On January 30, I was scheduled to
attend a party to celebrate the publication of my fellow SF writer, Fujio
Ishihara.
On the morning of January 30, I got a phone call from
my husband, Eto Yarai-nachi, saying he was on his way there
now, and he hung
up on me.
━━━ And half an hour later. ━━━

Now, the
manuscript, translated as "The Great China-Japanese War," has about ten pages of
text from
the beginning that completely ripped off Seidensticker's Japan
theory, And Story begins with a scene in which the
Prime Minister of Japan,
Makoyama Yamamoto, enters a tea room where Shogun is.

Japan had an army
in spite of the fact that it had declared its abandonment of war.Of course, it's
not an official one,
but a private army built in the foothills of Fujiyama,
in a parrot-singing field, by a group of former military personnel and warriors
who had participated in past wars.
The government had been giving them money
in secret in case of emergencies, but it wasn't enough,
so they had been
making money for the military by appearing in Toho's Godzilla movies and so on,
and secretly making
a connection with the public.

At times like these, the Japanese are so concerned about their own
progress that they don't pay attention
to the work they are about to do or
the way things are handled.
They are unconcerned after his own death. As the
proverb says, "The rest is just a matter of death.
