Tokio Jokio is a 1943 comic Looney Tunes cartoon, an animated short film produced by Warner Bros. It was intended as an American propaganda film against Japan while the two countries were at war. As with most of the Looney Tunes shorts produced during World War 2, the film consists of a series of rapid-fire, short gag vignettes.
The opening scene features a voice-over explaining that the short is merely a Japanese newsreel that was "captured from the enemy". The theme is on Japanese propaganda. Although the jokes are generally aimed at Japan, the cartoon also pokes fun at Rudolph Hess, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini. Since the United States was at war and fought for survival - the stereotypes in the film were intended to give audiences some sense of superiority and optimism.
All of the voices in the cartoon were performed by Mel Blanc. (Mel Blanc earned the nickname "The Man of a Thousand Voices". He is best remembered for his work as the voices of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Tweety Bird, Sylvester the Cat, and many other Looney Tunes characters.)
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND / CONTEXT
On the morning of December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy launched a surprise attack on the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, that severely damaged the American Pacific fleet. The attack came as a profound shock to the American people and led directly to the American entry into World War II in both the Pacific and European theaters. Domestic support for non-interventionism disappeared. Clandestine support of the United Kingdom was replaced by active alliance.
The following day, December 8, the United States declared war on the Empire of Japan. The lack of any formal warning, particularly while negotiations were still apparently ongoing, led President Franklin D. Roosevelt to proclaim December 7, 1941, "a date which will live in infamy". Because the attack happened without a declaration of war and without explicit warning, the attack on Pearl Harbor was judged by the Tokyo Trials to be a war crime after the end of World War 2.
On December 11, Germany and Italy, honoring their commitments under the Tripartite Pact, declared war on the United States. The pact was an earlier agreement between Germany, Italy and Japan which had the principal objective of limiting U.S. intervention in any conflicts involving the three nations. The United States Congress issued a declaration of war against Germany and Italy later that same day. The United Kingdom actually declared war on Japan nine hours before the U.S. did, partially due to Japanese attacks on Malaya, Singapore and Hong Kong, and partially due to Winston Churchill's promise to declare war "within the hour" of a Japanese attack on the United States.
Throughout the war, Pearl Harbor was frequently used in American propaganda.
One further consequence of the attack on Pearl Harbor and its aftermath (notably the Niihau Incident) was that Japanese American residents and citizens were relocated to nearby Japanese-American internment camps. Within hours of the attack, hundreds of Japanese American leaders were rounded up and brought to high-security camps such as Sand Island at the mouth of Honolulu harbor and Kilauea Military Camp on the island of Hawaii. Later, over 110,000 Japanese Americans, including United States citizens, were removed from their homes and transferred to internment camps in California, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arkansas, and Texas.
The war on the Pacific against the Empire of Japan culminated in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the United States Army Air Forces, accompanied by the Soviet invasion of Manchuria on 8 August 1945, resulting in the Japanese announcement of intent to surrender on 15 August 1945. The formal and official surrender of Japan took place aboard the battleship USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay on 2 September 1945.

Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto was the commander of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) and was responsible for planning major battles of World War 2 in the Pacific, including the Attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. This animated film was originally released in May of 1943, the month after Yamamoto was killed when his Mitsubishi G4M1 "Betty" medium bomber airplane was shot down by US Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighter planes over Bouganville Island on April 18, 1943.

@@77PacerStudioswhat I find really interesting is that if I remember correctly, admiral Yamamoto was actually very against the idea of attacking pearl harbour and thought it wasn’t a good idea, but kind had to plan it cause he was coerced by the military factions

3:53 Isoroku Yamamoto was killed in April 1943 after American code breakers identified his flight plans, enabling the United States Army Air Forces to shoot down his plane. His death was a major blow to Japanese military morale during World War II.
That stood out. Release date of the short was May 15, 1943 (United States). Admiral Yamamoto was shot down on 18 April 1943. However, the Pentagon didn't reveal that he was dead until 9 days after Japan surrendered in September 1945.
The AAF sent 16 fighters after his bomber. They were taking ZERO chances on that one.

Yamamoto never made ot to the electric chair. He was shot down by American P-38 fighters in the war.
@@glnnchrstphr9717 Even with that specially reserved seat? Man. Heartless.
Well, he was the guy that planned and committed the attack on Pearl Harbor, which at the time was a villainous sneak attack made worse by Japanese incompetence at timing the delivery of their declaration of war. Not that the original was much better since they planned to be in a position to attack only 20-ish minutes after the letter reached Washington, making it a technicality that they didn’t attack without declaration. But the Japanese delegation negotiating at Washington took longer expected and delivered their letter a whole half an hour after the first bombs fell. Needless to say an entire country was rightfully pissed off. Especially towards the guys that planned and executed the whole thing.
Yamamoto is mf who planned attack on pearl Harbour. He deserves to be made fun of tho.
All of it was heartless. The planes used to use machine guns to pick off people that ejected and were parachuting down.
It's nice to look at a time when people weren't worried about getting their feelings hurt constantly or hurting other people feeling if that's what's on your mind then that's what's on your mind if that's how you really think when you really want to know how someone's really thinking instead of hiding behind some kind of fake facade
Seriously- you are nostalgic for wartime when people in Europe and Asia were getting slaughtered as propaganda worked to dehumanize them so civilians on both sides wouldn't see anything wrong with their deaths? This has nothing to do with hurt feelings.

If anyone calls this racist, you have missed the whole point
But it’s racist, that’s the point
@@froggermeister6399 Yes, but people didn't understand the context of the situation. They just thought it was wrong.
Wait it is not racist? Dislike.
@Richard Solano based on what?
@Jo thx for the realoty check
fun fact: cartoons were originally for adults because they were talking about politics and racist jokes back then
Actually no kids were just dou.... right um the comedy standards were a bit differrent than the dumpster fire we have now. Honestly id really rather have this than tik tok and vine
@@tee-shorts5891 true, probably even reddit as well
this is not racist at all
@@mranderson2725 what would you like to call it then?
Good that they didn't indoctrinate children. Pretty sure it's against one or more amendments (I wouldn't know the specific ones cuz I'm not a US citizen). Thank God for the constitution.
Well ya.... It's natural to hate and make fun of your enemies.
This is absolutely awesome!!!!
Why does this have better animation than most things nowadays.
Because the us army funded this like they found Michael Bay
Because the animation was done by hand, frame by frame. Search youtube for this. It's quite amazing to see.😉
Because it was way more expensive, so you. You couldn't just make cheap cash grabs.
Also check out the ducktator . It is More humorous . I laughed my lungs out after seeing that. 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Because it's the truth
And to think, now so many American people want to travel to Japan, love and admire traditional Japanese culture, enthusiastically buy Japanese tech products and consume Japanese media. Amazing what changes can happen in 50 years
And so many Japanese people want to travel to America, because Japan is overcrowded and has dying tech industries.
@@za.monolit bro she was not trying to be offensive.
@@DrDDuck bro
@@za.monolit How is Japan overcrowded? Declining birth rates is currently the issue.
@@johnvalentino2521 you realise Honshu is one of the most populated islands in the world right. Not to mention the majority of the country is mountains and lives in cities, overcrowded cities at that. The only part of japan that isn't overcrowded is shikoku and hokkaido.
I love this hahahahaa bring it back!
I’ll never understand the idiots who get offended by this. It was WAR time. The Japanese had killed thousands of Americans in a sneak attack, and were commuting atrocities all over Asia.
This is what to do in war- make fun of the enemy; hate the enemy. You should see the axis propaganda about the allies. Makes this look tame.
People saying its offensive lol
these is straight up roasting
Shun Jags and just what kind of creature are you?I’m betting you’re just a Russian.
No shit. Do you think they were playing friends back then?
King of the gods
Stop hating Russia
I’m Russian and that’s offensive
Sandbox Suicide lol
Just like Hiroshima lmao
99% of comments: its supposed to be racist its history
1% of comments: haha emo Hitler go brrrr
Lol
wheres the japanese people saying this shit is funny
Love the mine sweeper
I didn't know that was Looney Tunes, but now that I saw that I remember that from when I was a kid.
I've got all the "Censored 11" videos that didn't make it to DVD.
Upload them
Please upload them and send us links
Please upload them on bitchute so there's less of a chance of it getting taken down
Please upload em no matter how """"offensive"""" history is history
They're already on RUclips
Top 10 oldest anime
Jelly jub lol
XD
*Art Piece
Tobias Samuel that’s the joke...
Well, the animation on this is far better than the animation of 1930s anime...
Kids watching this not having a clue about what’s going on
It is genuinely important this still exists. We should never forget this.
You know what, I'm gonna say it.
Even eighty years later, this shit is still pretty funny.
Ah, kritisch...
@@masterofallthelakesintown2472 the Japanese still say they did nothing wrong.
@@lindsey7951 nice
I'm a sansei, and i agree with you
Now we just need a nissei. an issei and or an actual japanese person to agree, and it makes you free from the unholy hand of the people who don't know the meaning of comedy
@@kjnjhfztghkbjhgfkhjzhzugjk9789 Should've nuked Tokyo
I’m Japanese and I do look like those typical Japanese, and I do speak English like them, so I’m ten billion percent sure I’m a descendant of them.
I never knew my Japanese father... who knows.. I may be looking at my ancestors. 🤔
@@jrmckim damn he left with da mil-
hey.... we love you. don't be ashamed. this cartoon is bullshit. 😊💕
@@jaredbond7908 lol
Is a joke... mostly this was use for war propaganda lol take the joke, is like me putting me as eating tacos and wearing a Mexican hat cuz I speak Spanish even I am not Mexican lol but is a joke xD
I love these documentaries🎉
Great old-school depictions. It is scary how accurate they are.
At the same time, remember John Basilone's speech in The Pacific to get the young marines ready to face the Japanese army telling them that these cartoons were bullshit- "the Japanese soldier doesn't care if he gets hurt or killed, as long as he kills you"
Yep look at the kamikaze attacks. A perfect example of the ideology that plagued Japan.
@@pokemasterx4244 the “we are the master race who must do whatever we can to serve the emperor” way of thinking?
Sounds very similar to a certain small mustachioed man with a combover...
I don't think he had to debunk a cartoon, i think even back then they could tell this thing is pretty patently over the top
@@dogol284 even then, Nazi Germany was very similar culturally to the US, at least compared to the Japanese. For example, I believe the Western Allies captured 3,000,000 Germans for 500,000 German dead - as compared to the Japanese who had an average 98% mortality rate.
@@dogol284 no shit bro, Japan was like 3 times worse than the Nazis during WW2 and people dont even give a fuck about that.
man my grandpa was in WW2 and the day he was discharged hitler died, he told me how happy he was when he got that news. R.I.P my grandpa
😔
bruh that had to be the best day of his life. he left the worst war in history, and the man who caused it died.
As an asian myself
Holy crap this is hilarious
haha
Some of these I didn't get. But the listening post, plane spotter, tricycle landing gear, and the sub launched early gave me a chuckle. 😅
I feel like the very short bit about Italy represent how little it mattered
I didn't even see italy
@@user-pn7jz9vr2z exactly...
Mamamia as an offended i find-a this-a very-a italiano eh?
Mussolini was the overlooked middle child of the Axis.
@@lennypayne4241 you could almost say they left him... hanging.
real footage of North Korean military technology
;)
you know that north koreans are more elite,battleharder and discpilined than americans right?
because americans lack ALL of these.
Fedoragoblin87 XD
fot ppd So were the Japanese.
And yet theh lost because they lacked better industry and economy.
It would be the same thing with a war with North Korea.
Martin K You do realize 90 percent of the resources North Korea uses comes from China?
If China cuts them off, they will economically implode in a year.
Please, don't judge this video in the current context, but in the 1942 context.
This is awesome
Normal people: what an interesting look back at the history of animation.
Twitteer: REEEE RACISTT BURN THE FOOTAGE!! ERASE IT FROM HISTORY!
Humanity would only benefit if Twitter didn't exist
@Eugenio Mollo have you been in a coma?
@Eugenio Mollo well that large majority is mostly silent. While that smaller majority usually out shouts the larger majority.
@Eugenio Mollo Fristly "some" is an understatement.
secondly "twitter problem" yes the problem is on twitter. But it doesnt define twitter, i agree with you.
Of course most people on twitter are normal. It would be easier if only the sjws used it then we could all stay well clear. lol
@Eugenio Mollo The real problem is in real life. I live in London most people I know here are "woke" leftists.
