Genre: censorship, action
Year: 2015
Introduction:
Based on the novels and anime of the same name.
Synopsis:
About half a year has passed since the kidnapping of the commander of Nishina Base and the especially fierce battle of Odawara. Peace is returning to Musashino’s main library. Komaki recommends a book to Nakazawa Marie, who’s a hearing impaired. Komaki gets taken away for this. It’s a pretext to arrest Komaki, blemish the library and finally expend censorship on larger scope. And another conflict starts…
Critique:
Good story. The show and special and movies are very close to the novels/anime.
I got to say the set is a really nice modern library in a military base. I had doubts about the cast but the main ones turned out well chosen.
This is a serious theme which is pure “fantasy” still. If you agree then you are the perfect constituent.
đŸ˜† Just a few years ago history books among others in various countries including western and Japan had seen another spurt of censorship. Abe’s party has revised and introduced history books for schools denying or without the Nanking incident. Or under the pretense of protecting original national language (France) or introducing new and easier writing rules (Germany) word in used for centuries or since their inception have been replaced or removed altogether (French, German, English etc.). Even wikipedia is actively censored in all kinds of way by applying it’s rules or obfuscation (under pretense of moving or reorganization to delete content). Social engineering is happening and not just recently. Most people likely catch only on 1% of it at best or not at all.It’s said Komaki can only be held for 7 days before he must be released from detention. I dunno where this comes from but in Japan you really do not want to get in such a situation. The basic detention period without charge is 72 hours. Afterwards, a court can permit a 10 day extension for a total of 23 days. In Japan you have a 0.2% chance to leave after 72 hours. You won’t get forgotten for years like in some other countries but spending in detention for months isn’t unheard of. There are no special visit time permitted whatsoever outside of work days.
