Reminds me of one of the few things that bothered me about Full Metal Panic! The American sub commander envoking "Remember Pearl Harbor" around the year 2000. No only against a submarine that isn't a Japanese national vessel, but also he clearly wasn't born until after the Second World War (an average Attack Submarine Commander would not be in this 60s or older and still look like that). I know that world is different, but it is clear that the allies won World War II and that Japan was defeated more or less as per history. The radical changes don't seem to start until the 1980s....though there may have been other changes as China in divided instead of Korea.
Just the invoking of Pearl Harbor seemed way out of left field. Yet I've seen it mentioned in news comments against the Japanese from time to time (the worst being after last year's earthquake...before the number of deaths skyrocketed past 3,000).
