Japanese in Brazil and Brazilians in Japan

Brazzil.com: Japanese in Brazil and Brazilians in Japan

This is an interesting tidbit:

...Page reveals that "the Japanese community in Brazil were celebrating the 'report' that the Japanese navy had sunk the entire Allied fleet in the Sea of Japan," when really Emperor Hirohito had just announced Japan's surrender after the bombings at Hiroshima and Nagasaki...Furthermore, the kachigumi ("victory group"), a fanatical clan of Japanese that refused to acknowledge Japan's World War Two defeat, terrorized members of its own Japanese community in 1946, killing fourteen Japanese citizens and justifying those deaths as a victory against the makegumi (the "defeatist group")...

Interesting. I did wonder what the deal with all the Brazilian shops was. Thanks for that!
