Jr: Time for a history video that you'll see

Kota, Eri, Mahoro, and Katsuma: YAY

The screen starts off with the narrator saying his thing.

On December 7th, 1941, hundreds of Japanese fighter planes attacked the American naval base at Pearl Harbor near Honolulu, Hawaii.

Everyone: WAIT WHAT

Bakuhoe: WHY THE FUCK WOULD WE ATTACK A STUPID BASE FOR

Kota, Eri, Mahoro, and Katsuma: BOO

Momo: But why would we attack the U.S. for

Japan and the USA were edging towards war for decades.

Melissa: Wait, we were?

Jr: Yes

The United States were unhappy with the way the Japanese Empire had treated China, and stopped giving the country oil.

Everyone was shocked to hear parts of their dark history of Japan that they never knew about until now.

Still, no one believed that Japan would attack American soil. The Japanese plan was to [Hawaiian music playing] bomb the American fleet so that it could not fight back.

Deku: So is this the reason why the U.S. bombed us?

Jr: Yes

Bakuhoe: FUCK OUR ANCESTORS

Most of the battleships were docked in the harbor and sustained damage from the Japanese planes which filled the sky. A bomb smashed through the deck of the USS Arizona and caused the ship to explode, sinking, with more than 1,000 men trapped inside.

Mina: Those poor men

Yuga: Sacrebleu

Muscular: Being a villain is bad, but this is more worse

Nezu: Being in the military during a war can include many casualties either when you're in the enemy side or not

As American sailors were caught off guard, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor damaged nearly 20 American ships and more than 300 airplanes. 2,500 men were killed, and another 1,000 were wounded.

Everyone payed their respects to the ones that died, even though it was all forgotten when Quirks started to exist.

The Japanese had failed to destroy the Pacific Fleet Entirely. Most of the aircraft carriers were away from the base, and most of the shipyards and submarine docks were left intact. The next day, President Roosevelt made a speech on how the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked. The United States had now entered World War 2.

The video ends

Jr: Well, you know what I'm gonna say

Deku: That was both interesting and dark at the same time

Iida: WE SHOULD BE ASHAMED AFTER WHAT OUR ANCESTORS DID, also WHY HAS ANY OF THIS HAS NOT BEEN TOLD TO US BEFORE

Nezu: Some histories from their own land has chosen to not be told to not repeat the past, but other countries tell those dark stories of their past

Huey: No offense, but do any of you even read articles or watch documentaries of history

Everyone: No

Dewey: What about watching a movie, playing a game, or even looking up memes that is based on history

Everyone: WAIT, REALLY?!

Everyone got dumbfounded that there were movies, games, and memes based off of history.

Louie: Well that's basically your problem then

Louie then looked up history memes on his phone.

Olley: It should've been obvious to tell since it will say it's based off a true story, despite some not being fully accurate to the actual story, but there's also some that are based on an alternate timelines of history

Me: They'll know more of their past soon

Jr: I can't wait for them to know what George W. Bush almost experience from
