That's not how war works at all. Japan has a larger navy, is tailor made to deter Chinese naval and air forces, and has American backing.

Not that guy, but let me tell you a few things:

>China's navy is being tailored and modernized to to counter the US navy.
Mate that shit will take 15-20 years before they fully catch up to the US Navy technology and power wise, and it will take them a longer time to get the same skill. 1st Class Navy isn't something you just construct and say "Hurr I'm on your level".

Ask, Japan who had the world's second best navy behind the Royal Navy before WWII with the US, and who had it completely destroyed in a matter of a few months. Granted it wasn't as modernized, but it was a good navy with good ships. Military wise China would get its shit wrecked by any real big military player like the Russian Federation, France, Britian, and the US, but they would do some heavy damage.

>US doesn't have the balls to start a war with China.
Mate, you don't know the US. It won't be a ground war due to the simple fact the US would be scoring kill after kill, but be wasting time and energy trying to take land/etc. It would be more a political and economic war like with the Soviets.

The part about industry shifting to smaller south east Asian nations is sort of true, but its not really that big.

And they're modernizing fast. This isn't twenty years ago. Many of the ships that are being churned out have decent hardware not to mention their new carriers. They may not be able to beat the US in the middle of the Pacific ocean, but a fight near the homeland backed up by missile batteries and airbases will go either way.

>It would be more a political and economic war like with the Soviets.
Which you're losing right now, given that almost every country in Asia joining the AIIB and your "freedom of navigation" patrols doing NOTHING to stop them from building islands and planting missiles on them.
The U.S will NOT start a war with China over a few rocks unless China invades a neighboring country, which they're not stupid enough to do.
>>
>>139015013
>Yes it is, Michael Bay admitted himself that he get backing and support by the US army for the transoformers movies
On that note, Marvel Superhero films HAD military backing, but it ended during the filming of the first Avengers movie, when the government dislike how Nick Fury gave the middle finger to his superiors. Basically SHIELD was too far removed from real military and the US government cut ties ever since.

Thankfully the franchise is now big enough to afford their own military hardware now.

anyway the story was written around 2006-2007, when the JSDF is directly controlled by the Cabinet, but these days they now have their own ministry
>>
>>139025146
>Fighting a naval battle near the coastline.

Unless the US is intending to perform amphibious assaults and put troops on the coast of China there is no reason for the US to fight near the homeland of China or any country. The main point of a navy is to project naval power out of the coast, regulate your trade, and protect the area of sea outside your homelands.

>You're losing right now
That is some projecting.

>Joining the AIIB
There is nothing wrong with joining a bank meant for investing on low economy countries to produce materials and goods, you just need to make sure these countries produce something with the money given. If not you wasted money and time.

>Your freedom of navigation.
1) International Law it is not the United State
2) The Peoples Liberation Army Navy has done nothing to directly stop the trade of another country, or hold another countries ship and people at gun point. Claiming the sea as yours is a matter of debate by the international community, something the PRC knows it already lost, but wants to keep debating.
3) Artificial Islands are ones created by the country making them. Attacking them is breaking international law and is openly declaring hostilities to a country; effectively starting a war. People may not like missiles or military equipment on the islands, but so long as they are not ACTIVELY being used against another country in aggressive matter people will simply bitch and put pressure.

>>
>>139025269
>there is no reason for the US to fight near the homeland of China or any country
What about naval blockades? Why do you think China is so interested in the South China Sea? Because it secures a major trade route that they know will be under threat to themselves should one of America's allies get it. China may have lagged behind in power projection lately, but they are improving even in that regard with the new carriers.

>There is nothing wrong with joining a bank
The U.S certainly feels otherwise given all the pressure they tried to put on countries like the U.K or Australia to not join. The AIIB will be set up at the expense of the American Dollar. It's a win-win situation for China in this regard.

>International Law it is not the United State
What are you trying to say here?

China is building islands in the South China Sea that countries fear will be militarized.
The U.S warned China to not build and militarize them and sent warships to intimidate them.
China's response was to build them anyways and put missiles and fighter jets on them.
If this isn't a giant finger to the U.S, I don't know what is.

Even the bunko version, Itami commented that he expected the monsume to be a full fur girls, unlike what he saw in Italica, and glad for Kurata to be attracted to just "cat-eared girls" instead of "catgirls"

The artist of konbini dmz probably used even this offhand comment in the bunko version to design the monster girls to be full fur girls.

so yes, the manga is not following the original source and adds material

I'm having this distinct feeling you have no idea how a real catgirl looks like. Anyone got that chart to enlighten him?
>>
>>139025681
implying he can. You don't know how the government works if you think he can do anything he says he wants to. Most republicans are not in favor of that and the speaker of the house and congress just so happen to be republican.

The thing about GATE that's interesting (and somewhat alarming) is not so much it's promotion of nationalism (which is not exactly unique to Japan), but rather its specific ideal of nationalism as tied to the military, defined explicitly against the self-interested and morally bankrupt agents of 'civilian Japan', whether that be the media, 'traitorous 'left-wing critics of the JSDF or the government itself.

A major theme running through the show is of the JSDF's consistent moral purity and patriotic protection of Japanese citizens, which is constantly limited in by the political/diplomatic concerns of the civilian government. Each time, the JSDF triumphs (killing the dragon, fighting off the bandits in Italica) by just ignoring the orders of a cynical civilian government to do 'the right thing', sending the message that "if only the JSDF had more power, and was less limited by the government..."

Take the diet summons over the report of refugee deaths, where the female politician questioning them is portrayed negatively as a cynical and 'anti-Japanese' villain, trying to attack JSDF for her own personal agenda and vendetta. Considering that the government only has the JSDF's word to go on, to call them in and ask hard questions about their actions is an entirely appropriate method of holding the military to account. But the clear contrast the anime makes between 'villainous' politicians' and 'heroic' JSDF (with grateful refugees) leads to the the implication that any criticism or questioning of the JSDF's action is mistaken, and that to do so is in some sense anti patriotic.

Its kinda significant within the context of Japan, where since WW2 the JSDF has had basically no political power, along with the a general pacifist consensus among the Japanese people. The promotion of a version of 'military' rather than 'civic' nationalism at a time when the pacifist consensus is breaking down and Article 9 has been amended is a bit scary.

You guys I love watching this show. It make me want to join the reserves. Tell me not to do it.

2 bombs wasnt enough

Why is there no series like GATE but where the magic side wins?

If GATE was about immortal lolis invading Japan and winning, it would have been a thousand times more original than "hurr machine guns vs medieval infantry".
>>
>>139032577
The thing is though GATE isn't even good with that. There are soldiers affixing bayonets and charging into a crowd of trained swordsman because "muh bushido." Japs are actual fucking retards.

Go ahead, call me a POG, you'll feel better.
>>
>>139033142
Idk what POG is? I'm not really well acquainted with the military. I just assumed ARMY
>>
>>139033191
So you haven't even served in any military, let alone gone to bootcamp, but you're making fun of the air force. How cute.
>>
>>139033315
protip : POG is not a term used in every military force in existence.
>>
>>139033315
Of course. Even people who don't know shit know, the Airforce is garbage.

But seriously, no sarcasm why choose the Airforce over any other? Whats the Pro/Con?
>>
>>139033485
Better quality of life, don't get treated like a child once you're out of training, lot of jobs that can transfer over to the civilian sector.

I can only speak for the USAF though, other countries might have air forces that don't really offer anything over their army or navy.
>>
>>139007124
no its mostly about a modern military going into a fantasy world and killing everything
>>
>>139034499
Thats fairly accurate.

>>139007124
who fucking cares, just replace jsdf with your countries military

Trump's proposed policies on Korea and Japan aren't new. America has been pushing Japan and Korea to militarize for quite a while now, and so has Abe. I'm honestly not surprised neet losers who watches anime all day do not know this.

Makes sense. It's expensive for burgerland to cover their home defense expenses. Especially when missiles are something retarded like $20mil a pop

Chinese containment. Straya is also getting more military presence build-up, but they were always our crazy drunken buddies in the Pacific since the old wars when we helped Yahoo Serious and Crocodile Dundee fight the invasion of the giant spiders being piloted by hyper-intelligent stingrays. A dayum shame our greatest hero Irwin was lost to them.
