WWII Memorabilia

What is the attitude of present day Japanese citizens about WWII?

After asking a question about the Germans and WWII, I thought of something that I am totally ignorant of. The Japanese were just as brutal (in many ways) and it within 60 years ago. Has that much really changed? Is there any sort of remorse by the Japanese for what they did?
And don't comment about the bomb thing. I think it's fair to say that saved the lives of Americans and Japanese that would have been lost if we had of invaded the island.

Well, all of them that I have encountered think that the entire thing was "overplayed" by the Americans and that "it wasn't that much of a big deal" ...... EXCEPT that the United States dropped atomic bombs on them. THAT and that alone is the only evil the Japanese public see in the entire incident. They don't care that their people tortured and murdered Millions of people and committed more war crimes than the NAZIS did. They don't care that they trained millions of their own women and children to be ready to attack U.S. forces on the beach with bamboo spears and be sacrificed like so many cattle. They only speak of the Atomic Bombs. They teach almost NOTHING about the Japanese actions in WWII in their public schools.
