The fact that the video is precisely 19:46 minutes long deserves praising

In reality, during the planning stages for Operation Downfall, it was estimated that the invasion and the subsequent campaign to pacify Japanese resistance would not only prolong the war at least another year or two, but that Allied casualties would run up to or in excess of one million. The U.S began mass producing purple heart medals in preparation, making half a million by the time the invasion was cancelled after the two atomic bombs. Those medals have been used in every American military conflict since then and even today the Downfall stockpile has not been fully used up yet.

6:57 here is a Japanese soldier who has too much patriotism

6:57 My favorite part

Idk what's scarier; the fact that over 1 million allied casualities were expected from Operation Downfall...or that those estimates were probably grossly underestimated and mainland defense would've been a whole lot more ferocious than Allied planners would acknowledge, or even knew about

珍しい兵器が沢山出てくるね 0:51 タイガー戦車 4:21 海軍の短12糎自走砲 8:34 試製四式七糎噴進砲 9:34 試製一型短機関銃 14:07 試作五式砲戦車　ホリ 14:41 超重戦車　オイ

16:21 god damn thats some serious torque on that tank.

昭和20年当時、小学生だった私の父親は「学校に行けば、授業なんかそっちのけで、爆薬を抱えて米軍戦車の腹の下に飛び込む訓練ばかりだった。教師は『必ず戦車１台は道連れにしろ。それまでは敵の弾に蜂の巣にされても死んではいかん！』とか無茶苦茶を言ってたな」と、時々語ってました。この動画で戦っているのは大人ばかりですが、実際に本土決戦が起きたなら、歴史上最も悲惨な地獄絵図が繰り広げられた事でしょう。

I did not expect this video to be uploaded so soon. I am going to enjoy watching this

The casualty rate was predictably high for the GIs. Cannot understand the absence of waves of USAAF bombers which could easily ID then DEMOLISH all lines of trenches, MGs and artillery . What happened?? The Tiger replica was accurate: Germany freely donated plans for the heavy tank to Japan years earlier. Otherwise episode was well done!

18:17 man's shoulder must've been roasted as hell

Two ideas! 1st: fall of Singapore 1946 - British forces retake the island (seen Centurion Mk. I in the Pacific :3) 2nd: alternative Vietnam War - US attacking Hanoi

Well done! Bravo! Standing ovation! Pretty much what the Downfall planners expected. The Japanese fighting for every street, house, shack trying to kill as many invaders. The Imperial Guard dying to the last man at the Palace was my personal favorite.

Now this is why I come here, to watch scenarios that never happened be visualized in cinematic battle.

I would honestly love and think it'd be amazing if we got an Alternative History game that takes place in a WW2 setting with America invading Japan. Nations like Britain and France won't commit to troop support but will provide air and naval support. Meanwhile the game takes you from J-Day or something. The biggest Naval invasion in history. All USS Iowa Battleships are there, the plane is black with B-29's and CV Aircraft. The Ocean is littered with Troop transports. Maybe since it's an AU setting the Yamato battleships are still alive and some minor ships in port. Depending on how far you want to go. Have the Super Yamato Battleships with their even bigger cannons. But the sheer spectacle of such a large invasion. The rest of the game takes place as Japan is slowly turned from the peaceful and traditional look of Japan, to all out warfare. I think the thing that could be even better, is if it had a two campaigns. One as the U.S, while the other as Japan. Something even cooler could be if your decisions mattered. So as the U.S. You could achieve total victory through hard military campaigns. Eventually America creates more Nuclear Bombs and even uses Japan as a testing ground for their new Nukes. You eventually get a land with little to no crop growth, water is scarce, and bandits and factions start forming, kind of like the old Japanese Warlords. Every faction despises the U.S, even more so if you ended up killing the Emperor. Leading to fanatical civilians and infighting. U.S overtime would withdraw forces, but keep small amount of Soldiers in certain areas. The other scenario is that Japan is not going down, and there is a constant tug-of-war between gaining ground and loosing it. But a conditional surrender will happen, where Japan loses all of it's colonies. Even Okinawa, even if they themselves don't want to. But Mainland Japan will stay intact, but Japan's military will be rearmed to fight Russia, tying in with Britain's Operation Unthinkable. Where Germany was to be rearmed to fight against Russia. I know the ideas might not be great, but I just love the idea of being able to get an AU game like that. Whether it be something like a strategy game or FPS I don't know.

11:17 The Japanese and American agreeing they should leave that house:

6:56 Man, a true japanese soldier right there!

Great work!! Keep up the hard work!! Can't wait to see the next one!! For your next one can you have an alternate history or like the Japanese invading the United states along side the Germans as well like can you do Man In the High Castle maybe? That'd be cool and awesome!! Hope you like my idea and will do it!!!

Amazing as always 👍

6:56 commander: why you not shooting? soldier: im on 1000+ ping

0:51 Tiger tank. Actually the Japan tried to buy some of them in real history but failed because there was no ship or submarine to bring it. + 6:56

I love the battle ground design and terrain..one of my favorite war games... But in terms of nerve wracking, relentless and resalient battle..it goes to berlin and london last stand..keep up warefarefaming

And now we finally have them all. Great video btw

Loved the video @Warfare Gaming! Can't wait for the next video man! Seems very Appropriate that the video is 19:45 Long. Also, here are some highlights for me. Timeframe 0:05 Cursed Flight Pathing Confirmed on Boeing B-29 Superfortress Bombers Timeframe 5:16-5:26 American M24 Chaffee and Japanese Type 97 Kai-Shinoto Chi-Ha play a Deadly game of "Slap Fight". The Chaffee, though being a Modern Light Tank, wins. Timeframe 14:22 It's that Monster again! Also, There were some "Japanese Ferdinand's" in the mix as well as a Rather Extremely Prolific use of the Infamous Nikkuhaku Kogeki or "Human Bullet" which hasn't been seen since Guadalcanal. I think I might also check and see if Germany actually sent some Tiger Tanks over to Japan during the War.

Habrán desembarcado Habrán tomado algunas ciudades Habrán tomado Tokio Pero hasta que no tomen hasta el último milímetro de Japón no habrá rendición alguna TENNO HEIKA BANZAI!!!

i recommend you add more planes, more artillery, more suiciders, aa action, and dogfights and boyonet action too but the vid was awesome and unique and i see you put a lot of effort in it

So amazing how accurate this is even though it didn't happen

Idea: You should have the inside of the Imperial palace, leading to a secret tunnel that would allow the emperor (A Officer Maybe) to escape. Maybe even a tank or truck waiting to pick him up, It could even lead to a part 2 where the car would stop at a B I G base and lead to a big battle and the emperor getting killed or captured.

12:59 that one japanese soldier that was in the middle of that massacre of flying bodies wondering how the fuck survive that xd

Only two things missing from this series: 1) A Montana sailing into Tokyo Bay and taking on the Nagato as the Combined Fleet's last stand. 2) Room-to-room fighting in the Palace itself and the capture of Hirohito.

How good is that video i can't explain with words! Great job i really enjoyed watching this! Masterpice

13:41　江戸城築城350年目、最初にして最後の戦い

Nice video. loved it (as always.) But I have a question: Why do you still use Men of War era editor and not the more realistic Gates of Hell editor? Thanks so much for all the work you do. :)

6:57 That machine gunner was so nervous he was literally shaking XD

If emperor’s palace was the target, b-29 would’ve razed it to ground before any army or marine could reach it.

Awesome Work!

One of my great grandfathers on my moms side had enlisted in the USAAF and was going to the pacific. Fortunately, the bombs dropped and he went home before any combat would’ve occurred. If this happened, my great grandfather would’ve been in one of those bombers at the start and I could’ve never existed if he was shot down.

I really enjoyed watching the end of this series! Thank you for all the effort you put into it. :) I do wonder what would of happened to emperor Hirohito in this situation. I'm actually surprised there wasn't a major tank battle on the Kanto plains. Also equally surprised by the Japanese tiger tanks, I suppose in this instance the Japanese army kept the ones they originally purchased them from Germany and remade a limited amount. I do hope you'll do more ww2 based videos, alternative history or otherwise.

Thanks man for including my idea

6:57 that Japanese machine gunner is having a seizure

It's finally here!

Fucking amazing video...i really didn't expect a tiger in there... I know, that in February 1944, the Japanese paid for one tiger and were officially the owners of it at that point. But they never ever got it. He allegedly disappeared after being reassigned by the wehrmacht somewhere in France. Thank you for the vid

多分もっと日本軍は一方的にやられる

hope you can do the Battle of Saigon in 1975, Saigon last stand between NVA and SVA force, historical battle :)

This is not the American way of fighting. It’s more bold than the Soviets in berlin.

T29 heavy tank, Little David mortar and LVTs missing - apart from that, excellent work

Thanks you men 😎👍🔥🔥🔥

いやあしかし…試作多砲塔重戦車とかいうロマンの塊が、マスタングに無情に爆撃されるところが何とも…

Maybe you can continue the Operation Unthinkable series, thanks

日本人としてこの動画を見るととても悔しい。 もし本土決戦となってたらこんな感じになってたかも。

MILLIONS would have died, both soldiers and civilians, if this had happened for real.

Imagine something like the reichstag defence, but instead of the Germans defending the reichstag it's the japanese defending the imperial palace

I remember watching band of brothers and at the end their talking about a combat jump on Tokyo I think that would be cool to see

思ったより善戦してるな...

“On the Emperor’s birthday, a barrage of Katsyuka Rockets will tear Tokyo to pieces with your guns, with your bullets, with your bayonets. Do the same to their wretched soldiers.” “Spread the word.” “Citizens of Tokyo, an iron steel surrounds your rotten city, we will crush all those who defy us, abandon your post, abandon your homes and most of all abandon all hope.”

本土決戦の日本軍にしては銃火器の充足率が完璧だな

Thank you for your great movie ! 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

時代背景もサイズ感も無茶苦茶で草

6:57 is this a new type of banzai ?

I love the video end in 19:45

The streets of Tokyo would have been reduced to rubble by 1946-1947 had this happened for real.

Great vid ! Would of seen us m 40s 155mm fireing point blank ,flame throwing Sherman's,,and lots of napalm being dropped before inf assults..

ドイツなんてリアルにこうなったんだもんな

6:49 this must be M4A2E2 Jumbo

1:27 nice reload

物資に恵まれた我が皇軍を描いてくれて感謝。

My God! That WW2 must have been terrifying! I'm just glad no one got hurt.

ティーガーではなく4式中戦車でお願いします😢

Seeing that there are experimental tanks in the movie, I think that the heavy Japanese type 5 CHI RI, the ro go and horo tank fighter with their 120 and 150 mm howitzer respectively should have been included.

This is the best camera work i´ve seen in a Gates of Hell video. usually the camera work its terrible

Saving Private Ryan 2:Tokyo Boogaloo. Seriously, this would make a killer movie. The banzai charge would be absolutely awesome in theaters. Get Christopher Nolan, Robert Rodat or Sam Mendes on this ASAP. This is a super cool concept.

Nice videos have a nice day warfaregaming

Can you do the battle of seelow heights of the battle of anzio and a good idea it's 30 t-90 vs 20 leopard hell

I love ur vids makes me want to get it but i cant since i have no money and my pc sucks

こんなに善戦できないだろ😢

懐かしいありがとうございました❤️

US: Ha! We have Shermans. They cant stop our armored force! Japan: *Tora Ichi* US: Huh!?

Why stinger machine guns or more m2 carbines wouldn’t the weapons have been distributed more since the war at this point would have gone on another year or two

Next,u.s assault inside of hirohito castle pls hehe.

Holy shizz - Them GIs are about as accurate as Imperial Stormtroopers.

i hope you get 1 million subscribers

What a coincidence, the entire video is 19:45

Nice

Whats the name of the background Song?

19 minutes and 45 second that's the year of Japan surrender on ww2

14:55 fucking scared the shit out of me

Funfact, even tho German tiger was never used in Japan, there was a submarine transport that was carrying some tiger 1 from Germany but it sink with unknown reason

Does this game have custom battles kind of like total war?

❤Genial Battle. Maestro!!!!!

末期日本にしては高い充足率だけどここまで上手く動画にしているのはすごい

Look at those pretty green uniforms :)

This game was gates of hell ostfron because there was bolt action reloading animation which men of war assault squad doesnt have

0:51 If you dont know.Japanese have Tiger tank from Nazi

Looks like we need a Hirohito's version of Der Utergang

The pure horror at 16:56 when you see the burning man standing there still manning the wall.

Will this map be uploaded to the workshop?

Please do battle of manila ❤

My only nitpick was the lack of the the Type-3 Ho-Ni III, Type-3 Chi-Nu II, Type-4 Chi-To, Type-5 Ho-Ru and a bunch of other tanks but i guess they didn't have models.

Video length 1945 Nice touch
