Were the German and Japanese peoples informed of each others military successes from Pearl Harbor onwards?

Did Goebbels propagandise Japanese success?

Welcome and thank you for your interesting question!
As a fresh army member myself I know how nice it feels to be answered and greeted!:+1::hugs:
The German Wochenschau newsreels were mostly focused on their own war but there are certainly some editions that show Japanese successes and Italian successes (which were not there in abundance😉).
Later on during 1945 Germany even tried to supply the Japanese through a type IX U-boat with much needed heavy metals and secret confidential information for building their own ‘wunderwaffen’.

Great content Norman!
Always appreciate your additions on this forum!
I wonder if the Japanese did the same? I imagine they were also active since the Tripartite Act was signed but I have not seen any evidence of that yet.
I feel the team from OOTFH have a great new topic to investigate!:+1:
