and we on cover manga and anime a series from japan that glorify the military and the weapons of the 2nd world war . how wide spread is militarism and japanese manga do such mango pose a danger? the . this is what the hell of a world of manga usually looks like. what could i did by cute so, so i turn those in funny questions. the illustrated stories followed adventure, fantasy and friendship. a weapons. festus and not see worship. they don't exist here. the put simply will of glorifying mind go all emotional fringe phenomena, jim and publishers scrutinize critically and do not to introduce any examples of it on to the european market.

the arm of the heart, given some bizarre productions, never the less makes the leap from the japanese market into the wide world. that's also the case with a successful production goes and print. so it's been a long running hit on streaming services in europe. the intimate and manga series has been around since 2012 goes at a boarding school compete against each other in tank driving. it's been a major success in japan for years, with a mixture that fits into the co japanese social discourse and is easily marketed. and that's difficult with an emission to a month, but they've tried to create what i would describe as a mixture of 3 things that i think sell well in japan, i'm as one is the military aspect i. e plane war. let me say this in general terms out for them also against the background of the fact that the military in general is currently being promoted by the state in japan for 5 tick filled with the japan

. does it pass this country according to its constitution? it also invests billions in weapon systems for defense, re, i'm a month, it has to be in the content. so it's a political issue for years. since i don't work, let's as good for call. what? well, what is successful is then okay in japan, so to speak, and that is of course, a very big problem. this is not to lose and guns, guns cause complaint. but where does this uncritical affinity for the ministry in japan come from the can. japan reading manga is parts of everyday life. 9 gives the medium, with equal states, us along side books, and film, manga read by people of all ages. so our mind games, it goes, boys, adults, and seniors. but was this the infatuation, even of things was not see cold in nice manga come from

to understand it, you have to dig deep into the collective memory and look at history. the japanese past the nation with germany and everything german goes back a long way more than 150 years. in 1968, the minds the restoration named for then and per my g began to fall reaching a peebles scholars was sent abroad in western teachers were brought in, especially from prussia. this is for all i'm feeling this and job hard to remember that when japan was modernized during the menu restoration, it was looking for the best of everything worldwide. so who are the best in new medicine and see who are the best in law spectrum down for the best in the military? well, that's the best and the best. a military at that time was the prussian military and nothing happened to who was old prussian experts were brought to japan to advise on modernizing the military, going to cast author into by way of the military was organized. it's now dissolute . of all sorts of things. it's very german oriented, honest new,

even the military music is very german oriented. would it take me to come? was because of the i'm, i'm type spent in parent orient, you pressure became a role model in terms of wolf. uh, the idea of the perfect military was shaped by germany from the very beginning the japan wage numerous was on the empress a row. he told the 2nd sino japanese which broke out on july 7th. 1967 is considered the beginning of the pacific war japan and germany became allies, the german dictator, hitler, japanese emperor, a hero, he 2 and the italian ruler most certainly joined forces unto the tripartite pact. the unannounced time for the japanese empire on the us naval base at po hava. on december 7th, 1941 marked the beginning of world war 2 in the pacific. the us responded by

declaring war on japan. this will came to an end when the us designated to atomic bombs above the japanese cities of hiroshima and nagasaki. in august 1945, are you gonna be more than 200000 people are estimated to have died? on september, the 2nd 1945, japan declared. it's unconditional surrender. japan has today surrendered. as the last of our enemies is laid low to fate, to japan was forced to adopt a peace constitution prohibiting the country from white to go and maintaining on forces for self defense. within santa fe, i feel it. and you may have to realize that there were a lot of young people who played with more toys the time during the war and took me

to tons of youth and who were simply militarized and systematically because it was in the interests of state to that. i'm got something you missed so it doesn't work like a light switch off for you just like press it and, and you'll switch from a militaristic society instead for the past that this one looks cuz that's after the 90 feet is because the post war and the 1950 depend, like germany experienced an economic food in just a few decades. japan became a high tech nation. although it was constitutionally past the 1st weapons and weapons technology was still very popular in society, including german weapons technology, the most popular children's toy of the time. what model kits of german tanks and weapons also appeared in may and got kind of different and that sort of slides like you see the fascination on 2 sides of the reader side on the one hand or 2 and the authors side on the other. my god could size and there are people who have written manga who were themselves, whom about nice,

very small soldiers and the 2nd world war kind of put the ottoman for one of the best known is, needs. okie. she get a little bit kindest and this is who also drew and produced, a manga called hitler hip la mancha, could size not put it to the office, mid suki chicago, who drew emerald hitler's biography in the 1970s. as a manga for adults, he had experienced the horrors of war caused tend as a soldier and throughout his career to make the authors to post all those who glorified rule. one of the full fathers of bank the officers to zuka oh, samo, also sharply criticized. not see audiology. he drew the manga crime series out of a good test. the saturated fictional fella, based on the premise, the titles hitler had secret to jewish ancestry. the childcare, young japanese people do this, openly flaunting, the nazi ascetic,

ignorant of the unimaginable atrocities committed by those who wore these uniforms . what is the least girl's thing to these uniforms? they're kind of sexy and i'm not really interested in the, in human ideology behind them. and they turned into it and just been around for a long time as little as an ongoing discussion in japan would this fascination with militarism. that's what it's and you have to say of course that the japanese have a completely different relationship to the history of the holocaust and the germans do appreciate the total cost i see as those get yeah, there are no concentration come from japan that you can visit us month is when you come. in other words, unlike us, there's no obligation to see it with your own eyes. just miss ivan over honest with you. apparently the not css is more fascinating in countries that did not suffer under the nazis. according to researches and other aspect is that japan was an aggressor in world war 2. but likes to point to the even was bad guys to nazis,

possibly to divert attention from its own guilt. the way in which understandings of history in japan and germany defy and does not critically scrutinize can be seen beyond nice products, a knife approach to the difficult historical facts even appears in a successful world wide series. some manga, and i'm a best seller, a tech on site, and has been going strong for over 10 years. for seasons and $99.00 episodes is a fictional post apocalyptic course story. few minutes, he is frightened. bike can take many things humanoids cold tysons. this service also draws inspiration from german, that type of song, these huff, german half japanese. the protagonist is named aaron giga, jacob, being the jun good for hunter. and the template for the medieval town is the bavarian town of nursing. and what is explosive is that the story is also being

criticized, is the way the critics in particular accusing the estimate of providing space for an explanation and anti semitic conspiracy theories. the blank scroll through the news though i spelled b as in a group that is imprisoned in this village. they used to be the rulers of this world. and faith and my uncle give us later in the main, but it's revealed that this ethnic group was originally the rules are funded the house up and then they were oppressed, the marginalized and exploited as water for these type us. what's up with you the to tom and the old boy, they're depicted with a bracelet with a star on it is, but i'm back with understand. oh so it's not too far fetched to argue that this ethnic group is a reference to the jews. and the 3rd rice t on the flex cooper. i know i've been and if you consider that this ethnic group was originally the ruler of the world, 50, the flex global or something, it's not a far leap to say that it's okay. that reminds me of anti submitted conspiracy

theories according to which the jews would rule us all the house and brutal. the marketing for the show showed literally the sensitivity for the controversial aspects of bands was set to be launched as merchandise in 2021. off to an outcry, including from the fan base, the items with quickly withdrawn but finds, defend the series. they say the allocation that it has nationalistic, under tons, misses the complexity of keeping that attack on tight and criticized as fast you structures racism and propaganda. they say the series opposes historical revisionism and violence that different positions are expressed. and that's, it is a repeat because the emphasized, the most trust is inherent in every human being. not just an ethnic groups just by the controversy. the other a series has broken, streaming records, influence, pop culture and sparked discussion for 10 years. this may also be due to the fact

that it leaves room for interpretation, rather than providing simple explanations. a characteristic of almost or manga is a global. and yeah, i think it is more of an opportunity to discover new stories and take more new ways of looking at the world. so in think you have to really critical by all means that you shouldn't demonize at all. now on the plane guys destroying our society. now we that's nonsense. across the fascination with the ministry is marginal and the monkey light and fantastical, make up 99 percent of manga. historical references can never be clearly interpreted, but i'm big us and stimulating. most estimate and manga series, last 4 decades of audiences grow with them. for the mostly young manga community is interesting for advertises, how to the experts feel about the things with content. how do they assess the

audience and the ability to judge many, to when you form military uniforms tanks, robots, military bases are a huge topic in the world of manga anatomy, both stylistically anesthetic, late ad on them. but if you take a closer look, you'll notice that the genres that especially use these codes in particular are actually critical of the military. and these things are often more differentiated. then you might think from the outside because it's just drawn. it's just a cartoon. and it's just animation that much and, but that's nice. it's exactly the opposite. it's exceptionally the texas total of teeth cleaned as it is name is. so i actually use the defendant is very open minded, which one very progressive 6 pull to see if i use. and that's why i think this critical view is present. otherwise, we wouldn't be discussing the series wouldn't be always to, but it's very difficult to use. the subculture is a growth from market with great potential, no longer just a fringe phenomenon. that matt,

the market we are dedicated to as a company is currently worth $250000000000.00 us dollars. type these fast spice that for this me. yeah. the rest of the tone un works. so one of the jimmy's biggest advertises striking deals with major brands impact the costs responses. he's identified a key factor in the boom that's causing the industry to grow. constantly nice, nice, most anime and manga tell the story of the under dogs. if you have to fight your way up through hard training diligence, ambition and will power to be the most successful manga anatomy are always like that, i can see most of the journey is the destination. that sort of thing that you mentioned was kind of gives young people courage to get in because they say, if you believe in yourself and work hard, then you'll make it hot on the i back numbers to shuffle. the,

the themes in mind go to like the some break to booze with renovation, but also ignorance. even if a critical look at some serious is necessary. one of the main characteristics of manga remains the complexity onto our 2nd topic. healing with whom we often see meets and misunderstandings about the well known alternative feeling method. pull me off with the is it the biggest scam all time or the only real medicine or bitter debates about it here in germany? homeopathic remedies, or even available as a prescription from doctors or alternative practitioners. several 100000000 euros are spent on globules in the like in germany alone. it's a big business more than half of german, so tried them. but skepticism from critics is growing. we've shelven to the history of home me opportunity because it was actually invented in germany from here a conquered many regions of the world. the stainless globules,

these harmless little pellets are supposed to be the healers or are they just sugar balls? the answer from assigned to the point of view is pretty clear. most of these viewers are basically so the, the, the effect of the white palette is controversial. let's take a look at the manufacturing process. it is hardly changed in the last 200 years on the off of the follows the principle of dilution. the more diluted, the better a so called mother tincture is created from a starting substance. it can even be based on poisonous plants such as belladonna. and this basic substances gradually diluted further and further. homeopath call this point in time zation. one part of the original thing is attenuated by 9 pounds of a water alcohol next year. and this is shaken up sort of a 10 times by typing the container against the banks. then one part of this has taken and mixed with 9 parts water in oklahoma and taken up and so on and so forth

. after a great deal of potentially, i think the result is a bit like the proverbial drop in the ocean. it's virtually impossible to detect even a single molecule of the original tension anymore. for 200 years home real pops have believed that the more dilute the substance, the greater the healing power. the shaking process is intended to charge the remedy with energy to this day. this is still done by hand. and the final manufacturing step, the solution is stripped or sprayed onto the sugar globules in germany. for example, according to the e u directive la meals with a high diluted active ingredient, do not have to be approved. they only need to be registered. no proof of advocacy is required for this sounds more like facebook science. this is exactly what is being criticized and the regulations for homeopathic remedies are much less strict worldwide then for regular medicines. different paper manufactured home is that the formulation differently and it just floods the market. somebody who's lucky enough

made just the end of it. it's impression of early as part of treatment, but somebody who is unlucky can actually get up fully prepared. so the formulation bits, may i have some math do included, that can be hard for me or in a country like germany known for its level of rules, regulations seem to be less important in the practice of homeopathy. how does this come about? let's go back to the very beginning. the founder of homeopathy is a german doctor, samo honda mine. she was born and my son in 1755 and studied medicine in leipzig after his studies. he struggled to earn enough money for himself and his family and worked mainly as a rider and translator. and he made himself unpopular with his colleagues with hurtful dire tribes and insults. some of his anger was directed up what he saw as the brutality of the medicine practiced in the 18th century. methods such as blood loading were common knowledge of the human body was limited. toxic substances such as arsenic and mercury were administered in large quantities. the treatments often did more harm than good. the world is ready for gentler alternatives and samo him

on seems to have found them. his aha moment came when he read about some china bark as a remedy for malaria. hunt him on dare to try it himself. taking the bark and actually developing malaria like symptoms he's done develop the so called the principle of similar switch homeopathic is still adhere to today. and basically what basically is that if a substance produces a particular deceased and up in a person, the same substance given in a very i thought i use that form can actually cure the same disease in the course of that is one of the basic made up considerably but these like yours, like which has no scientific explanation to it. it's basically magical thinking. and that brings us directly to the next point, which the bottom line is that when we all because he does not work beyond the placebo effect in house, the most people accusation is as old as who me office. he itself, even one and mine was called the clock by other doctors,

but the conflict between conventional doctors and alternative killers ultimately leads to an advance and medical research. the earliest double blind studies is carried out. this means that trial participants are randomly assigned to receive. i, their homeopathic preparations, or placebo snyder, the participants, nor the researchers know who is getting which the test results sobering. there is no reliable evidence for the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies, but if you firmly believe in the effect, you don't need any proof. of course, that was the case back then and is still the case nearly 200 years later. never the less patients swear that they feel better and not really can be the case. and many studies researchers attribute possible therapeutic success to the placebo effect. and then there was something else, the age, old mistrust of conventional medicine. the impersonal nature of large medical institutions can fuel colder than alternative practitioners. i mean, it is to not more than that time. it's not the specifically effective drug therapy . he did not medicine in the end, the other something interpersonal process,

perhaps almost psychological. what else do you feel? you're in good hands. someone takes time for you and then i text you seriously as a person, as an individual. yeah. and yes, of course, that also has an effect that is incredibly important. but that alone is no substitute for really effective met. if somebody be getting a persistent meant, is that a hill to children and animals prove homeopathic effectiveness? the argument of home me off as he advocates is that animals in children don't even know how they are being treated so they don't have expectations about treatment. so there must be more to it than just the placebo effect. right? this is even also does. it is also the case that children and animals often have a very, very good and well functioning immune system. concord illnesses can flare of famine . the builder comes benjamin. i see this of my children now too who somehow lay around with a high temperature one day in a jump around the next day, super heavy things i used to think. wow, of course, that was because of the globe goals i gave them. and now i see that it was either

their immune system in their ability to heal themselves or the, or the natural course of illness fun. kaiden. germany is the birthplace of homeopathy. but it's recognition and integration into health care systems very globally in some countries. how many off a day is more widely accepted and even part of the national health care systems, germany recognize the export potential of homeopathy. madison's early on shop, if, for example, entered large scale industrial production at the end of the 19th century and quickly developed into the world's leading company for homeopathic products. the products are exported to almost every country. india is currently the country with the highest number of homeopathic practitioners and users worldwide home. it. but he was actually brought in from the west by the missionaries as part of the, you know, the organization. and all that for us is the type of long on back part of that process of colonization was a social and educational reform implemented by the british in 18. 35, it prioritized english language education and western approaches over indigenous

knowledge. disaffected, traditional medical systems like all your better holistic practice. more than 3000 years old, british authorities considered in western medicine superior. and he also helped to push the popularity of home the office he in india. the maharaja is click by illnesses that are considered incurable at the time. finally, she hires a european personal physician who experiments with homeopathic remedies to maharajah seal of approval is of course good for the image of home me office the. this is comparable to the situation in india today who maybe actually type sensitive lives you because it's, it's actually funded by the government. it's docked in government colleges that are people feel that, you know, it's a, it's the legs are legitimate factors. then the ford play for the government themselves up to blame for promoting sex. i'm sending it back to this because they can't keep the proper mitigation already to get to the 4th country in a, in a systematic manner. i think this is the reason by home. it, but the is very powerful and influential in uh in india, your necklace,

the good hospitals, and really your likes, basically good hospitals and get a lot. but you'll see that that nobody wants but those like that and be hot or, you know, with the police and things looks at places like that. so in those gaps, these are the need because of the black you snow is actually coming, the natural and gentle, the perfect alternative to regular medication and it goes all without the severe side effects. this has always been promised to me office the users tell me about the use not without side effects. the active ingredient is extremely diluted. how harmful can not be. it seems to be relatively harmless, and in most cases it is. but there are exceptions that should be mentioned that other side effects opponent, but the bad people have the sudden cardiac, honest heart related complications because it contains active hubs, which can stop the heart that i've only put the combinations because look to see bill allergic reactions and i, for lex as a patients have bought a new sock and even if you're tolerate the medication, well, there could be

a bigger problem applies to you, but i'm familiar with help me out. but the, because of a cold or because of a headache or a stomach ache, especially, and children on that. you think now if i use this, that will go away. expect. yeah, but it probably would have gone away on its own order because of the receiver with i made it easier to way took them off that, but then you take it for more serious illnesses, perhaps for pneumonia or bacterial suicide is loud and into them. and when you're dealing with perhaps, or a severe depression, which of this is when it really gets critical and there should be on the policy on the money met surrounding home the office. they are deeply rooted in history. and the debate over is the fact of mass and will continue. that's it from us again. we hope you enjoy to stay tuned, and we'll be back next week with more exciting topics until then by, by the,
