The Japanese soldiers in the film are all hungry and skinny, and they have no good food supplies and medical care. The so-called hospital is nothing but a place where death is prolonged. The male protagonist had tuberculosis, and no one dared to ask for it. The order he received turned out to be self-termination. The most interesting thing is that the reason why the male protagonist was not eaten was because he was sick. You must know that the German fascists have surrendered at the end of the war, and the Japanese army is lingering on all fronts. The whole trend of the war is doomed to be defeated. It is only a matter of time, but Japan will not surrender, and the United States has to use the atomic bomb. Like a victim, he never reflected that the reason for such a tragic outcome was not the bitter fruit of his own making. It is estimated that Japan never thought that the imperial army would be defeated one day. For a country that refuses to admit its wrong history, can you say that it is sincerely repenting? ! If you look at Germany's introspection on the war after World War II, you will know that what Japan has done is far from enough.
