Can anyone translate this Japanese sticker for me?
I've tried using Google translate on my phone, but I think the rising sun background is preventing it from working.
If anyone here can read Japanese, I'm curious to know what this bumper sticker says.

KAMIKAZE FIRST ATTACKER STICKER, seems to be more common for motorcycles.

Bet he's looking for a 70s big boat Chrysler to crash into .
My Dad was steamed when at 17, I got the tech job at Datsun , with bigger paychecks than his ( he was in the Navy in WW2 , went ashore / under fire in the landing boats from Tarawa to Iwo Jima )
Asking who owned the place I said a very Italian descent family
" There's the icing on the cake ' he said

To be blunt the sun with the rays was the Japanese Imperial Navy. It is not allowed in Japan and is in very poor taste. I have been to Japan at least 20 times and have never seen it there.
66 stroker, almost done.
67 basket case, paint coming soon.

You must not have seen Asahi beer in your travels then, as it’s on the can, and it’s still their Naval flag. There is a movement to get it banned though.Curtis wrote: Mon Jul 11, 2022 3:01 pm To be blunt the sun with the rays was the Japanese Imperial Navy.

I remember when no one wanted the 1500s......

That would be interesting to see since they are very touchy about it and make a big point of self defense force. I hardly drink so it is not surprising I haven't seen it. And their history books are very careful to not include many things. Here we just 'white washed' the history and more and more we see the full history come out now.
I met a woman that was riding in a taxi and because of the way he was driving she asked him if was a kamikaze. He stopped the car and threw her out.
If you want to see some really funny uses of english in Japan and elsewhere go to engrish.com. Whoops, just checked it and it says it is not safe.

Geezu, I can't believe they're still using that flag. The worst thing to try to translate is foreign words they have made in to a japanese word.
