    I have this unpleasant hunch that if any projection occurs here, it will end very soon after threats of, for example, a bomb from some 右翼団体 faction. It wouldn’t be the first time. Like in Nagoya, when a simple statue caused a furor of absolutely unbelievable proportions, and especially the subsequent reaction was completely out of proportion. Because pretty much everything that relates in any way to WW2 and doesn’t paint the portrait the government here is painting (“nothing happened at all and the numbers don’t add up either”) is sort of stonewalled here.
