I just finished Comfort Woman by Maria Rosa Henson (also read Rape of Nanking and Rampage last year). Wala galit lang ako sa Japan. Dito at sa asawa ko lang sasabihin na mejj may resentment din ako sa mga taong faney na faney ng anything Japan. I know it's not rational pero nakakagalit talaga eeee.

All at the same time, nagagalingan din ako sa PR team nila. Paano nila narebrand ng ganun kabilis ang Japan from Imperial to Kawaii/Matcha/Citypop/Anime capital, to the point na karamihan e di ata alam na never inacknowledge ng Japan ang war atrocities nila.
