I think that's what people are saying as well. Any Japanese forum members have any input?
Demonized extensively to the point where I am having a hell of a time trying to find ANYTHING on the IJA in the pacific theatre.

Both soldiers from the United States Marine Corps and the Imperial Japanese Army deserve to be represented correctly at least for their sakes.
In that case lets hope they portray instances like the Bataan Death March correctly as well.
Or the internment of Japanese-American Civilians? Let's not get into this.
shame on you for even making that comparison.
And you're right let's not get into it.
While fun for the Americans, I really don't see the idea of an entire game to be devoted toward endless waves of Japanese machine gun fodder being fun for those on the Japanese team. If bonsai charges are implemented, I would think that a Guadalcanal map would be the best place to do it. At least most of the Americans would be shooting bolt actions and the Japanese might stand a decent chance. I don't know, I'm sure the devs could find some way to make it fun
10 Arisakas vs 1 Browning, I put my money on the rifles.
Plus, as soon as this one (or a couple) of machine gunners covering the area are killed the objective is then taken and the defensive value is meaningless.
Odds are these blokes were carrying Arisakas. Alligator Creek - Battle of the Tenaru.
