I prefer to consider the modern country of Japan as progressive; forward thinking. Why do they fixate on battle scenes and mecha from a war in which they affiliated themselves with Nazis, committed atrocities in China and ultimately lost so desisively? (One might assume those are U.S. airmen dying in those planes going down). I wonder if they would appreciate published pop-art extolling the virtues of us nuking them.

This is called national pride, expressed in art. And there are several video documentaries glorifying how US heroes nuked evil Japan, and even more showing US heroes fighting all over the world in several wars, regardless if this was right or not.
If this is ok for the US, so why not for other nations? Ah, I see, it's because they lost. The loser has no right for pride.

One might assume that there are japanese sailors dying in the ship sinking in the background...

I don't call it national pride... I call it a historic obsession with militarism which I thought they had more or less got past since WWII. I don't care for it generally and even less when I'm trying to look at lolis.
