We have awakened a sleeping giant
and filled her with a terrible resolve.
These words supposedly belong to Admiral Yamamoto, head of the Japanese Navy in World War Two. It seems fitting then that 68 years after he attacked US forces at Pearl Harbor, the eUS will attack Kyushu, the site of Japan's Naval forces in that war. Even more fitting is a quote directly attributed to him.
"I can run wild for six months … after that, I have no expectation of success"
It was six months ago that we region swapped with Indonesia, under duress of invasion, to allow PEACE (Now Phoenix) to invade the United States. And now we face a reversal of fortune in a World War Japan did not want, did not support, and did not fight in. Some in the US say that this is our punishment for the choice we made. But I know that most in the eUS do not believe that. It is words they say to fire up their population, but in their hearts they know that Japan is as much a victim as the US.
Still, as we now face the hammer that has been hanging over our heads for the past 6 months, we must stand firm. Japan is a proud nation, filled with proud people who do not back down from confrontation. We will stand with our true allies in PEACE in an attempt to safeguard Japan. We may fall, and we may lose, but our spirit will continue undiminished. I say now, we will not retreat, we will not waver, we will not relent while Japan is under attack!
Let us hold no rage in our hearts tomorrow, only the pure, cool, distilled will to see our cause succeed. Heaven shall bear witness to the righteousness of our struggle and shall award victory justly. So long as our Righteous Nation principles and Bushido guide us we cannot fail in doing right in this world.
In short. "We must not again underestimate the Japanese." - Admiral Chester W. Nimitz

We will ride Godzilla to victory!
I see coincidence in that not only is tomorrow the 7th, but it is also 6 months since the initial passing of Indonesia. Odd irony, but my respect goes to you President Dokomo.

In all seriousness though, just push retreat.
You can't handle the beautiful faces of our male leads.
VICTORY SHALL BE OURS.

Oh noez! Josh Hartnett!!! Everyone knows Godzilla can't defeat Josh Hartnett!!!one!!!1!!!one!!!
"Look Dokomo, I’m really afraid for you. Imma Let you finish. But Pearl Harbour is the greatest movie of all time."
I am quite sure Godzilla tried to DESTROY Tokyo, not help it.
AWESOME! U.S ALL THE WAY TO TOKYO!
TEN THOUSAND YEARS FOR KOKAWA!
// Japan is a proud nation, filled with proud people who do not back down from confrontation. //
I lol'd.
What happened with Indo 6 months ago?
With our righteous resolve, we will prevail.
Guess what, things change.
@chewchewshoe: Never seen Godzilla vs Mothra?
While I was eBorn in Japan, I am now an eUS citizen. I do sympathize with you guys and I wish you the best of luck, but let's have fun with this. A war with a nation like the eUS could really boost Japan's population and activity if you play your cards right and benefit you in the long run. You've got the (somewhat) unfortunate role of being our gateway to Asia, but make the most of it.
See you guys on the battlefield.
Domoko, why don't you tell your people about the various diplomatic efforts made over several months. Tell them what was offered and how you refused. We did not intend to come as invaders. We are all bound by the game mechanics. Retreat the battle and you know we will be on our way. Fight us and we will take everything from you that we can.
ANY MOTHAF- WHO CROSSES 'DIS LINE HERE HAS TO DEAL WITH ME.
Oh shi-
You've awakened the Drago.
I appreciate the offer Harlot, but we must all make a stand at some point.
Plus, the people are well aware of what was offered, and they said, "Never again!" with regards to Kyushu. While personally I think this every situation should be considered on its own merits rather than just blindly saying no based on what happened six months ago, the point is that the decision was made and we will all stand by it regardless of our personal beliefs.
You just need a russian-serbian-hun-indonesian MPP, and US is stoped at your border. even two of these is enough against them, one may be not, because of EMC, but two of these countries have enough power to stop the US plus EMC.
Japanese people Serbia stands with you, we both our proud nations and we will kick those american cowards back if they dare to come!
Long live Japan!
Long live Serbia!
Banzai
So NOW you make a stand?
Yes, we are different people. In fact I wasnt even living in Japan when they bowed to Indo. I was a Congressman in North Korea, so I think I know a little bit about taking a stand.
I stand with eJapan. I'm on my way. >
Tora tora tora!
"So NOW you make a stand?"
I was also a congressman in NK before moving to Japan after the invasion. We never backed down to a fight.
The thing is it doesn't matter if you get mpp's cause you cant get them in time for the Kyushu battle and that is all we need to push into Asia.
>So NOW you make a stand?
I wasn't born the last time Japan was offered this choice.
I knew we should have invaded Hawaii
We will fight to protect our homeland.
"filled with proud people who do not back down from confrontation." really? then why is everyone whining that Indo made Japan its punk?
See above comment
ummm what o_O? From the way your article is written it sounds like you think the US is going to try and conquer Japan. This is not the case. We are merely using you to get to Asia so we can liberate China.
I'm pretty sure that at some point in time there were negotiations between Japan and US for a peaceful land swap, but you guys declined or something. idk.
We could not have a more respectable opponent.
Though, I must join my fellow eAmericans in asking you to see reason and retreat the battle. We want what you want-- freedom in Asia, away from imperialism, with all regions returning to their original owners. You sent your military to try defend China from Russian aggression, and now we send ours to liberate the Chinese and others from this tyranny. Just let us pass through and then reclaim your territory back once we've been able to move our forces onto the mainland; retreating will save us all time and resources and allow us to more quickly liberate Asia. See reason.
I see trolls, like, everywhere. Kinda scarry.
Would eAmericans swap land if the situations were reversed?
Doubtful... see you Yanks on the battlefield.
fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck
I NEED SOMEONE TO SIT MY PARTY PRESIDENCY HERE SO THAT I CAN COME AND FIGHT ;_;
Looks like we'll have to awaken Godzilla! That or some kind of tentacle monster
"You just need a russian-serbian-hun-indonesian MPP, and US is stoped at your border. even two of these is enough against them, one may be not, because of EMC, but two of these countries have enough power to stop the US plus EMC."
We already have Hungarian and Serbian MPP's coming down the pipe. Looks like this one will be quite interesting...

We will protect Japan, from the aggression of the US. Our alliance will be prosperous. US and Eden will not break through. Long live Japan, long live Phoenix!
SERBIAN ARMY (VES) IS KOMMING!
The sleeping giant analogy is apt, and was the focus of my article when I published on this matter.
But now is the time to fight and defend!
"guess what things change"
What happened with Indonesia's invasion of Malaysia 2 weeks ago?
Godzilla ! Japan Banzai !
"A war with a nation like the eUS could really boost Japan's population and activity if you play your cards right and benefit you in the long run." I was thinking the same thing we do absolutely need more population here our nation is tiny compared to theirs but... nonetheless I will fight on just because I like seeing that cool +22 next to my name lawl.
GO GO Japan
Long live Japan!
Long live Iran!
Long live Serbia!
