Back in the 80s a friend’s grandmother walked up to a young Japanese couple in the supermarket, strangers of course, and told them she finally forgave them for Pearl Harbor.

I know of some Korean families who have not forgiven Japan.

Horror comics emerged as a distinct comic book genre after World War II when young adult males lost interest in caped crimebusters, and returning GIs wanted titillating sex and violence in their reading.

You forgive Japan, next you will have people demanding we normalize relations with the Duchy of Grand Fenwick. 

I was almost over it, but my trip to Thailand kind of stirred up the angst.  That was the first time I was in a country that the Japanese actually invaded. 

Piss on Anime. Wax off.

I had an awesome amount of respect for Hiroo Onoda though.

I have respect for Norio Suzuki.
he found a wild panda, spotted a yeti, AND gave Onoda the latest news.

@GravitySucks --On a serious musical note-- Meiko Kaji is one of my favorite singers.
Today, I am listening to Meiko Kaji's album "Zenkyokusyu."  Meiko Kaji's voice is beautiful and emotionally engaging.  I don't speak Japanese and have NO idea what each song is about. But that does not bother me.
I have been told that only old Japanese men listen to Meiko Kaji, as they are crying into their sake.

This wasn’t quite what I expected, especially after reading the English translation in the description but it’s interesting. Kind of jazzy/bluesy.

Thanks @FISH

I can picture old men crying at this one.

Awkward.  I wish I was a fly on the wall though.

As I am cleaning and packing up my past. My nephew stopped over to help me. He noticed my DVD movie of “Lady Snowblood.” I asked him if he wanted it. YES. He does want to see this movie.
I have way too many DVDs of Japanese movies. Thank for the YouTube video of “Meiko Kaji - Urami Bushi” (Translation in the description) and "LadySnowblood." This is the first time I have read the words to this song. It kind of fits how I am doing these days. Thanks @GravitySucks .

PS/ do you listen to songs in different languages? Without understanding what the song is about?

Awkward? Maybe not. The young Japanese couple may have accepted the forgiveness. 
Take a ride on a train in Japan. See if a senior hits the bottom of your legs with their umbrella. The seniors remember the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
