Zero is the best fighter in the world
The world's best fighter plane, the former Japanese military's pride, is the Zero Fighter. The Zero fighter is a carrier-based fighter that was adopted by the Japanese Navy in １９４０. The aircraft boasted the world's lightest weight, and above all, the pilot's proficiency is said to have been at the highest level at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Zero Fighter adopted in ２６００ of the Imperial Era
The number ０ in Zero Fighter comes from the last two digits of ００ in the year ２６００ of the Imperial era. This is a surprisingly unknown fact. In history classes at school, we learn about kamikaze attacks and the Zero Fighter, but I don't remember ever hearing the concept of the imperial era.I wonder what that means.
Where did the concept of imperial history disappear?
In fact, many Japanese people don't even know the concept of the imperial period. If that's the case, there's no reason why the ０ in Zero Fighter has any meaning. It's very strange. The Koki is Japan's unique calendar that starts from the year in which the first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, ascended the throne.
The concept of Japanese imperial history
This year is the ２６８２nd year of the Imperial Era, so it is simple and clear that it has been ８２ years since the Type ０ fighter was adopted. That would be ２６８２ years after Japan worshiped the Emperor and demonstrated its national polity. This shows the number of years that Japan is considered to be the longest-lasting country in the world.
Lost imperial period
It's a mystery why they stopped using the concept of imperial history at all. When I looked into it, I found that there was no scientific basis for it, such as whether Emperor Jinmu actually existed, or whether February １１th (Koki New Year) was really the founding day of Japan.
And it seems that due to GHQ's wishes, the National Foundation Day itself has been abolished. So what exactly is Western history based on the birth of Jesus Christ?
Japan is the longest-lasting nation in world history. Its history and culture have been formed within the framework of the nation that has been inherited. The most straightforward time scale for Japan's long history and culture can be said to be the imperial period.
The imperial period is the very history of Japan
Although the concept of era name remains, there is no concept of imperial period. This is not to say that history textbooks and all Western calendar notations should be replaced with the Imperial Period. At the very least, we should recognize that Japan's history is long and that Japanese children were born into it, and that we have some role to play in inheriting it, and that we should be proud of it. The revival of is important.

Japan is a maritime nation that knows everything about the sea - there is nothing we can learn from China and South Korea.
The reason foreigners who have eaten sushi in Japan say that Japanese sushi is different is not just the skill of the sushi chefs or the freshness of the fish. Japan's fishing industry is not just about collecting fish. Depending on the characteristics of the fish, the fish are caught during the season when they are at their fattest or when they are rich in nutrients before spawning.
Yellowtail is caught in various places in Japan, but it is said that the yellowtail caught in the area of Himi in Toyama Prefecture is the highest in Japan, and the reason for this is that melted snow from the Tateyama Mountain Range covers most of the areas where humans live. Because the yellowtail is nurtured in the mineral-rich seawater that flows into Himi Bay without passing through the water, it becomes a delicious yellowtail that is incomparable to any other. Japan's fishing industry has been carried out based on careful consideration of the fishing grounds, even the river water that flows from the mountains, and the knowledge of the temperature and temperature that changes depending on the seasonal flow of ocean currents.
Looking at the reactions of China and South Korea regarding the Fukushima treated water issue, it appears that although both countries have nuclear power plants, they do not have the engineers to develop the fundamentals. They probably purchased equipment from overseas, installed it, learned how to operate it, and then started generating electricity. Even if we say that we are building a nuclear power plant in our own country, we are not talking about the basic parts, we are doing things like minor changes in a car, but we are not talking about the actual radioactive materials, what is contained in the cooling water, etc. doesn't seem to know.
People are crying out that their country's fishing industry will suffer catastrophic damage, but Japan is one of the leading environmental conservation countries among developed countries and knows everything about fish ecology, ocean currents, and seasonal changes. It is safe to say that there is nothing to learn from China and South Korea. Then, the release into the ocean was started in collaboration with an international organization.
For the next 30 years, China and South Korea will live in fear of radioactivity, but this is not a problem that Japan perceives. Japan can only properly overcome the unprecedented nuclear power plant accident, release treated water, and continue its life as a maritime nation that catches delicious fish as before.
Japanese cuisine that brings out the taste of ingredients.Japanese unique evolution without spices.
Japanese food is said to be unique.Japanese food uses very little spice.The West colonized Asia for spices.In Western cuisine, pepper is a magic powder used to eliminate the smell of meat, and pepper is indispensable for preserved meat such as pancetta.It is said that Japan did not have access to spices because it was closed to the country at that time, but since the Meiji Restoration, there have been no dishes that use a lot of spices.South Korean food is rich in chili peppers, which came from Japan when Hideyoshi went to Korea.Soy sauce comes from China.The distinctive difference between Chinese and Japanese cuisine is that Chinese cuisine uses a lot of oil, but the Japanese don't like it.As a result, it led to the longevity of the Japanese.
The basis of Japanese cuisine is soup stock.In Japan, umami ingredients derived from seafood are historically used.Glutamic acid, the ingredient of Ajinomoto, was discovered by a Japanese, Ikeda Kikunae, and is said to have made world cuisine delicious.Glutamic acid is one of the delicious ingredients, which is also derived from the exploration of the taste and ingredients contained in Japanese ingredients.
In 1907, Ikeda Kikunae succeeded in extracting sodium L-glutamate from kelp.
In the West, the concept of soup stock includes French cuisine using consomme soup.In Italy, fish and shellfish are boiled down or fried as toppings, so you can get soup stock as a result.Boil down the ingredients in soup and you'll get the soup stock.The world-famous soups are Borscht and Tom Yum Kung.
Many foreigners say that Japanese sushi is delicious because it is fresh, but that's not the case.At high-end sushi restaurants, tuna is matured with the restaurant's technology for a reasonable period of time and sushi is made with ingredients that bring out sufficient flavor.Since there were no spices in Japan, it is the present state by pursuing technology and harmony that fully brings out the taste of the ingredients.This is one of the unique dishes in the world.
Japanese food has developed into its own style because spices did not enter Japan during the long period of isolation.
The founding of Japan as seen from legends - The nation was unified by becoming subjects of the imperial line, rather than by the concept of national borders or ethnicity.
In mythology, the country of Japan is said to have originated from Awaji Island, where Izanagi and Izanami created islands from the drops that fell from the tip of their spears. The place where Ninigi no Mikoto's descendant descended is said to be Mt. Takachiho, which straddles Kagoshima and Miyazaki, and the legend of the founding of Japan first begins in western Japan.
During the pacification of Ashihara China, Ameno Kagase, who resisted the imperial lineage to the end, is said to have been cornered by Futsunushi and Takemikazuchi to the edge of what is now the Boso Peninsula, and Takemikazuchi was in Ibaraki Prefecture. There is Kashima Shrine, which is dedicated to the god of thunder, and Takemi Raijin is also known as the god of sumo. It is said that even the powerful Tsunetsu Nushikami and Takemika Raijin were unable to subdue Amatsu Onsei, and in the end it was subdued by the god of textiles named Takehazuchi. A male god is enshrined here.
For this reason, Chiba and Ibaraki prefectures are dotted with many Hoshigami shrines that enshrine Amatsu Onsei, who was a force of resistance to the imperial lineage. It is ironic that Kazuo Shii is a resistance force against the current imperial lineage, and that Shii Kazuo is from Yotsukaido City in Chiba Prefecture, that left-wingers have immigrated from all over the country during the Narita Struggle, and that powerful people of the Ritmin movement are from Chiba Prefecture.
Based on this premise, the current Tohoku region and Hokkaido are not included and are called Ezochi. Afterwards, Ezo was pacified and incorporated into Japan. What is important here is the criterion of whether or not a person becomes a vassal of the imperial line or not, and the current concept of borders and ethnic groups under international law does not exist in the first place.
It is said that many ethnic groups have come and lived in Japan since the Jomon period, and in Gishi Wajinden it is written that Wakoku was in contact with Inuya Korea, and in the Book of Later Han, it is said that Wakoku was in contact with the country of the peninsula by land. There are possible descriptions. It is said that Wakoku extended to part of the peninsula. There is also a theory that Wakoku was actually involved in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms of Korea, and although they deepened their friendship with Baekje and participated in the Battle of Hakusonko, they were defeated, and Japan accepted the Baekje people as refugees.
Historically, the prerequisite for being Japanese was whether or not a person would become a subject of the imperial line. Based on this premise, the first article of the Japanese Constitution states that the Emperor has been the symbol of Japan from the time the country was born to the present day. As a result, Japan is the country with the longest history in the world.
As a side note, Governor Denny Tamaki of Okinawa has no interest in what Japan is, he seems to have no interest in Japanese history, and he seems to have no intention of obeying the imperial line or the Japanese constitution.
Hideki Tojo's grave is located in Migane, Aichi Prefecture - China and South Korea's opposition to visiting Yasukuni Shrine is cultural interference born of ignorance.
Hideki Tojo rests in Migane, Aichi Prefecture
What are China and South Korea demanding
All graves are in separate locations
Shrines are not graves
I think Yasukuni Shrine is a graveyard
South Korea, a country that digs up graves
Yasukuni Shrine throughout Japan
The photo I posted is of the Mausoleum of the Seven Martyrs of Japan, located on Mt. Mt. Mt. Mt. in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. It enshrines seven soldiers and politicians who were executed by the Tokyo Tribunal.
Those enshrined are Hideki Tojo, Kenji Doihara, Seishiro Itagaki, Hyotaro Kimura, Iwane Matsui, Akira Muto, and Hiroki Hirota. The remains of these seven people are said to be buried under this mausoleum. In other words, the graves of Hideki Tojo and others are located here.
So what exactly are China and South Korea saying? They say that the Prime Minister should not go to Yasukuni Shrine because war criminals are enshrined there. The German Chancellor is loudly shouting that he will visit Hitler's grave.
As mentioned above, the grave is in a different location. A shrine is a shrine. It is said that there are over 2,466,000 heroic spirits enshrined at Yasukuni Shrine, and each of their graves was probably erected by their local community or family members.
I wonder if the Japanese Prime Minister went to visit the Mausoleum of the Seven Martyrs of Japan in Aichi Prefecture.
A shrine only has a divine seat, which is said to be the place where the god appears and sits. A shrine is not a grave. It is essentially impossible to separate the divine throne. If there is a division, it is a branch shrine.
China and South Korea demand that the Yasukuni Shrine be separated for war criminals, but this is probably also the idea of graves. The remains of the heroes are not buried anywhere in Yasukuni Shrine. They mistakenly think it's some sort of mass grave.
In South Korea, the grave of a Korean War hero buried in South Korea's national cemetery was recently dug up because he had served in the former Japanese army. From Japan's perspective, it is a country with a culture that is extremely abnormal. In the first place, shrines are not graves, and that is also the extent of our understanding of graves.
In conclusion, if Yasukuni Shrine is enshrined in two parts, there will be two Yasukuni Shrines, and if it is enshrined in ten parts, there will only be ten Yasukuni Shrines. It might be a good idea to have Yasukuni Shrines all over Japan. It may be a talisman to keep people who flirt with you away from Japan.
A celebration of shadows, a blend of Japanese and Western Japan.The continent abolished writing and destroyed its past.A completely different approach to history.
Japanese culture and shadow worship
Beautiful Japanese lacquerware in the dim light
Japanese aimed for balance and harmony
What was done on the continent was the denial of the past
Kanji abolished in Korea
The introduction of simplified Chinese makes it difficult to read the past
If you can't read past documents, you can't read history
Learn ancient Japanese and Chinese texts
A continent that burns the past and creates history
Japan's imperial family continued to exist
When I think about Japanese culture, I sometimes think of Junichiro Tanizaki's ``In Praise of Shadows.'' He remembers that during his junior high school Japanese class, he encountered some difficult sentences and had trouble understanding them. He talked about how you can rediscover the wonders of Japanese culture by learning about the background in which that culture was born.
Japanese lacquerware is based on black, and Japanese lacquerware was created in an era without electricity to create a beautiful appearance on a dimly lit dining table lit by candles. It was explained that.
White plates and glass cups became prized, perhaps because black dishes didn't look good in the light of a light bulb. However, if you eat on Japanese tableware in the dim darkness of candlelight, you will notice something beautiful about it.
To put it simply, in Japan there is a term called fusion of Japanese and Western styles. During the Meiji and Taisho eras, a large amount of Western culture flowed into Japan, but the Japanese strived to balance and harmonize with Japan's ancient culture. This is inheritance based on compatibility and harmony.
Yukichi Fukuzawa described Western culture as being like an epidemic. He preached that resisting these things would not prevent them from becoming infected, so we needed to think in terms of accepting them.
Japan sought compatibility and harmony not only in vessels and cultural customs, but also in the letters and documents that conveyed them.
On the other hand, what happened on the continent seems to be different. What is China's Cultural Revolution? In introducing socialism and communism, it was a movement to destroy the historical Chinese culture that they were proud of, and they actually destroyed cultural properties and slaughtered the people who had protected them.
What about in Korea? After becoming an independent country after the war, in 1948, it was decided that official documents should be written in Hangul under the Hangul Special Law, and in 1970, the abolition of Chinese characters was declared, and Chinese characters began to disappear from textbooks one after another. It seems that there is no problem with using Hangul as the national script, but by abolishing Hanja, it became impossible to read past documents. Efforts to abolish writing are incomprehensible to Japanese people.
The same meaning applies to simplified characters (current Chinese characters that have been simplified and symbolized), which were introduced during China's Cultural Revolution. By replacing Traditional Chinese (old Chinese characters) with simplified Chinese, people who received subsequent schooling were unable to read documents written in Traditional Chinese in the past.
Currently, traditional Chinese characters are used in Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. This was because he wanted to be influenced by the Cultural Revolution.
Particularly in South Korea, historical perceptions change so freely that one major reason can be said to be the inability to approach past documents.
Documents from the Japanese colonial period and even earlier were written in Chinese characters, and modern Koreans are unable to read any of them. You probably don't even want to read it. Does it mean that history does not already exist in documents?
As an Asian, this is truly deplorable and pitiful. Is it possible to foster national consciousness and culture in this way? Both of these are unthinkable in Japan.
Japan continued to utilize the writings of the past, reinforcing the sounds with hiragana called Manyogana and inventing Japanese writing.
Texts from the past also have different phrasing and adjectives, so in Japanese education, we study classical and Chinese texts and try to read past documents. This is to experience the way of thinking and cultural customs of Japanese people who lived in the past.
To begin with, the history of the continent is one in which kings kill other kings due to wars, and dynasties change. At that time, many things built by past dynasties will be destroyed, creating a structure in which a good king reigns after defeating a bad king. At that time, something called ``book burning'' is performed. Documents from the previous dynasty were burned and destroyed. The destruction and fabrication of history is not new.
The only dynasty in Japan exists outside of the imperial family, and the Japanese imperial family has been protected and maintained through all eras. The Japanese never thought of abolishing the imperial family in any social change. For this reason, we can know that Japan existed with the Emperor even during the #Imperial Era.
In other words, the continent's approach to the past and Japan's approach to the past are fundamentally different.
