    As a Filipino, I can say the animations were accurate. The style of the village houses, The fatigue uniforms of provincial cops at that era, the vehicle (M151 utility jeep), the weapons used by the cops, and the farmers and their farmlands. Although I think the jungle looks more like a scene from Call of Duty World at War than the actual jungle here in the Philippines. Anyway, your animating skills are improving with every video you uploaded with the excellent storytelling and pleasing details. I'm glad that such a history channel with this effort existed on a free platform available to everyone anytime :)

    Very nice, as always. One thing, though: I notice you didn't mention Teruo Nakamura (alias Lee Kuang-Hui), who actually held out longer than Onoda (18 December 1974 vs 9 March 1974), but didn't meet a hero's welcome on his return like Onoda did, because he was ethnically Taiwanese, not Japanese. Also, Nakamura was a private, while Onoda, being a lieutenant, automatically had higher prestige. This meant he was not well recieved by the Japanese. The Taiwanese people, by this point independent from Japan, also did not exactly welcome him with open arms, viewing him as a Japanese loyalist. However, he was the last soldier of WW2 to continue fighting, and his story deserves to be told.

    I remember as a teen in the '70s hearing his story as it was being broadcast all around the world, and watching his triumphant return to Japan on the news. This video kind of down plays it, but there were hundreds if not thousands to greet his return. Japan suffered a humiliating defeat and surrender: this gave them a little of the dignity back. This was a huge story back then.

The President of the country you have been terrorising has pardoned you for your act of bravery even if your were against his people, you feel ashamed and guilty like every other soldier but you are reminded that this was your job, you had no choice but to fight on.

He was not fighting against the US or Filipino military during all those years. He knew that the war was over, and refused the orders of his superiors to stop fighting. He enjoyed the power over the civilians that his violence provided. When confronted by Filipino police and military, he ran away. Does this behavior correspond with that of an honorable soldier in wartime, or that of a criminal murderer?

He moved back to Japan in 1984 and established the Onoda Shizen Juku which was a school for troubled youths. He also revisited Lubang in 1996 donating $10,000 to the local schools. He spent 3 months a year in a brazil and passed away from heart failure in Tokyo in 2014.

    It wasn't the right thing to do, but it's nothing short of incredible to not give up for almost 30 years of being alone. That level of loyalty and dedication is praiseworthy

    Everyone should give Supernova in the East by Dan Carlin a listen.
    At the moment it's a 4 part series podcast on the Japanese in WW2
    Part 5 is still to come. It's a marvel

    4:45 Norio Suzuki's Wikipedia article describes him as a chill lad whose ambition was to find "Lieutenant Onoda, a panda, and the Abominable Snowman, in that order". True to his aspirations, he died in an avalanche in 1986 while hiking in the Himalayas searching for the yeti.
    I think it's poetic that the one person capable of coaxing a highly determined and disciplined soldier out of his solo war was a polar-opposite character - an idyllic free spirit.
