Some loser: “Please don’t watch the history of japan video AGAIN! You’ve watched it 83 times already!
Me:

Holy shit you’re right.
honestly this video is so good but the part that gets me every time is the fact that it’s so hectic and fast paced but there’s this long quite chilling pause after the atom bombs are dropped
just a moment of sobriety in the midst of the humor
Fun tidbit I learned recently: the former keyboardist for Casiopea, Minoru Mukaiya, personally composed over 200 unique jingles for 110+ Japanese Metro stations that play over the speakers when the train pulls in to help passengers remember their stop. Considering how much ridership Japan's metro system has he's easily one of the most listened-to musicians in history completely independent of the band he was in for ~30 years.
