Showa marked the reign of Emperor Hirohito who led Japan during its harsh colonisation of much of Asia in the 1930s, entry into World War II and defeat in 1945, and later the post-war years when the nation rose again to become the second largest economy in the world.
Analysts point out the current Showa renaissance is remembered most for the best times of this period -- Japan's envied advance into high-technology manufacturing and, especially for the older generation like Yokokawa, the nationalistic appeal of the powerful Showa Emperor's army that swept into the Korean peninsula, China, and most of South-east Asia.
For example, the Showa Lifestyle Museum, which opened here in 1999 and is a converted stately home, has a wide collection of posters, magazines and other paraphernalia that carry photographs of Japanese film stars, pop singers and records of old western jazz artists and famous musical productions.

 SHOWA
In the immediate aftermath of the war, many believed that the Showa Emperor was an evil mastermind behind the war while others claimed that he was simply a powerless figurehead.
The health of the new emperor was weak, which prompted the shift in political power from the old oligarchic clique of "elder statesmen" (genro) to the parliament and the democratic parties.
It was not until 1914 that the colored carp were seen outside of Niigata when a batch were sent to the Great Tokyo Exhibition, and some of these were made a gift to the Emperor Taisho's son.

 Hirohito   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The Showa era, as his reign is called, witnessed dramatic transformations in Japanese life, including the status of the Emperor himself.
The imperial messages of Aug. 15, 1945, concluding hostilities in WORLD WAR II, and of Jan. 1, 1946, declaring that the Emperor is a mortal, were epoch-making events in the history of Japan.
Thus, during the long and eventful reign of the Showa Emperor, Japan emerged from a period of military expansion, culminating in national tragedy, and entered a new period of international cooperation during which it became one of the world's three greatest economic powers.

 American Metal Market: Japan's Showa Denko sees aluminum 'balanced.' - supply and demand balance forecasted for aluminum
The report prepared by Showa Denko's aluminum division projects total world supply of primary aluminum this year at 15,419,000 metric tons against total demand of 15,440,000 tons, or a slight shortfall of 21,000 tons.

The report is projecting a continued downtrend in imports of ordinary grade primary aluminum from the United States which are expected to drop to 291,000 tons in 1994 from last year's 406,000 tons, while imports from Russia are forecast to triple to 169,000 tons over last year's 54,000 tons.

 History: Causes of the Showa Restoration
Sonno joi, "Restore the Emperor and expel the Barbarians," was the battle cry that ushered in the Showa Restoration in Japan during the 1930's.Footnote1 The Showa Restoration was a combination of Japanese nationalism, Japanese expansionism, and Japanese militarism all carried out in the name of the Showa Emperor, Hirohito.
The transition that Japan made from its parliamentary government of the 1920's to the Showa Restoration and military dictatorship of the late 1930s was not a sudden transformation.
During the Showa Restoration, ten years later, these agreements were often cited as examples of where the quasi-democratic Japanese government had gone astray.Footnote19 The time preceding the Showa Restoration appeared at first glance to be the image of a nation transforming itself into a full-fledged democracy.
