Let's fiddle with the end of World War II a bit and say it lasts slightly longer, enough time for the Soviets to invade and occupy Hokkaido. It becomes the People's Democratic Republic of Japan, AKA North Japan. How does the landscape of the Cold War change with the Home Islands divided? Would...

So from my last thread I overestimate Asoiaf dragon so lets try again. What will happen if Empire of Japan in 1895 is ISOTed to Warhammer Fantasy universe in the years 2500. The position their island appear is east of Ulthuan, west of Estalia and north of Araby. Every single ship of their navy...

The premise of this thread is that Japan from 1895 is transported to west of Westeros near lonely light. Now ofcourse to make this interesting, this is 106 AC during the reign of Viserys I (Rogue prince bookmark for those who play CK2Agot). This is the period that dragons are alive and used by...

Foreword: Hey, it's Miho_Chan here! I'm back with another RP, this time a Semi-Realistic~Realistic RP inspired by the Kantai Collection Fanfic: Changing Destinies First off, let me start by saying this is NOT a grand strategy, though it will probably bear some similarities to it. A lot of OOC...

Akitsukuni: A proud and ancient land balancing on the edge. Between modernity and antiquity, between democracy and authoritarianism, between traditional and foreign ways.

Japan 2018...a land that is said to be unbroken from ages eternal...until now. In the South, the Emperor lives on as a symbol of his people, a prosperous power, considered as an equal by the West along with its South Korean neighbor. Its factories churn worth billions of dollars of electronics...

In World War II, what did Japan do in a concrete way for Germany and what did Germany do for Japan? I think a case might be able to be argued that German did help Japan to some extent by keeping the Western powers busy enough that they could not expend as great assets towards Japan as...

I stumbled upon this movie while on an international flight to Japan and watched it all the way through. It was a very good film that, while apparently criticized for being a bit dramatic, explores the life of LGBT people in Japan. I figured since our userbase has a notable amount of active...

The Land of the Red Fraction - An Arthurverse Tale The world of the Arthurverse, that world, quite like, yet different from ours, where among many great changes in the 13th century Arthur of Britanny took the throne of England following his uncle, that world is far greater than...

Hello! The "Eisen, Blut und Fernhandel" alternate history timeline can be found here Eisen, Blut und Fernhandel - an alternate German Unification timeline (Since it was started posting on SV before this Alternate History subforum was created) Some of you might know it from AH.com and our home...

Hello there Sufficient Velocity! Let me introduce myself, I'm travelling moon rabbit folklorist Kaguya Yakumo (Western Order) and currently I've been researching the old myths, legends and oral traditions of the Magic Empire East of the Sun, Himikoku, in preparation for the publishing of my next...

The Gregorian Calendar will call this year 1540; you will know it as the ninth year of the Tenbun Era, or "9 Tenbun." Since the time of the Ōnin War (1467-77), war has ravaged the land. This time, known to later generations as the Sengoku Jidai, the Age of Warring States, is well-named, for it...

Sengoku jidai, the age of the country at war. The reign of the old shogunate is over. In Kyushu, the old Otomo clan has given over to new ways, taking the price of abandoning the old gods so that they may use foreign weapons while the Shimazu clan comes to dominate the southern end of the...

Idol Jihen For the game For the anime So, unlike the game, the Idols have yet to dominate Japan's Diet. The game itself is set after the old school politcians have been deposed, and the former Idol PM has said she's gonna retire, triggering a mass scramble to be the next PM from nine...

So I know several people have mentioned wanting something like this, and I know that most series just don't have the level of traffic to really merit their own thread. Thus, I decided to make this one. Recently, in addition to my usual manga reading and shitty webnovel translation reading...

In this scenario in 1929 a story happens in which some well meaning Japanese farmers near a fishing village in Myagi Prefecture find a crashed alien escape pod containing an being and help it by providing it with some electricity and some information on the earth. It is on an important scouting...

Japan, the Country of Samurai. That was, of course, twenty years ago; long before the Amanto—foreigners from the sky—visited Earth and achieved peace with the good old 'Superior Firepower' diplomacy. Truly, if the world is an RPG, the Amanto Ambassador would have had an infinite amount of...

In this scenario a most unexpected scenario happens as an alien transport fleet happens and sends down to earth 8,192 drop pods (half of which of which being slightly more bulky than the rest and have one hatch, the other half being slightly smaller and have two hatches on either side), half of...

DAMN IT! WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO BICE?! I'VE DONE EVERYTHING! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY HOURS I WASTED?! *Sigh* I was about to do a super serious Let's Play series about WWII as Japan and all that. But you know what? Screw it! Let's have a cracky Let's Play of Their Finest Hour instead! Unlike...

It was a light at the end of the tunnel. Japan had developed something that could finally push back even the hated Abyssals, but Japan refused to deal with the Russian and Chinese navies. That didn't stop either of them. Disclaimer: The Kantai Collection franchise is owned by Kadokawa Games...

You are the leader of an organization in what is a fairly screwed up world. To be specific, a supernatural organization. Not that that means you have magic or anything on your side, no that would be too damn easy. Rather, you have to hunt down vampires, ghouls and a variety of other monsters...

Taiwan and Japan announce that they have come to an agreement by which Taiwan becomes a region of Japan with significant autonomy. The populace of both nations are happy with the arrangement. What happens?
