Japanese people enjoying freedom in the 1920s.
Taisyo Democracy as a historical term is Japanese democracy movement stormed over the islands in the Taisyo Era (1911-1925). This movement realized the universal suffrage system in Japan for the first time in Asia although it was limited to men over 25.

Japanese were westernized well enough to enjoy the freedom until the war in China broke out to restrict it in 1938 and the days of patience began.
When the war was over, rebuilding the country started to take back the good old days. Modern Japan is still on the extended line of old Japan but younger people do not know this anymore. Not knowing this, they want JSDF to be stronger as "new" attempt. This would be an instinct as a people IMO.
