I like how they don’t shy away from at least acknowledging the existence of the war or the problems of the salaryman lifestyle. It’s not going to get into the truly dark stuff, but it’s still not what I expected to see in an ad from a Japanese HR company.

Still pretty nostalgic tone about the whole thing though, kind of like how you see people justify hazing.
