Description
This film, Japan's first feature-length animated film that set the stage for the rise of anime, was a propaganda piece ordered by the Japanese Naval Ministry during World War II made to show the Japanese public how the Japanese military had achieved such decisive victories in the South Pacific. It tells the story of young Japanese boys -- a bear cub, a monkey, a pheasant, and a puppy -- from their school days to their joining the army and fighting against Japan's "enemies" and shows how the animals in the jungle -- meant to symbolize the residents of the Asian countries the Japanese conquered -- welcomed the Japanese army's "liberating" them from their western masters.
