>>35271700>They still believe in hitting each other with swords and honor and soul and all that retarded shitMy dude, they started cannibalizing Indonesians, had contests with eachother over who could decapitate the most Chinese, had schoolkids fly planes into aircraft carriers, and attemted to emulate western collonialism wherever they landed. There was nothing honorable about it.
I agree that a lot of the early Super Robot genre was a delusional attempt by them to sell themselves a myth - although I do enjoy a lot of that shit - but no, they adapted fine to warfare before they got hit with two atom bombs and McCarthy had them politically castrated for their own good.
