There's that Gate show. A portal to a fantasy world opens up and the JSDF colonizes it and it's portrayed as cool and good and theres the 900 year old child waifu shit and everything. The whole thing is a rabidly reactionary commercial for the JSDF it's kind of amazing in a horrible way
oh yeah, I do recognize that one. That show doesn't even hide how bloodthirsty it is.
I also just remembered Joker Game, a show about Japanese spies in 1937 that only kinda sorta mentions Japan was allied with Nazis and instead tries to be "oh wow cool spies and cool Japanese army stuff." Also horrifyingly reactionary
I'm starting to get the feeling anime doesn't do real world political stuff much because it will just express the dominant conservative attitudes of Japan itself
