Would be nice to see a strong Japan to feed a strong China; the test will be to see if China-Japan trade relations grow at the necessary rate for Japan. They're running out of markets.
I'm wondering what's Japan's target on military and weapons. It cannot be satisfied with the current situation. Expecting the competition and cooperation between China and Japan. With the speed of Japan changing its prime minister, the future must be interesting.

Grandpa says, "How can dey sneak attack you an' bomb Pearl Harbor again when dey are leashed indefinitely by US occupation forces?" The US occupation forces should stay there for 1,000 years. By then they can remain there permanently as "Japanese forces" because the Japanese will end up like the Native Americans.
