To those who come to my blog from overseas: misconceptions about Japan's war as visualized by "Barbenheimer"

For the first time, I am going to write a very special blog for people coming from overseas.

First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to those who come to this blog from various countries overseas, even though it is written in Japanese.

I assume that you come to this blog because it is written about studio Ghibli, and I hope that the translation function is working properly.

Now, I would like to tell you about an issue that is causing great anger and sadness in Japan today: the countless images of "Barbenheimer," which is the joke that combines the American movie "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer".

These are images that stir up so much anger and sadness for the Japanese that I won't even post them on my blog. It has become a big problem, especially since Barbie's account on Twitter, now X, has responded that it enjoys them.

In response, people overseas have said that the Japanese have no right to be offended by this. I'd like to give my opinion on this.
