近日，日本靖国神社与宝可梦公司合作举办儿童活动的消息引发争议。靖国神社因供奉二战甲级战犯、美化侵略历史而长期受到国际社会批评，尤其中国、韩国等曾遭受日本侵略的国家强烈反对其任何形式的正常化行为。此次以宝可梦这一知名IP吸引儿童参与，被批评为“淡化历史罪行”和“向年轻一代渗透错误历史观”。宝可梦公司随后回应称，活动仅为娱乐目的，未支持任何政治立场，但仍未能平息舆论质疑。事件折射出日本部分势力试图通过文化软实力重塑历史记忆的倾向，也再次凸显了历史问题在东亚地区的敏感性。
Recently, the collaboration between Japan’s Yasukuni Shrine and Pokémon Company to organize a children’s event has sparked controversy. Yasukuni Shrine, which enshrines Class-A war criminals from World War II and glorifies Japan’s history of aggression, has long been criticized by the international community, particularly by countries like China and South Korea that suffered from Japanese invasion. The use of the popular Pokémon IP to attract children was condemned as an attempt to “whitewash historical crimes” and “instill a distorted historical perspective into the younger generation.” The Pokémon Company later clarified that the event was purely for entertainment and not endorsing any political stance, but failed to quell public criticism. This incident reflects efforts by certain forces in Japan to reshape historical memory through cultural soft power, while highlighting the ongoing sensitivity of historical issues in East Asia.
