So did anyone take the time to watch it? I figured the history buffs here would at least find it interesting.

I thought it was about WW2 Japanese soldiers loading a barge with prisoners they captured in the Philippines or Singapore or Malaya. Hence the need for poles with hooks on them

An hour and a half cartoon?

I have to watch enough cartoons IRL, without adding another 90 minutes here....

Besides, when it comes to animae, there are only two I ever really liked...:

I expect a full book report.

Seriously, I reccomended this because it offered a point of view that I hadn't heard/seen before.

You're right - and it's offering one that I won't see or hear. What's the precis?

I'm afraid I'm going to need an extension on my assignment Mr. Crackpot. I've only found time to watch about half of it so far...

To be honest, The cheesy animae is so distracting, (frankly, I feel like I should be watching this with Mike, Crow, and Tom Servo) that whatever "message" there may be here is so buried beneath the poor animation and the hopelessly bad translated dialog, that the deeper "message" is lost on me....

Excuses, excuses...
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

It's not so much a message as relaying the experience. And it's circa 1983 anime what do you expect? That being said I can tell you overstated how far you got into the film. Then again if you had got to the critical moment I doubt you would have been able to stop
