Lol I'm a weeb and I would agree that they were savages during the war. Just because I like their uniforms doesn't mean I don't think they should have been stopped with extreme prejudice. But if their bloodlust could have been kept under control, I think their civil management of conquered territories was just fine. Especially the little shithole island nations would have ended up much better as part of the Coprosperity Sphere. (I'm treating comfort women as an act of war. It's not something that would have continued.)
