kind and energetic and hospitable. Love from Tokyo.
Wait till a brown/black person goes there
Aadhya Chintala I watched a lot of videos of black people in China. Most of them didn’t really encounter racist people. Other than the stares and constant pictures, the Chinese people seemed relatively friendly towards them.
Been to Osaka, Kyoto, and Tokyo last year and Japanese ppl are so nice and friendly. I only learned Japanese for one year so I talked to ppl there mostly in English, and they tried their best to understand and communicate with me. Definitely want to go there again in the future, maybe Hokkaido next time!
as a Chinese, I have to say there do have invisible racism towards black, we normally would view black as crime drugs lazy violent... But if you're a really nice people, it'll be fine, don't do bad things
@@aadhyachintala8532 As a Chinese, I have to tell you that we respect everyone of different colors. But we dislike anyone who doesn't respect the orders and disciplines.

@溯洄从之. Just a question, are you from China?
Chinese young people have big and diplomatic views of political questions. They definitely have bright future.
Not under the ccp. Never forget the Tiananmen massacre of young students by the ccp!
Unfortunately, the CCP is suppressing views and is pushing nationalism to prevent people like these folks from speaking out if it doesn't tow the company line
@@metalmilitia1890 this is Asian boss ffs. How delusional are you to think they’ve had their views suppressed. You make it sound like the CCP are the Nazi’s. Are you brainwashed or something?

Amazing video. It's incredible how knowledged and well spoken these people are. Really shows a high concern for international relations and proper global relationships
I think the translation is just really great. What they said in Chinese was rather simplistic but the translation itself is... Amazingly well spoken XxxxxxD
I don't understand why you want to downplay the meaning behind the people's words... The translations are literally just relaying their messages, and it's not like any of it was added in or made up.
cuz Shanghai.
I'm not downplaying. The translation really enhanced their words. At least to me.
Hmm to me it's the exact opposite. I felt the original answer is even more nuanced and complex than the translation, since some meaning will inevitably be lost. But this is just a problem with translation in general, still really good work from the channel.
I am a Chinese. I want to share a family memory. Around Chinese New Year 1938, Imperial Japanese soldiers occupied the city where I lived. My grandmother was nine years old. Several Japanese soldiers lived in their grandmother's house. One of them had been a watchmaker before he went to war. He was a very kind man and would often bring out some tins for my grandmother to eat. He would cry every time he showed pictures of his wife and children. He did not want to fight, but the Japanese government forced him to join the war. Finally, he was killed in a military operation. I think the Japanese government should apologize for what it did, not only to the countries that were invaded, but also to the Japanese people. I believe that only in this way can they be forgiven and welcomed by all.
They already did that many times, just look at abe videos
Did Chinese government apologize to invade other countries? I guess they’re still trying to invade as of now so why apologize.

My grandparents was still a kid during Japanese invasion of Malaysia... I still remember when they tell me a lot of horrible story during the time since they are Chinese so the Japanese still treat them like how back in China.. But after all of that pain they when through, they still support me on study in Japan and they say " we hope your generation won't make the same mistake like ours "
malaysian here, its true
those were the bad days
there's saying ,"its better to be invaded by english for 500 years than by Japan for 2 years
@@tenshionslifer3031 as an indonesian, ive heard this kind of saying too by the older generation. "300 years of dutch colonization was better (at least less cruel and less evil) than 3 years of the japanese colonization. they were just so inhumane."
@@evanpasha Most of the Japanese are unaware of the atrocities of genocide rape and looting committed by the Japanese military in China, Korea, Southeast Asia. I don't believe it. Now, the Japanese are proud of Japan's ancestors who protected and modernized Asia in the past, and visit the memorial shrine every year. This is an act without self-reflection and conscience. Stop this and Japan will be forgiven by neighboring countries.
But besides China and Korea, we don't see any SEA countries object to Japan when those Japanese Prime ministers visit the war criminals worshiping shrine in Tokyo. It's like you guys just don't care anymore.

Agreed!! The news have their own agenda to push upon us.
@@jlee8 true....
He seems like a pretty smart fella overall.
idk what yall are talking about agendas etc because thats disputable. i think watching the news to learn about a countr is bad because you only get a very narrow and small piece of the cake because its only about a certaon event. if you read a book, watch a movie etc you get a more broad understanding of were these views and ideas are coming from...
I had exactly the same impression! But overall all of them had a great point of view!
It's so impressive that they're being patriotic and rational at the same time. I see how Chinese wisdom pass down to this generation.

As a Chinese from the north east, I have great grandparents that experienced the horrific crimes committed by the Japanese soldiers in WW2. and to hear some people saying Japan never did anything to China is just so upsetting. All we want is an apology and for them to acknowledge the damage that was done. I have friends who went to school in Japan who have no idea about the past and it's always a shock for them when they find out.

When mao won the Chinese civil war the Japanese were apologizing to everyone they invaded and offering reparations but mao told them they didn't need them and to take back the apology and gave them thanks because if not for the invasion he wouldn't have won against the nationalist

love this channel instead of listening to biased tv the direct opinion of the people is the best
Same here!
China uncensored is the best. Hands down.

ⵉⵏⵙⴰⴼ ⵜⴰⵎⴰⵣⵉⴳⵀ they are of course but at least thats what people really think not what a government or a certain channel want you to think
@Santiago Bron
Am wondering how my comment says that this is the opinion of all china?
does tv programs get the opinion of the whole population? you are bound to a limited amount of people that you can interview due to resources like time wise and people who actually agrees to talk to them.
what i wanted to say maybe couldnt express it well because english is not my main language is that its a source of information that is not directed against someone. Even if the scale is small they try to cover as much as they can. Am not sure how did it sound like this is the opinion of all china and the channel state that with each video "The opinions expressed in this video are those of individual interviewees alone and do not reflect the views of ASIAN BOSS or the general Chinese population."
i watched almost every video of Asian Boss,i feel that compare with other countries (like Japan,Korea,india).chinese interviewees are more educated,they not only say their feelings or just complain,they always have a clear,logical,unbiased thought of their own,I really appreciate it
It is nice to see it. But, there is a selection bias. In China, people who are willing to be interviewed for five-ten minutes are much more likely to be young, well educated and patient, thus, more likely to be unbiased. I am not sure about other countries though.
@@weizhaosun8832 That could be said for the other countries.
@Jam Lee I didn't have any statistic. That was how I felt.
@@weizhaosun8832 definitely right. From a statistics PhD student :)
@@weizhaosun8832 Very good point.
My grandpa’s entire village were wipe out by the Japanese army. He was one of the seven survivors that day. They stacked the bodies on top of each other and some survivors Who pretend death couldn’t breathe before anyone can rescue them. The other survivors can hear them crying underneath the body piles but couldn’t rescue them on time. I can relate it to his pain because we were close. I was born in 1980 and I believe the next generation will look things differently since they don’t have immediate family members who suffered from the war.
Do you know which year he was born?
CH!NA MUST RETAL!TE BACK IN THE FUTURE, CAPTURE AND ANNEXS 2/3 JAP4N TERR!T0RY!!!
The hate came from killing innocent people, not from invasion. Some of the interviewees emphasized territory, but what hurts more, is the beloved compatriots we lost, millions and millions. It's heartless to forget the history, and it is unreasonable not to move on and build new relationships. I really like Japan and the Japanese, they are really polite, disciplined. Planing on a vacation there.
Well as what I say China and Japan won’t have any new relationship it’ll be keep staying like that because we really have keep a distance away from Japanese.
I've learn Chinese in school as my third language.
And I fell in love with Chinese culture, specially cuisine.
I've also been to Shanghai, and I found Chinese are very kind people.
Haruto Hayakawa there are always kind and mean people..
I apologize for a lot negative comments here, a lot of Chinese were educated with biased history, they were brainwashed for political reason. Alternative thinking is impossible for many Chinese since "absolute truth" is what they were taught from day 1 since they came to this earth. However, more and more Chinese are waking up, we have no reason to hate each other. Let's be friends.
@@hanzhangwang691 I don't think I need to apologize. Brainwashing exists in many countries. Isn't Japan also brainwashed by the government and the media? Young people will be more likely to break through the solidified thinking, and the ideas of the older generation are hard to change. What is needed between China and Japan is more exchanges.
Chinese are kind and friendly ppl. We will.welcome any Japanese who truly loves China.
respect from China. it's always good to have a unfilted view. i'm learning Japanese too
I think one of the People made a good point “we dislike the government but not the people”
Do you know many people did support their government at that time? Eg. A lot of women help to produce the weapons in the factory.
@@iofatt China's enemy wasn't ever really the citizens, though. The true enemy was the expansionist ambition and violent militarism of both Japan as a geopolitical entity and it's top leaders.

其实人民和政府是分不开的，只是分散的人会是一个态度，聚集为群体的人又会是一个态度，本质还是一样的人，人就是这样的矛盾体
Maybe surprising to you, this might be the result of Chinese gov propaganda. Such propaganda might date back to chairman mao's era.

As an Italian I can assure that we are really ashamed about our fascist past and that we sided with the Germans and the Japanese in WW2. At school, textbooks state clearly: fascists committed crimes against humanity.
Germans are also really ashamed of what they have done and denying Holocaust would result in a criminal prosecution and several years in prison.
Now, where is this sense of shame in Japan?
Is visiting Yasunuri shrine going to improve things? Textbooks?
A true apology would be to do exactly as the Germans did: kneel down, ask forgiveness, build a few memorials and don't hide crimes anymore!
Also don't forget that a lot of Japanese people agree with their government stance on this and other issues (like whaling).
日本は謝罪も賠償もしている。ドイツと日本の違いはその対象が個人か、政府かである。韓国政府を信じてはいけなかった。だからこの結果を招いた。歴史を学んでくれ。慰安婦像は戦争の記念碑ではない。墓を設ければいいのである。また捕鯨が問題は傲慢である。イヌイットがアザラシを食べることを否定しますか？私は否定しない。日本には鯨を食べていた文化がある。骨も身も全て残さず使うことで供養になると考えている。文化が理解できないから問題というなら、それは話にならない。
@@user-rb8hu6qh9f没有像德国清算那样彻底。道歉过后接着又去参拜靖国鬼舍，参拜战犯，还有一少部分人舆论美化战争否认侵略和屠杀，别管多少确实存在。这点就和德国没法比。
The Japanese government has no sincerity. They have done much worse than Germany on reflecting history. They have not apologized for the war yet and their leaders still go to the Yasukuni Shrine where the war criminals are worshipped.
Unfortunately Japan government has never officially apologized to China and other Asia countries, neither admitted in the text book. Maybe one day I hope.
that IS so true！ first，we need official apology from japan side, then we should forgive but not forget, after that let US work together for future
I am south korean and I love both China and Japan. I just hope we can resolve antagonisms between us and have good relationship
レズミplx Yes , Asia should be united
The Chinese government need to stop blaming Japan for everything, stop stealing other countries seas and stop using North Korea as a weapon. That would be a good start.
go google Unit 731
As a Chinese people, I agree with you!!! A big Thumbs up!!
thank you
2:42 the translation is wrong, he didn't say "most chinese people are better-mannered than japanese people' he meant to say japanese people are better-mannered
Biased and false news reporting🤷🏽♂️
Deans Lester no they said “their manners, politeness, most Japanese do it better”
Anastasia Waring i think they changed it, before the translated subtitles were as I quoted
@DeansLester There is no comparison in his statement. What he meant was: Most Japanese have good quality and cultivation. This is a good thing for him.
The man said "I feel that their personal character, and personal development (literal translation: self-cultivation); these aspects are better than the Chinese."
The difference between the views from Chinese about Japan and Japan about China in your interviews is something worth talking about. Japan had a self awareness of why their views are negative but Chinese ppl had so much positive to say about Japan.
The questions asked in China and Japan have different attitude which has prejudice,not objective
でも正直、日本が中国侵略して非道なことをしてしまったことも事実だから…
日本人はもう少し、加害者としての歴史に目を向ける必要があると思うよ。
まあ、日本人が中国に対して否定的な印象を抱いている理由は中国共産党が怖いからかな…
中国の4000年以上の歴史は純粋にかっこいいとおもうし、春秋戦国時代も三國志も大好き！
1949新中國建立，並沒有侵略殖民任何國家，甚至六十年前中國就有了核彈和導彈技術。但這不是聯合國五常的默契與平衡嗎？中日有歷史問題，大部分中國人知道歷史，侵華日軍，右翼軍國主義和現在的日本人民是要分開看待的，中日相互交流學習的地方很多，希望未來更好

日本人怕什么中共啊，中共对日本做过什么吗？不要被一些别有用心的言论误导判断。中共如果做出二战日军的暴行（我认为是不可能的），中国人民第一个就不同意。中国人最了解“己所不欲，勿施于人”的道理。
I just searched 'Nanking Massacre' and OMG that was way too horrible
If you’re interested in this subject, you should watch this documentary “ The Tokyo Trails” and this movie called “ The flowers of War”. (The movie was based on real life events ) You can easily find it on UA-cam.
Watching the documentary and the movie will help you to understand why many Chinese couldn’t forget or forgive Japan and its people.
fxc2 boi oh boy. Never in my life I thought that I would look at Japan in such a disgrace. Just seeing a glimpse of that documentary made me realize the brutalities of war. I wounder why the Aristocratic Japanese are not cursed by western media the same way they curse out Nazi propaganda.
13% of A monster unfortunately the west has its own propoganda, part of which is the illusion of the completely free and unbiased media coverage... After living in Europe for half of my life, I stopped taking anything that western media has say about Asian seriously
13% of A monster The reasons is clear dude, the west don't like CCP and China, and Japan is their ally. American gov't even get data about human experiments from Japan, when Japan try to get less penalties.

My great grandpa from my mom’s side died in Japanese prison in China. I was told he was a wealthy landlord. He died from starvation in prison. The entire family lost everything and separated. My great grandma left mainland by herself and joined the diaspora. Life was tough for her. My mom grew up poor.
Fast forward to my generation. My best friends are Japanese. They had no idea about Japanese atrocities in Asia. I have only talked about my great grandpa once. Some of them were shocked and some apologized. I shrugged it off. It wasn’t their fault. However I do feel that their government need to live up to their past. An acknowledgment will make us trust their intention and sincerity. We don’t want to have to ever experience this again. I hope one day we will get the assurance and can close this chapter. Let bygone be bygone.
In Indonesia, we are taught that 3,5 years of Japan's invasion were worse than 350 years of Dutch's.

The relationship between China-Japan-South Korea will never be repaired until Japan owns up to what they did. I remember when they interviewed the japanese about Korea and none of them even knew about what the japanese did to south korean people. They can all get along but china & SK will always have a bad taste in their mouth about what happened to their ancestors (the worst part is victims of the japanese imperialism are still alive today)

Yes I'll apologise on their behalf if they did anything, but I won't apologise for the entirety of Japan especially if the new generation hasn't done anything.

I'm not gonna say my country was the worst, but I'm also not going to say it was the best.
We did bad things. We have apologised. Move forward and forget about the war. It's been how many years?
That dork who mentioned prostitute doesnt deserve any attention so I ll ignore it. For the people looking for some information about it, I would like to say just one thing. There were many people who killed their enemies during wars. But there was no one who has done the same things like Japanese at then. Jin-Lee Wei, I dont think u need to apologise for what ur ancestors have done. But how about the king of ur island ? Thats deputable right ? People who say brainwash have ever thought that they were thoroughly brainwashed ?
As long as Japanese people don't randomly start denying their occupation of call chinese and koreans rape victims names such as "paid-prostitutes" im okay with them
My family was from the north east of Shandong province, it’s an area very close to Beijing. During the war time, my great grandfather was captured by the Japanese military and sent to the north east of China (currently Jilin province) as a slave. He worked in a forest farm and was tortured by the Japanese military on a daily basis. My great grandfather passed away in 2015. His mind was not very clear in his final years, he can’t even recognise his own grandchildren, but he constantly tells us the story about his days as a slave worker in Jilin. This is the greatest trauma in his lifetime, and this will always be a tragic memory of my family.
中国人还是太善良了，对二战日本罪行接收个采访都说的这么含蓄。日本犯下的罪行比德国人恶劣，反思和德国人没法比。不应该要求战争犯的后代为他们的罪行付出代价，但不代表让他们的后代忘记这段历史。所有人都应该了解这段历史，反思历史，避免惨剧再次发生。
USA crimes agaisnt the japanese are also horrible. Concengraton camps, unnecessary nuclear bombs on hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians...
But since they won the war ans wrote history they are not depicted as vilains and Japanese forget about these crimes...

Looking at how "Japanese View Chinese" and how "Chinese view Japanese". I noticed how Japan said a lot of negative things about China while Chinese said compliments and positive things even thought they knew about the Nanjing Massacre...but I love both country.
This video is in such stark contrast to their other one where they interviewed people in Japan. The Japanese interviewees all cited media bias, stereotypes, and cultural differences as the cause of tension, only one person alluded to WWII. All the people in this interview immediately thought about the wars
Because Japan didn't get a genocide
That's the CCP at work, they brainwash their people to the max about something that happend almost a century ago, but keep their mouths shut when they annex and invaded Tibet. CCP is the true cancer to this world!
Because of propaganda, people don't understand the most important things and underlining strings being pulled to manipulate them, sad...
That's the difference
The Japanese pursue the present, while the Chinese think about the past. This difference is probably because Japan is the perpetrator and China is the victim.
U guys should do this interview in Nanjing or northeast China..
I’m so interested in 😢
I believe people in Nanjing will not say they hate Japan，cuz it‘s real manners，but Japanese Style Fake Manners

中島雅 Are you Japanese? Actually people in Nanjing are very friendly to Japanese traveller.
There seems to be a trend with the Japan videos. Everyone likes the Japanese people but just wants the government to acknowledge their past wrongdoings.
Sakio™ BEATZ ,Japan is a democratic country, I think Japanese voters share the responsibility of it.
They will not acknowledge their past wrongdoings because they only did it to Asians. If they so much as slightly offend their glorious white western patrons in any way, I assure you they will double down and apologize quicktime for their grave sins towards their Anglophone brothers
The end of time The truth is young Japanese don't care about politics and their gov't. U should watch the video that Asian boss did few months ago, about the low rate of voting by young ppl. They are not as enthusiastic as Americans are towards politics.
WERD. It's a continuous theme.
What is the meaning of "before history"?? It is not even a hundred years ago.

Jonathan Donovan Basically the fat guy hates Japan just because he watched state-run films that told him Japan was bad. That was all the justification he needed. It makes no difference that almost every Japanese military figure and soldier who was involved in those atrocities are more than likely dead today.
董思泽 He’s very ignorant and Japan is not like that today, so to me, his reasoning is very stupid. If he said something like, “I don’t like the Japanese government because they’re not teaching their citizens the truth about the war”, then that would be an acceptable explanation. But to hate the whole country? Why and for what?

Japanese public school textbooks do not adequately discuss the China war.
There are many intelligent Japanese students who know all about the Russia Japan war because it resulted in a victory for Japan.
Its a very sad state of affairs that the govt in Tokyo is not interested in changing due to the shame involved in telling the truth.
Its easier for them to focus on ancient Chinese history.

I have both lots of Japanese and Chinese Mainland customers. I would say the analysis correct. Mainland Chinese people are more for conversations, they are more open and they speak English very well. I also will say that Chinese people are very polite and I do not understand the bad “tourists” stereotypes. Japanese people on the other hand are very polite too but also very quiet and they do not speak English. I am not saying that everyone should speak English, but I was surprised by he fact that Chinese people speak English and the Japanese do not. Japanese people are certainly more to themselves whereas Chinese people are more talkative with me.
True... mainland Chinese are actually very friendly to tourist. I am Malaysian Chinese btw.
I think its probably because of the education system are different in teaching English. And Japanese is a syllabic language which kind of makes their pronunciation limited.
Dark of the knight They are Mainland Chinese because they fly from Shanghai and Beijing and they speak Mandarin. I do not hear them speak Cantonese. I grew up with lots of Cantonese speakers so I know what the language sounds like.
Because Japanese are afraid of getting wrong on probably everything ,they would felt ashamed
to be honest the bad tourists stereotypes come from chinese tour groups. people who travel with tour groups are usually the people who are usually not as financially free and well educated.
As a Chinese, I can say Shanghai doesn't represent China. You can get dramatically different opinions if you interviewed Chinese anywhere else in China, especially in northern cities.

Just to clarify one thing which may or may not cause some misunderstanding, the TV show the guy was talking about at around 00:45 is 抗日 (kangri) drama. To be specific, it refers to China's struggles against the Japanese army during WWII. Personally I think it's a bit off to label it as anti-japan show, because t's not just some generic anti-Japan material. Rather, most kangri shows focuses on Chinese heroism during the war, and is more about heroism and sacrifices than about anti-Japan. The theme of Kangri is mostly focused only on that one period of time in history.

Shanghai always pay decent respect to Japan,however if you are out of shanghai, situation might get worse.

Beautiful video, with some educated people expressing their opinions in a rational manner. After living in Asia for +10 years, I can only say that Chinese people have advanced a lot in many aspects. I've been to both countries many times (China and Japan) and met many wonderful people. I do believe relationships are getting better, especially as people use internet to learn more accurately and in more detail about things, and not just listen to the media. Thanks Asian boss for brining up such a difficult topic in an objective way, viewing both sides of the coin.

I like the minds and thoughts from these interviews...i realized the japanese and Chinese are quite objective and honest about others.
From both of the videos of what Koreans and Chinese think of Japan, it sounds like the Japanese government is fighting a losing battle w/ the islands/territory issue. Both 'Dokdo' island and 'Diaoyo' island, imo, do not belong to Japan. Both are inhabited by the other countries and have historical documentation on their side. And as history has shown, the Japanese have caused so many recent past wars with all of their neighboring countries, even the US. Japan invaded and started all of these wars, yet the government is still not taking full responsibility, by apologizing and letting go of the territories. Don't get me wrong, I love Japan and the people, but the government is seriously effed up imo.
Yes, those islands belonged to South Korea and China before World War II. Japan seized these islands through the war. Because of the Korean War, they caused some controversy. But I wonder why Japan did not give up the islands that they illegally seized. The Japanese people also think that those islands belong to them, which makes me angry!
Ancient and modern are different. In modern history, mankind has established relevant international standards of conduct and conducted territorial delimitation to avoid disputes. Ancient territory cannot even be called territory. It can only be considered as a sphere of influence. We can only say that Japan is illegal. In almost every place in ancient times, there was little communication, so your territory was robbed. You can get it back or give it up. No one claimed that it was illegal because there was no so-called international law at the time. Even if you say that the territory is won through war, we are not afraid. In the military, Japan and us are not comparable...
China’s territory lost because of Russia was actually several million square kilometers. Some parts were directly annexed by Russia. Our leaders did not even mention this point. Why are we so dedicated to a reef? Because the country in dispute is Japan, all over the country have been provoked with sensitive nerves. In many parts of the country, large-scale anti-Japan demonstrations broke out. They are spontaneous.

Sarah Kupka don't feed the chinese in their imperialists tendencies, you know nothing of their actions here in asia.

Taiwan has its only possible destiny is to being governed by a Chinese government. Btw, it’s always a better idea to have first hand information rather than listening to the media.

As much as Chinese and Korean wants Japanese to understand their war crimes, we Vietnamese also hope all these three countries understand their war crimes in Vietnam
It's hard to get sincere apologies from our politicians. I read a book called Pachinko. It talks about the Japanese occupation of Korea in the early '900. It's sad that the Japanese government still denies having committed crimes in the early 900s and during WW2. US, Korea and Japan also committed war crimes during the Vietnam War. My country has also committed horrendous crimes in the past, it apologized and offered reparations to the victims. But no apology or repair will ever be enough for what happened. I live in Europe and in the recent weeks everything has become surreal. Everywhere I go everyone talks about the war. On the news they show bodies lying on the streets every day. Today I saw the Bucha massacre in the news. It was horrendous. Let's not let our politicians make us hate each other, but let's try to get along.

不要媚日，日本人最歧视的就是中国人了还在媚日，这不是犯贱吗
但是我看到的评论大多还是比较友好的，这是为什么呢？
These chinese citizens are very wise, thoughtful and articulate.
As a Chinese, I've been to Japan and have much respect for their good manner and order of society. And I dont hate ordinary Japanese people.
BUT, the lack of historical education lets Japanese people dont even know what the f*ck this country did.
History can teach ppl lesson to avoid the regretful things. I always have a distrust towards Japanese government.
If citizens dont know, they may be innocent now, but could also be instigated in the future.
But its the same with china. There are so many massacres/killing which until now china doesn't acknowledge or even apologize. In the contrary, they block, censor do ban historical researches/dates/names etc. and have a lot of propaganda which u can't double check since it's not legally possible.
Bro they same can be said of every country.
yes...there is much censorship in CN, and every one complains about it. That's why so many Chinese get out of the internet wall to find news(not the fake news as BBC, etc) through foreign press.
There is also another kind of situation: the domestic news has reported certain news and the news boomed on the internet. However, in the next day this news will disappear because of censorship. People know at first place but gradually forget after that.
It's just a sad and sarcasm thing, but it is different from Japan. I fully hope CN and JP to become better together and finally eliminate the Gap.
Jeremy J
I'm native Japanese. I don't agree with you. Japanese government have apologized to China several times for the war between 1937 and 45 in China and have been paying so much money for the economical and technical aid to China as the compensation, which is probably not well known in China.
On the contrary, we (not Chinese) know what Chinese Communist Party had done to its people in 20th century, which included couples of the worst massacres in human history. The reliable history studies revealed estimated 65 or 80 millions people had been killed by Mao Zedong and Chinese Communist Party.
Mori Soba yes dude，I know that JP government has apologized and gave much financial aid in the 80s.
That‘s why I believe many ordinary Chinese dont hate JP.
As for the Communist history， the CN children could learn the famine and culture revolution from the textbook and CCP admitted the mistake，so that’s the main reason ppl blame CCP in China(on the Internet). And Mao is also very controversial.

szy szy스지님 screw America gov,we 3 countries should join hands long time ago instead of fighting each other
Agree
Even if all 3 joined. Still small compared to US. Haha
the US is so huge that even the 3 of them combined can't be compared to it
The 3 uniting is next to impossible because of bad blood! Japan’s nationalism is pissing China and korea. South Korea and North Korea are still technically at war with North hating Japan just as much as south korea and china or even more! China think they are number one when they haven’t even hit their own Great depression yet and with their communistic leader backing up North Korea for the Nukes, you seriously have a loose screw if you’re hopeful that they will unite! The only way they would even consider uniting was if their was some alien invasion and would need to unite to defeat a common foe! Even then, you think Aliens would even think about communicating with lesser beings like us that only know barbarism and greed? Nope they prolly just sit back and watch us destroy each other and take our resources or wait till were better as a whole humanity! So good luck on your hopeful wishes!
I’m from Hiroshima (guangdao) and my grandma survived that nuclear attack. she was so lucky. when I was little she told me that we did a lot of evil things against China, Korea, Philippines etc. she told me that’s why my town got attacked. And our teachers told us something similar. So many of us think that it was our fault.
Then why our government don’t officially apologize them for the evil things like Nanjing Massacre or comfort women issue?
I guess it’s because they don’t want us to get along with China and South/North Korea. You know there’re a lot of U.S. military bases in Japan. They want those military bases to keep working as it keeps rising their military budget. Just because it’s their business. The more we dislike each other the more they make money. It’s called “military industrial complex”. It’s the ugliest side of the capitalism.
However, there are too few Japanese who know this. This is mostly because of the Japanese government (it can also be said that the US controls Japan). As a Chinese, I hope that the Asian people will let each other's contradictions and establish a united Asia, rather than being manipulated by the United States (this is also the reason why China-Japan-ROK relations are always ups and downs). I believe that China, Japan and Korea can get along well.

War is evil and always brings great pain to people. I was in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, the town next to our county was slaughtered by the Japanese army tens of thousands of villagers（China was still a backward feudal monarchy at that time.They are just some very, very poor farmers who can't even afford to buy clothes.）.
Now the name of the famous donkey meat in the town over there is called the flesh of the Japanese soldiers（鬼子肉）.
But I think the people of Japan are good people, the bad is just ugly rulers. There are many good people in Japan who have lost loved ones as a result. Hope there will be no war in the future

I’m Japanese, to be honest, my teacher told me that Nanjing Massacre has not been identified whether happened or not. I don’t believe what he said, but I know why he said it. because he didn’t like socialism.
What I wanna say is views of people regarding history is not consistent, they are easy to get biased due to current relationship of governments.
As a person not believing any government including Japanese one, I feel learning history is very difficult.
I think only the way to learn true history is seeing photos or videos.

As a Chinese I wanna express that, Japanese culture is really popular in modern China, especially impress our youth, put history and politic on the other side... Me and most friends around me really accept the achievement and environment of ART in Japan~
I suspect there are museums in China dedicated to events like the Nanjing massacre and the like. Are there any tourist agencies dedicated to Japanese tourists to visit such museums?
I think the younger generations in Japan would be curious about learning more, but their government and education system is run by older generations who refuse to admit fault, so they don't teach students thw history about it.
Many people here in Europe travel to the holocaust museum located in the former Auscwitz concentration camp to learn more about what happened.
I think japanese visitors to such a museum would be beneficial for the relations between the chinese and japanese people, and influence public opinion in Japan about getting the government to admit what happened instead of trying to sweep it under the rug.
that's the problem,japanese aren't curious about what their ancestors did in ww2 except that they were nuked by USA,they focus on the "we're the victim" part. go watch any videos interviewing young japanese about what they did in ww2,they choose to neglect,act like those things never happened.and while chinese visit japan a lot, japanese almost never choose china as a tourist destination,so you would know how many people actually go to these museums
imagine owner of a hotel chain wrote a book denial holocast and put it in every hotel room he own,and after israel protest,they say german honor "freedom of speech",and refuse to remove the book,and many germans write letters to show their support for owner:that's what happened in 2017.japantimes: "Apa takes flak from China over books in its inns denying Nanking Massacre"
There is a museum in Nanjing itself, I've been there before when I was 11.
Simon William. They don't "neglect" it, they just don't know about it. I don't think you understand how tightly Japanese authorities keep a lid on events like the Nanjing massacre.
Aside from the nukings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the japanese education system and media pretty much gloss over the whole of WWII.
It's hard to become curious about something if you don't even know it exists or has happened.
The language barrier also plays a part. It's not like the average Japanese person can just stumble across it on google, like a European citizen can do with the holocaust.
Might just be indifference on the part of the population. Most Japanese people I talked to don't even know about Abe's right wing ties or how Tokyo metropolitan district's new governor is a member of the textbook reform association. They also didn't know what was wrong with Abe sitting smiling in a military training jet with 731 marked right under him.
They do... We Chinese were also taught to hate the Japanese in school... I think propaganda is a very Eastern thing.
I learned many things that we'd done to China and I'm sorry for what we'd done in the past.
O-mi-tou-fu. Blessings on you.

Chinese people are really beautiful and positive thinker 💜💎
Personally I have a very mixed feeling towards Japanese. From the country-level, the relationship between the two countries varies a lot due to historical and a lot of other reasons. However, living abroad, having some Japanese friends and have visited Japan in person several times, I would say Japanese are polite and friendly. I was very impressed by how modernized the country is. I hope the people no matter come from which country should learn about other cultures by reading books, talking to their people, and seeing it in person, rather than blindly following those media headlines...
5:22 Dude said it all. I hate Japanese government but I love Japanese citizens.
It's quite complicated. This is just another extreme understanding. It does not reflect the reality as like the opposite argument that emphasises the LDP government has a popular electoral mandate. The reality is in the middle.

Actually most young Japanese don’t participate during elections. Most of the voters are older people - why do you think most of the benefits in japan is geared towards the older people and not the young people-
@vkp but Chinese people can't elect their own and have no rights to question their own government.
Obviously, China young people has more knowledge and more objective.

@@yajunchen2448 absolutely right!
I think that's maybe Japanese are heavily biased by their news. But even though, I am suprised that there are still some Japanese who have objective opinions about China (in the other interview video).
China young people and old have no memory of Tienanmen Square, their news has been wiped clean. They don't even know about it. So to say they are more knowledgeable is false
Once a time I traveled in Hong KONG and lived in a youth hostel, an American tourist room mate put his finger on me and told me that : There are too much things that you Chinese people should learn from Japanese! You know what it was funny that he is a Chinese American...
What Japan did in China also happened in other countries that they invaded. I am from the Philippines and I have a very good impression to Japanese people.
im a citizen of Nanjing city i have Japanese and Korean friends but Japanese government never apologized to Chinese people for what they did in WWII and i know some of the Japanese nationalist would say it's not 300,000 but it has not about numbers but FACTS and i do respect Japanese ppl and for what i've known so far they barely know about the SINO-JAPANESE war from their education and that's what i worry about and i really like Japanese culture ,actually we Chinese and Japanese shared a lot of same culture,and for what i know the young generation of Chinese are willing to know more about Japan then young Japanese ppl know about China,it seems like Japan is really closed mind like what China did during at Qing Dynasty, so i hope we can get along together more in the future.
they did apologize but it doesn't seem sincere because every once in a while someone within the government will denied it.
Echiomega no they never, they built a memorial hall for these invaders, and these people showed up in the video don’t stand for all Chinese, I’m from canton, and japan is still a country that freaking me out, although it’s way more advanced than china in many areas.
LAZYLAM you talking about yasukuni shrine? That was built before the war.
as a Korean I hope Japan and China as well as other Asian peoples can come together as brothers. while we have our differences and our wars, if you combine all of our years of mutual benefit to eachother, you can see we have all been brothers much longer than we have been enemies. We should not blame the japanese people for not knowing what their education system never taught them. instead we should invite them to learn without demonizing them so that they can understand, so that they can feel the meaning and weight of what it will be when we forgive them for their ancestor's crimes. so that we can grow together. we have been part of a network for thousands of years. before lines were even drawn up in europe. how come they have EU for decades already and we are no where near AU? disgraceful, we should address the past sufficiently so we can finally let it go behind us, then we can work together.
"someone within the government" my ass. A large portion of the Japanese population denies it.
As an American with a Chinese daughter-in-law I had the opportunity to visit China a native insider. This video backs up my impressions. I believe US foreign policy should be one of non-interference in diplomatic relationships among countries in this region. These civilizations have been in existence for thousands of years, are educated and sophisticated and are in a better position work out their historical differences among themselves without our self-serving efforts, based on stereotypes and limited understanding of their cultures.
My Chinese girlfriend has been my source on her country's politics and history. I became interested and have read more about Chinese history and came to the same conclusion. The US is a baby compared to Asian countries and there's really not much we can do when there are so many deep-seeded feelings involved. The best we can do is step back and let people heal and evolve.

WE DON’T FORGET. Shanghai is a very internationalized city and many ppl are influenced by the Japanese culture, due to geographical and economical proximity. So it appears that most interviewees are less negative towards Japan. However if you can go a bit inland, you will hear things very differently. I personally don’t hold any bias against any Japanese individual, I believe very little does. BUT, WE WON’T FORGET WHAT YOU DID, AND WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Japanese massacred almost every town they conquered, and Nanjing is just one of the them, and even now they are still denying. Not even to mention other brutalities. We are waiting for an apology, but I don’t think we can ever get it.

@@tiagocarioca I am afraid that my translation is wrong so please find your own translation.可能你们觉得自己很正义，但你们不知道的是西藏从很久以前开始就属于中国了，而中国是从什么时候开始失去自己的大批领土呢？从被西方侵略开始，我们在这两百年间受尽了侮辱，这就是你们曾经做过的事。而西藏、台湾问题只是中美战争的一个缩影，美国企图把中国打造成一个不民主的，侵略他人的国家，事实上美国才是正在侵略全世界的国家，通过各种手段。不知道你有没有听说过香港和新疆，中国正在尝试用各种方法使西部发展，如果西藏、台湾能早日和平，它们会发展得很快，相比于现在被用来当中美之间的战争工具。以及是的，文化大革命我们在学，中国是个重视历史的国家，无论在任何一个朝代，历史是我们的根与武器，“以史为鉴”，望共勉。
Japanese government should apologize to Chinese and Korean people.
Why? They didn’t do anything, it’s the EMPIRE of Japan responsible for past atrocities.
How many times do we have to repeat: they did apologize and gave reperations, but they just honour their soldiers and don't mention in textbooks. So then they keep say they never "apologized" .
Are you talking About to apologize or "apologize"?
And also across SEA.
I get that they want to raise the topic a lot.
But many Chinese and koreans saying racist nationalist and bigoted things while getting angry is constantly slapping themselves in the face in front of people .
China and Japan have a thousand-year relationship. In ancient times, China was a cultural teacher to Japan. the relationship has become very bad only since modern times. Because China has weakened in that time, Japan has forgotten the relations of the past millennium.They want to expand their territory, so they launched a war of aggression. The fundamental problem is that they don't recognize the history what they did and Japanese government even consecrate the Nazis as a hero. They cannot be as upright as Germany.
that is a false statement to say Japanese government are Nazi sympathizers. Japan preserves more ancient Chinese culture than what China is today. Chinese Communist Party has destroyed 1000 years of ancient traditions and teachings in order to imbue Socialism and Communism on its own people. many Chinese are fascinated with Japan because it reminds them of the Tang Dynasty.
Super Akagi I partly agree with you. China went through many invasions and not just from Japan due to its geography. It's much more easy for Japan to preserve its cultural. But I do hope Han culture will revive one day.
Well Japanese culture is essentially a derivative of Chinese culture

Japan tried to invade China twice in ancient history. The first time was in Tang Dynasty, the second time was in Ming Dynasty. Check out the Battle of Baekgang and Japanese invasions of Korea (1592-98).
Super Akagi
It's incorrect to say Japan preserves more ancient Chinese culture than what China is today. Japan's core culture is very different from the Chinese core culture. Japan only learned some/ maybe many superficial chinese things (clothes, architecture, hanzi, etc.), but they never learned or they wouldn't want to lean the deeper core Chinese values. One good example is a line from the movie Ip Man: 武术虽然是一种武装力量，但是我们中国武术，是包含儒家的哲理，武德，也就是仁，推已及人，这是你们日本人永远不明白的道理！因为你们滥用暴力，将武力变成暴力，去欺压别人，你们不配学我们的中国武术！
Something should never be forgotten
