Maybe it's because I've watched too many war movies, maybe it's because the movie depicts the Japanese army in World War II as a "normal" person instead of a devil, which seems a little uncomfortable!
If you don't know the history of World War II, you can't tell which side is the righteous side and which side is the evil side from the movie. Even from the point of view of the US military killing prisoners of war, you will still think that the US military is the villain! There are also no hot war scenes, and the fragmented gunfights are unspeakably exciting! The director will focus more on the human nature and warmth in the war, even if it is the Japanese army like the devil in the war (at least in the Chinese war)!
Whether it is a former Olympic champion, a military academy student studying abroad, or an ordinary citizen, as long as he goes to the battlefield, he must accept the cruel baptism of war!
