In the corner of this world finally beat Your Name in Japan boxoffice daily ranking

Does this mean nips finally realized what is the true masterpiece? What took them so long to overcome their shit taste?

>In This Corner of the World tells the story of the adolescent Suzu, who in 1944 moves to the small town of Kure in Hiroshima to live with her husband’s family.
Oh fuck this

It's a good movie. When I was watching it in Hamburg Germany the movie theater was full of Japanese people

shouldn't have bombed pearl harbor, fucking nips.

The critical success is kinda nuts, can't help but feel the film won't meet my expectations. I'm sure it'll be the best in a good while though.

haha epic:D this is going on Sup Forums^

How do we kill Sup Forums from this board?

Ignore it

Same when I was in Cologne. The movie was really good too.

I felt that way too, going into the movie at first. The only part that did kinda let me down was the ending, otherwise it was really just fantastic

Yamada BLOWN THE FUCK OUT

So is Yokai watch and that move has 2x the screening of In this corner of world but still fail to beat Shinkaishit

Good to hear, I'm very hopeful.

Man, many good movies recently. Sucks that blu-rays take fucking forever to come out.

If Your Name is said to be guaranteed to surpass Titanic by the end of its run, hence making 2 billion yen more, does that mean In This Corner of The World can also make more than 2 billion yen more from now considering its holds are consistently stronger than Your Name?

Tabu.

It aged about half of Your Name (13 vs 24 weeks) and just has real large scale screening. Your Name was predicted to gain with just 1 billion more at the end of April due to reducing of screen time.
Can Corner get more 2 billion? It's depends on whether it will lose this strong momentum to newer movies like Hirunehime, Conan or Doraemon.

It won't be anywhere near as commercially successful as your name

must've been a fucking pain having to watch that dubbed in German

It was Japanese audio and German sub.

I know that this isn't the thread for this but what's the prediction for the KnK BDs when it has 10k points 3 months prior to release on Stalker? Can it reach 20k sales?

They should make one about Fukushima.

They already did, sort of. Katabuchi directed a music video for that song that was produced to encourage support to the region after the earthquake. Even had Fumiyo Kouno doing the character designs for it.

There are some good LA ones.

>Does this mean nips finally realized what is the true masterpiece?
Your Name - $330 million
In This Corner - $fucking nothing

Pearl Harbor apologists BTFO

I want to lick suzu's toes.

Kill yourselves nuke apologists.

kys cancer

We won. Get over it, shill.

>1944
>Hiroshima

Can't wait to see the film. Read the manga recently and loved it.

Japan has been putting out some solid films lately.

Meanwhile In This Corner of the World has won:
>best film of the year in art film magazine, Your Name was ranked the 4th worst film of the year
>best Japanese film and director of the year at Kinema Junpo both by critics and the general audience
>best art animation, 2nd best film and best film music of the year at Mainichi awards
>best film of the year at the Yokohama film festival
>best director of the year at the Blue Ribbons award
Excluding Mainichi, only Miyazaki from the entire anime industry has won these awards.

Actually one quick look at google should you tell only Miyazaki's works have been a contender for best film of the year at the Mainichi awards. Katabuchi being Miyazaki's former 'protege' is really the only other director to have transcended the anime-live acton barrier that generally surrounds awards like these.

all of those people are just contrarians. Face it, Your name is just objectively better.

>own that exact set of books and cd.
Are you me?

this movie is supposed to make you feel bad at hiroshima?

nobody wants your drama

>hating Sup Forums = being a shill
Explain further.

Nice feet

I don't think it's just that. I guess more like a anti war message, just to see that behind the actions of big countries normal people are also affected. In fact what the fuck i'm doing; fucking japs, race war, now REEEEEE

>Katabuchi asked Anno if he had seen In This Corner of the World, and Anno replied, "I saw it. What a woman, doing nothing. I wanted to strangle her."

>who in 1944 moves to the small town of Kure in Hiroshima to live with her husband’s family.

So she dies?

Also i'm tired of nip propaganda, they were butchers and then act like victims when bigger butchers butchered them

On point.

>should we accept conditional surrender
>nah, we gotta show Ruskies our powah and conditional surrender is not enough for us, we want more
>[bombing externally]
>I guess now we can accept conditional surrender (Nips only gave up after Burgers promised not to harm emperor, so guess what, it's still a conditional surrender)

>years later proceed to teach children some retarded false dilemma shit to justify this dick waving contest

I kinda feel bad for humanity.

>japan making anti-war message
>bomb someone
>get bombed back
>"h-how could humanity be so cruel!"
Disgusting. Grow a spine you dumb nips, how did they go from the samurai to this?

REEEE

Fucking wrecked, how can one man be so based?

If North Vietnam had somehow managed to nuke the US, Americans would still be butthurt.

I think it's more basic. The movie is supposed to make you feel bad about hurting civilians in war in general.
It shows what effects war can have on the lives of people who are personally uninvolved in war.

Other motives I noticed were :
How it's important to act when you get the chance or it may be to late
Growing up and taking responsibility
Forgiveness

And honestly, saying that it's "supposed to make you feel bad" doesn't really fit the narrative. To give you a somewhat bad metaphor, the movie is more like watching a child grow up only to eventually get run over by a train.

Cause they were civilians that died

tbf filmmakers in the immediate post war period were within their rights to portray japanese war crimes
sure, the far right still denied it, but they had a lot less power in that period.

>Japan box-office daily ranking
Oh wow it's fucking nothing.

Wow, he really has said this.

This from that mangaka who drew that post nuke cancer victim story, yellow... something, right?
It's good stuff, and I'll prolly enjoy it.

Too bad these threads will be full of self-hating weeb liberals bitching at Sup Forumstards and WW2 autists.

Graves of the Fireflies was also kino, and most of the victims of WW2 were innocent civies who truly dindu nuffin, and nations are certainly going to be interested in thier own history, but has Japan made anything about thier own atrocities their armies commited?

There's no need to be cucked like krauts with halocaust guilt, but they still deny shit like Nanking in their history books, that's a problem.

Except America is the greatest nation in the history of nations, especially from 1776-1945.

Burgers are not used to thinking they were ever the bad guys, I mean, that goes for everyone, but Amerifats are especially bad at it in thier childish media.

>kill 2 million Vietnamese
>every anti-war Vietnam movies features boohoo crying GI pig murders boohoo

Except just like the Holocaust hoax Japan didn't really commit any war crimes

Was.
And only best between 1918~1989.

Sure thing Taro-kun
;^)

I don't understand why Americans are so upset over this. Yes, the Japanese commited many acts of cruelty during WW2, and bombing Pearl Harbor without declaring war first was a vile act, so one could argue they deserved to be nuked (debatable), but even so two of their cities were completely wiped out, it's just normal that this had a huge impact on post-WW2 Japanese culture. Do you really expect them to shrug it off because they "deserved" it?

Nips started the war, so they deserve everything, also Nazis were greatesr evil EVAR, so nips were too.

Don't bother arguing with Americans over WW2 or Vietnam, they will ALWAYS act like retarded children.

They don't? The nips started and lost the war. The only thing they ever regret is not winning. LOSERS

No but it's pathetic that in these shows the cruelty and injustice committed by their side are always conveniently omitted and "normal people" who supported the war and believed their emperor was a god, were portrayed to be completely innocent like a baby. Plenty of Japanese critics point out this exact weakness and the lack of moral courage.

>but has Japan made anything about thier own atrocities their armies commited?
The Human Condition trilogy, directed by Kobayashi Masaki. There's also Fire on the Plain, directed by Ichikawa Kon. Both go over how fucked the japanese army was whilst not sugarcoating the problems with the enemy, be it the Soviets or the Americans.

1965*

Every thread we'll have manchildren crying about who started the war and so called victimization while the actual humanist core of the film about love, family, survival and recovery through a harsh time will be ignored.

From a financial perspective that makes a lot of sense though. The movie is targeted at garnering sympathy from clueless women (exactly the MC).
Don't think you would get many people into cinema with your own country's warcrimes

>and bombing Pearl Harbor without declaring war first was a vile act
No it wasn't, suck my dick
Treatment of POWs and civilians in China were "vile acts", not a surprise attack on a legitimate military target
>103 civilian casualties
Wow, it's fucking nothing.

>but even so two of their cities were completely wiped out,
Read, all of them.
>what were the firebombing campaigns
700,000 civilian casualties.

If you want to cite justification for nuking civilians, look at shit like Bataan and I-8, not fucking Pearl Harbor.

Every major power did terrible shit during WW2, literally all of them.

What, you don't like Full Metal Jacket?

>like Bataan
Naw, we can bring up the japanese razing Manila to the ground even though it had been declared an open city.

>make Forest Gump
>what what about all the poor innocent women and children he murdered in Vietnam, wtf Hollywood??
This is how you Murrican shits sound like.

>everyone was bad!!
Fuck off you filthy millienal tadpole.

what

Ehh I am German and I don't see anyone here going to the moves to watch Nazis gas some jews and shoot up some eastern europeans. And you do make a point - though I think warcrimes are just like old anime on Sup Forums, talked to death.
Something locally done, like Corner, might actually work pretty well.
What was the last high budget warcrime movie anyway?

The vietnam war was a side show in Forrest Gump.

> and shoot up some eastern europeans
Wasn't Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter pretty well received in germany?

Not really, because it didn't show them as evil baby eaters and shows the Polish resistance as anti-Semitic (even though many of the factions in the movement were).

It's still a great little series, up there with Band of Brothers.

And the politics of actual war is backdrop in this film too.

Wiki says that the episodes got 7 mil views when they aired. That sounds like good reception.
No one is asking for Japanese war crimes to be portrayed to an exaggerated extent, simply somber acknowledgement in a respectful and artful manner, like UMUV. We don't want them to treat it like they treat the atom bomb.

>there are good sides in a war!
Found the underage.

>we want Nips to pay for chicom propaganda
No thanks, dingus.

>implying there isn't
Found the liberal arts major with a tumblr account.

The side that didn't start the war and didn't commit genicide tend to be the better side.
Aggression isn't the sane thing as defence unless you are some SF liberal lefty socialist sodomite.

Why was Japan so cruel in WW2?

Kill yourself brainwashed warmonger.

Most of the war crimes were commited by ethnic Korean irregulars left behind to guard, not the actual trained fighting forces.
Same thing with the POWs, all koreans.

Lurk for 2 years before posting, communists don't belong on Sup Forums.

Why didn't the japs just surrender?

>it was Korea's fault
Hi Takeshi.

There were no Japanese war crimes. That was just Chinese slander!

When you're building a colonial empire on prussian lines, cruelty is sort of a given.
Japan was one of the countries that didn't get the memo that that sort of thing was no good any more.

Anno just does not give a fuck.

Not "everyone was bad" but "WWII was fucking awful and nobody can pretend they weren't a part of it"

Overall, the US treated the Germans very well, treated Japanese POWs well, treated Japanese civilians way better than Russia, Japan, and China did (at least after occupation)

There was just the small matter of the US burning the majority of Japan's large cities to the ground, then nuking what was left.

Intentionally killing large numbers noncombatants is not okay, whether they be civilians or POWs, and every major power during WWII did this.

Yes, Russia, Japan, and Germany get and deserve most of the blame, but you can't pretend that everyone else had even remotely clean hands.

>There were war crimes, but it's all now used for Chinese state sponsored anti-jap propaganda.
Fiddy

Remember, when you side against Japan, you side for commie China.

>most
>all
I have never read anything that indicated that. The Japanese Army proper war crime'd it up as well as the mistreated Koreans.

Subs when?

yes yes we get it you think war crimes never happened

They did ;^)

>you can't pretend that everyone else had even remotely clean hands
Luxembourg did nothing wrong.

Because korea as a nation didn't exist, so they were considered Japanese.

I am not saying all koreans are bad, but they were ill trained "colonial" troops used to occupy, not to fight and it resulted in much abuse blamed on mucg better trained native Japanese armies afterwards.
