From the USA! Trying to learn Japanese is fun and challenging so I am using this song and other channels as a way of learning.

So glad to learn this song doesn't originate from WWII period Japan, and it's from a bit before that...
I can listen to this masterpiece without guilt as a Korean.

もともとは、西南戦争における反乱軍を鎮圧するための明治政府｢警視庁｣抜刀隊の歌ですからね。西南戦争自体はどちらの軍も基本は大砲とライフルで行われました、しかし戦闘が銃剣突撃の段階に移行した時に現れる薩摩藩士の日本刀部隊による狂気的な切り込み攻撃に対し、西洋式に慣れ近接戦闘の経験の少ない鎮圧軍の若い兵士達が対処できず混乱に陥り多数の死者を出す事が続いたので、明治政府は戊辰戦争の生き残りのベテラン達を主に警察官から集めて編成されたのが｢抜刀隊｣なのです👍️彼らの中には戊辰戦争で新政府の敵となった会津藩の残党の武士達も居ました。
