Let's Review (What is the video about?) :

(Want to know the names and characters' description? Visit: http://southpark.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Characters/Major_Characters )
                   
         Stan Marsh       Kyle Broflovski          Eric Cartman        Kenny McCormick   

•  Main character: Stan and his family went for a dolphin performance at a seaquarium.
•  Japanese came charging in and started killing the dolphins and even went to other seaquariums to kill other dolphins and whales!
• After witnessing what was happening, Stan reflected this issue with his dad. Stan just couldn't understand why the Japanese was doing it.
• The killings carried on and no one seems to be doing anything to stop the Japanese. What's worse, according to the news report in this video showed the current "PM" of Japan using vulgarities towards the whales and dolphins and did nothing to stop his people from killing the animals.
• Stan cannot stand the killings anymore, he believes that something should be done.
• So Stan approaches his friends (Eric, Kenny & Kyle) for support but his friends aren't interested in supporting him and they just think that the killings is a part of the Japanese culture and said, "It is just the way they are!" and "I don't care at all." 
• Stan got flared and think this is definitely not the way and he disliked the attitude that people are giving.
• While Stan was feeling helpless, Butters (his another friend) came to his room and told him about a group of activist were doing something to stop the Japanese in the sea.
• Stan was so delighted when he got this news especially when he knows this group of people allow volunteers, immediately he went to join this group of people captained by a man named, "Paul Watson".
• This activist were actually a show that is currently showing in reality titled, "Whale Wars".
• Their objectives is to stop the Japanese from whaling in the sea by stopping the ships and doing something.
• But after Stan has joined, he realised that the methods captain Paul has been using wouldn't be enough to stop the Japanese and worse off, captain Paul was later killed by the Japanese's spear.
• Stan with his daring character and attitude, he started to set fire on the Japanese ships, going all out to stop the Japanese.
• Soon Stan's aggressive method started to work well and news reported that "Whale War ratings skyrocket" and "New captain not a fat liar like the old one"
• All the seaquariums started to proceed with the performance without all the bloody killings.
• The news of Stan's crew sinking one after another Japanese ships reaches the current Japanese's "PM", it totally blew him up!
•  As the show getting more and more popular, they went to Larry King Live show, and even Larry King agreed that captain Paul only cares about boosting the ratings of the show but in fact nothing was done to stop the Japanese.
• Stan left the show halfway thinking that attending the show was a waste of time and continued on his mission to stop the Japanese.
• While Stan was discussing the plan with his crewmate on what are they going to do to stop the Japanese, this time Eric and Kenny appeared to volunteer. (Recap: This two friends showed no concerned about the killings in the front part)
• So obviously, Stan believes that Eric and Kenny joined because of the fame as the show ratings is very high now.
• Suddenly, news of Japanese ship doing whaling was noted, Stan's crew went to the last known location and they found out was actually another crew shooting live show on crab fishing.
• And the crab fishing boat kept blocking the way of Stan's for 3 hours and nothing can be done, Stan felt very down... ...
• Suddenly, some strange comforting noise was heard, Stan rushes out of his cabin and saw alot of whales swimming around and the whales dragged away the crab fishing boat.
• Stan was so touched and felt that the whales understands and appreciates what Stan and his crew has been doing.
• At this moment the Japanese appears with planes and bombs and bombed the whales and Stan's ship.
• Stan, Eric and Kenny was caught and thrown into the Japanese's jail.
• The Japanese's PM went to see them and brought them to the World War II museum and showed Stan and friends a photo showing the "person" who is flying the atomic bomb plane was actually a whale and a dolphin and the PM said, "The Americans were nice enough to send the Japanese a photo the day after the bombing" to show whos actually the real culprit causing the sufferring of the people in Hiroshima who was bombed by the atomic nuclear bombs even up till now.
• After Stan knows what is happening, he called Kyle who was at the computer to doctor a photo and replaced the whale and the dolphin on the photo into cow and chicken. And he gave it to the PM.
• From that day onwards, the Japanese started a mass killings again but this time is the killing of the cows and chickens.
• And the video ended with Stan's dad saying, "Great job son! Now the Japanese are normal like us."

Reflection time! (still awake?)

Now, questions to ask yourself...

1. How is the South Park episode related to what is happening now in reality?
2. Is the "It is just the way they are!" and "I don't care at all." attitude of those people who are witnessing the killings acceptable? If were you, will you be thinking the same way?
3. Lastly, What is the significance of the last scene whereby Stan's dad saying, "Great job son! Now the Japanese are normal like us."

Think hard!!!!!!! ^^

My reflection:

1. In this South Park video, it shows that the Japanese are mass killing for the sake of revenge thinking that years ago during World War II, it was the Whales and Dolphins flying the planes to send the atomic bombs to Japan. In reality, the Japanese are actually doing the whaling and killing the dolphins mainly because of money and secondly, because of using it as food. (Will be further explained on my next blog, interested? Read my next blog! ^^)
2. The attitude were absolutely unacceptable but in this world not everyone will be willing to volunteer themselves even though no matter how much they dislikes what is going on as there are many restrictions in the real war, e.g. laws, regulations, marality... Personally, I don't think it the same way but i reckoned, i would not be able to do much thing about but at least I am able to post this issue on my blog hoping that when people read my blog, they actually realise what is going on. :)
3.  The significance of the last scene is important because it kinds of concluded who we the humans actually are which is, actuallyeveryone arekillers of animals, not only the Japanese. It is just that killing cows and chickens are the norms since the past which people has taken for granted that this is the right thing to do.

Hence, last thing to reflect on..
What will you do to help create the awareness of this issue? And i shall end here.
Thank you for reading my blog! Its been a long one I know... ><
