have been given by a character acted by Watanabe Ken, as “totally irrelevant and
gratuitous.” The DoD even threatened to withdraw its cooperation from the production;
“If this is an apology or questioning of the decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
that will be a showstopper for us,” wrote one senior DoD member.
