Seems to me they are trying a little too hard to appeal to youth to enlist.

No, the Japanese Navy really is like that...

Have you never seen the famous footage of the IJN's pilots breaking it down to a naff disco track just before boarding their Nakajima 97s and Mitsubishi A6Ms prior to attacking Pearl Harbor? Mitsuo Fuchida does some really cool break dancing.

:rotfl:

You guys never have seen how their zoo personell is training to recapture an escaped animal. You could put it unedited into the Muppet Show, and people wouldn't note the difference...
