“Pearl Harbor: The Rising of the Imperial Sun” - Gacha Prologue Mini-Movie | WW2; PACIFIC WAR - 1941

AIR RAID. PEARL HARBOR. THIS IS NO DRILL.

That’s right, one of the notably requested events has finally come into fruition. With that, since three years, the Americans are finally back in action and will return again in the following actual mini-movie that will cover the Guadalcanal Campaign of the Second World War.

I hope you all enjoyed AND . . .

December 7, 1941 -
“ . . . a date which they will live in infamy: after the war with China erupted; after the events of “Shanghai, 1937,” the war against the Western powers, most notably the United Kingdom and its colonies (who had been at war with Germany for two years), has been inevitable since they sanctioned Japan from gaining resources, such as oil, in their efforts to quell the Japanese aggression and their power to fight the Chinese. Japan also gained oil from the United States, a neutral nation during the ongoing war, to which the latter instilled the embargo to the former. Because of that, they had to go to war against the Western powers outside of China, setting their eyes across Southeast Asia, especially the Dutch East Indies: the Dutch colony with rich resources. The Japanese may have been against the idea of going to war against the United States as they had little to no way to win it, but because of the likely attack against the shipping lane from the Dutch Indies—as they deliver the resources all the way back to Japan—across the Philippine Sea from the nearby American colony, the Philippine Islands, they had no choice so the Americans are included on the enemy list with an opportunity to capture the colony as well which, first of all, lead to the idea of destroying the Pacific Fleet stationed on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii to prevent reinforcements.

Even without Hitler and the Nazis, the war after all was inevitable. For eight months since the Attack on Pearl Harbor, Japan conquered Asia and the Pacific Ocean. Then by the end of it, their strings of victories had been dwindling down since the Battles of Coral Sea and Midway. Downfall is soon imminent . . . with the might of the United States Marines, a Corps of “blood thirsty soldiers recruited from jails and asylums” who had just landed on the Solomon island of Guadalcanal.”

Thank you all,
