War: Russo-Japanese War. Let's piss off some weeabos. Let's piss off some weeabos. Let's piss off some weeabos.Yup, you weeabos heard, Japan was an asshole when

Let's piss off some weeabos. Let's piss off some weeabos. Let's piss off some weeabos.Yup, you weeabos heard, Japan was an asshole when it was rising in power. Try to defend them from this. Now the Russian Empire wanted a warm water port. Both the Russians and Japanese were expanding their imperialistic aims.

Now both retards couldn't come to an agreement, Japan wanted Russia to respect Korea as Japanese sphere of influence, and Japan would respect Manchuria as Russian sphere of influence. Russia said no, and to leave Korea north of the 39th parallel neutral as a buffer zone. Them Japs said no. After negotiations failed, Japan declared war on Feb 8, 1904. Now the Japanese three hours before sending the war declaration, the Imperial Japanese Navy attacked Port Arthur.

Port Arthur was in control of the Russians. When the Japanese attacked, it was eventually an indecisive outcome. It did provide a cover for Japanese troops to land in Korea.

Japanese troops Seoul

Japan attempted to block the port but was failing when they attempted to sink cement filled steamers, but were sunk too deep to make them ineffective. Russians began to use offensive mine laying and sank one Japanese mineship and another had to be dragged to Korea after heavy damage.

Battle of Liaoyang, now this was the first land campaign of the war. Now I might teach you a new word, pyrrhic. This was a pyrrhic victory for the Japanese. What does pyrrhic mean? It's a victory that the cost was so high the victory might not have been worth it. See the Russians fought the Japs, and the Japs tried to encircle Ivans but the Ivan general, Aleksey Kuropatkin, was able to inflict heavy losses on the Japs and pull out. Course they were suppose to relieve the troops at sieged on Port Arthur but they avoided being wiped out.

Jap cavalry crossing Yalu River, yeah yeah, look how they don't have body pillows or shouting retarded anime statements, yeah learn from that you weeabos.

Battle of Yalu River, holy **** , this was the first major battle which was a Japanese victory.

Russian battleship Retvizan, whose captain received severe wounds in the ship's brave solo charge against the Japanese fleet in the Battle of the Yellow Sea

The battle of the Yellow sea was a strategic jap victory, Russian perceptions of the Japanese changed and they began taking them more serious.

Battle of Sandepu, Russian troops prepare for winter fighting.

8-inches mortar battery in 900 meters before the enemy positions at Sandepu, the battle was in total indecisive with no clear winners.

Battle of Mukden, Russian Calvery recon mission.

The battle of Mukden was a bad lost for the Ruskis, they were driven out of southern Manchuria into Northern Manchuria. Japanese victory with at least 75,504 Japanese casualties, 88,352 Russian casualties.

Battle of Tsushima, this was a huge naval battle fought with steel battleships. Jesus christ it must have been glorious, and no damn waifus in skirts with giant robots , fighting you weeabos, it was battleships and soldiers against one another.

Now, it was 89 Jap IJN ships versus 38 Ruskie Naval ships. You can all probably do basic math and guess who won. Russians took heavy casualties and eventually surrendered to the Japs.

So, ya'll probably guessed good ol' Theodore "Teddy" Speak softly but carry a big stick you will go far, Roosevelt, was able to successfully broker a peace between the Russian Empire and the Japanese Empire. Russia recognized Korea as part of the Japanese sphere of influence and agreed to evacuate Manchuria. Japan would annex Korea in 1910.

And now all you weeabos are doing god knows what , no wonder Korea hates the japs. Now if you'll excuse me, i got some anime to watch ya weeabos.

Even if they did, the Japanese effectively got what they wanted. Japan wants korea, russia says **** you, war, Japan gets korea. I skipped a bunch but why would this piss off those who get hardons for 2D Japs.

Probably the biggest pissing off to weeaboos is telling them that ninjas didnt exist, didnt wear all black and didnt use ninja stars or smoke bombs.
Nearly every ninja was a samurai who was dressed up usually as a beggar or a normal citizen to kill high priority targets, like nearly every other assasin, nodarkness or shadows just an average disguise that worked

The japanese were a super arrogant people that figured they didn't have to play by anyone's rules because they were inherently the superior people and served an emperor whose word was akin to that of god.

Then they got nuked and they didn't know what the **** to think because suddenly they were faced with the very real fact that they were relying on the same notions of civility they had so blatantly disregarded time and again just to exist. They started trying to think of alternate ways to go about trying to win and how to deal with this new threat because they had previously affirmed the atrocities they committed by telling themselves that victory was worth all costs. Then they got nuked again and they finally swallowed their pride.

Only after swallowing their pride and trying to open their mind to the possibility of international civility born more out of necessity than any desire to make a better world were they able to surrender. They took this same pride, discipline and loyalty that had made them monsters back in their fighting days and devoted that to arts and sciences. By doing this they were able to become the technological mecca they are today.

way I see it is chances are if Japan in the mindset they had during world war 2 had discovered the secret to nuclear weapons, they wouldn't have stopped at launching 2 nukes to get a single country to surrender but rather would've pushed forward and attempted to take over the world before eventually over stretching their influence and falling to something like civil war.

I kind of abhor the blind patriotic loyalty and audacious sense of self superiority of the pre WW2 Japan, but at the same time I respect that after they surrendered for the most part they didn't try to call for America to answer for the atrocity of the nuking and instead bowed out fairly graciously and then found an entirely different way to prosper.

#59 to #25 - talpss (09/22/2015) [-]

They didn't just believe their Emperor was like a god, they truly believed that he was descended from the greatest Diety (Also known as an Okami, which means God in Japanese; it's slightly different from a kami, which is just a lesser spirit) Amaterasu. After WWII, America forced the Emperor to denounce this part of Shintoism as false and it's basically not believed in anymore. Sorry if I go some things wrong, I'm rusty on Japanese culture and history.

#50 to #25 - scruffyguy (09/22/2015) [-]

you ever seen elephants seal beat the **** out of each other on the beach? That's basically what war is. Its just nature. However, for humans, replace the individual seals with whole nations of seals fighting each other. As you've seen in WW2 the US was the bigger seal and beat the **** out of Japan-seal, causing him to surrender.

#53 to #50 - amuzen (09/22/2015) [-]

I disagree, that's a huge over simplification of war. It's the same general type of thing sure but comparing an elephant seals vie for dominance with something like world war 2 is like comparing a childs first lego building to the empire state building.

#54 to #53 - scruffyguy (09/22/2015) [-]

Japan wanted land and the resources that come with it. Some of that land America already had. Japan attacked America to obtain its land. America was stronger and defeated Japan. Japan didnt obtain the land it wanted.
Replace "land" with "females" and it's identical to elephant seals.

#143 to #54 - alfrsa (10/03/2015) [-]

Japan didn't want American territory. It wanted to assert its dominance of the Pacific and figured the best way to do so was to ally with the Axis which, coincidentally, had much less interest in competing with Japan.

#64 to #54 - anon (09/22/2015) [-]

So basically anything that involves wanting a thing and fighting for it = war... I think it's kindof a stretch too. Especially considering that countries don't want things like individual animals. Animals are made to reproduce and are internally incentivized to do so. Countries don't 'want' any single thing unless they are totalitarian and there are a ridiculous amount of forces that pull and push any one country toward certain decisions. War is not as simple as you make it. Japan is closer to an elephant seal than america imo tho.

I'm just gonna say, nobody should hold a current country's populous accountable for **** that their ancestors did. Britain, The US, Canada, Turkey, Germany, Russia, France, Korea, Japan, they all have dark spots in their history.

Korea hating the Japanese has to do with a lot of other **** anyways. These days, their hate for one another isn't really much more than the general "hate" that persists between Asian countries in general. It didn't stop Japan and Korea from sharing the 2002 World Cup host, nor has it stopped Japanese games from becoming popular in Korea or Korean TV and pop culture from becoming popular in Japan.

worth mentioning that russian defeat in that war significantly lowered russia's lower classes morale and trust in the tsar, wich lead to revolution of 1905 wich also lead us to october revolution and born of soviet union.
that war also caused series of little conflicts on russian(soviet union)- japanese sphere of influence border that lasted for the next 40 years. pic related: soviet troops inspecting destroyed japanese ha-go tank after battle of khalkhin gol in september 1939.

#69 to #19 - anon (09/22/2015) [-]

It was also a war that proved that European powers weren't untouchable and that Japan could maintain ambitions of carving out a segment of Asia for themselves and kick out the Europeans. An attitude that ended up having some serious consequences.

Piss off weeaboos? What do they have to do with Japan, where my ancestors came from?
But seriously, I'm getting a kind of anti-Japanese tone from this, as well as from the comments (e.g. using the term "Japs"). It seems to me that all this recent anti-Japanese stuff is coming from weeaboos pissing off everyone. They don't even represent us, so I don't know why people make that connection. I'm Japanese (if you haven't figured that out) and I heavily dislike weeaboos.

I hope all of you do realize, there were many Japanese that fought for the US. Even after being incarcerated, they still wanted to protect America. They had to fight just to be allowed to fight for the US. Facing overwhelming hatred toward Japanese; that didn't matter to them. They still wanted to protect the US, a nation they call home.

As I said in another post, I don't blame anyone for the deeds of their ancestors and the people who shared that person's nationality from generations ago. If I did, I'd be blaming literally every ******* person I met for some horrible **** .

#134 to #121 - hapasan (09/22/2015) [-]

It wasn't directed solely at you, more at the combined comments I've seen.
However, I know you don't blame descendants for what their ancestors did. That I understand.
It is mainly all the negativity faced towards Japanese I've seen in the post and comments (e.g. using terms like "Japs"). And I know people who say this aren't trolls, they are people who genuinely feel that way. I'm a Sansei myself, so I can't help but be bothered by that. However, I'm 100% for free speech, so I don't tell people what to say.
But like I said before, I think all this anti-Japanese stuff stems from hatred towards weeaboos. All I can say to that is, "I can't stand them. Most Japanese I know can't stand them."

They're dead. There's nothing we can do to change that. It sucks but i'm just being an awful person in saying that. It wasn't meant to belittle, but I guess I'm just tired of reading up numbers of dead and wounded. It just seems that it's all statistics instead of actual people so I say things to cope with it I guess .I don't know.

#47 to #46 - captainprincess (09/21/2015) [-]

The gulf war? The one between the UK and argentina?
idk if it has much naval battling, I'm not much of a war/history buff

I'd suggest the winter war because Im a fin and we never shut up about it but I think that was a completely landlocked battle

Plus it's been covered enough here as well as elsewhere

#52 to #47 - chuchiereaper [OP]ONLINE (09/22/2015) [-]

already did gulf war will do falklands

#114 to #40 - nightmarexnxnxnxnx (09/22/2015) [-]

They were soldiers. When you don that uniform, you accept the fact that you may die tomorrow along with it. It was glorious, as in thousands of men fighting fiercely for the greater good of their nation.

Any battle in human history with causalities is arguably a tragedy, but that doesn't change the fact those people fought bravely for what they believed in.

So yeah it was glorious.

#115 to #114 - captainprincess (09/22/2015) [-]

#100 to #77 - heretics (09/22/2015) [-]

At the time they were not worse than other colonial/imperialist powers. During the Russo-Japanese war around 20 000 Chinese civilians were killed, mostly from being caught in the cross fire from both sides. In fact the Japanese victory raised the confidence of colonialized or subdued peoples in Asia. “We regarded that Russian defeat by Japan as the defeat of the West by the East. We regarded the Japanese victory as our own victory,” said Sun Yat-sen, founder of the Republic of China. It was when the military started taking power over the civil government in the 30's that militarisation of the Japanese society intensified and they started conducting more atrocious warfare. During the Russo-Japanese war there was still some respect between the combatants as the artist express in this print. Russian POW were cared for and not abused like in WW2.

#68 - anon (09/22/2015) [-]

Also partially responsible for the doctrine that led to Pearl Harbor.

Japan's doctrine was pretty ******* short (bothering with war crimes would have added, like, TWO PAGES and then who would read it anyway)
1. Surprise attack, hopefully weakening the enemy (worked every time for 80 years preceding WWII, leading to victory over China [largest country] and Russia [considered a western power technologically then] which sort of explains why they were willing to go for it against the US)
2. Decisive battle. This is where **** broke down in WWII, because the Japs were waiting for a decisive battle against the US and the US was refusing to give them one. Japan lost control of Okinawa (which they considered a win since they didn't even consider Okinawans Japanese so who gives a **** bout deaths and American morale was damaged) but was totally willing to keep setting up bloodbaths again and again until they saw "the chance" as it were. Enter: atomic weapons. Exit: Japanese military doctrine.
3. Peace agreement without complete conquest. Yeah Japan wasn't really hyped about the idea of actually drawing-out their wars and taking over territory piece-by-piece. Following the surprise attack and decisive battle, typically they could get whatever they wanted out of their very weakened foe regardless. I don't really have a joke on this one, I just had to include it because otherwise I'd be ignoring 1/3 of a 3-step military strategy that worked on an international stage for nearly a century straight.
