The Revolt
Part I Love across the ocean
Sendai, April, 1932
Everybody rise!
Come in.
This is Second Lieutenant Komatsu.
Captain, there's a deserter.
What?
Ito, you should know where he is.
I... don't know, sir.
Do all of you know that desertion is a felony?
Listen up!
If any of you know where he is, you are just as guilty.
Ten-Hut!
Captain, reporting, sir.
At ease.
Tell me if any of you know where Mizoguchi is.
Anybody?
If he is just AWOL, it wouldn't be as serious.
Captain.
Do you know?
No sir, I don't know where he is but I remember
he was reading a letter from his sister over and over.
Captain.
I am responsible for his action, so I will take care of this matter.
I am responsible for this company.
Komatsu.
Form a search team with 12 men including Sgt. Harada.
I'll take command.
Captain.
You don't have to report to anyone about this yet.
I will let you know when to do so.
Sergeant!
Over there!
Go get him.
Please forgive me.
I am Kaoru, his sister.
I am sorry about the trouble my brother has caused.
You told him, didn't you?
I wrote a letter to him.
You're so foolish!
I am going to be sent away as a whore today.
Captain.
We found him.
Where?
He is at Inume Pass. The sergeant is chasing him.
Please let me go with you!
Kaoru.
Mizoguchi is going to die to save his honor.
Everybody watch the last of a deserter.
Do you have any last words to say?
Put the muzzle in your mouth!
Touch the trigger.
Pull it!
Shoot!
Let me help you, then!
Sergeant. Please forgive him.
May 15,1932
Prime Minister's Office
Fifty men consisting of naval and army cadets and
a group of young farmers attacked
the prime minister, the cabinet minister,
the Seiyu political group and the police.
Why don't you take your shoes off and sit down.
Let's talk and we'll understand each other.
No discussion! Shoot him!
Their "Showa Restorationโ plan failed.
The unsuccessful coup shocked the nation.
It brought confrontation within Army executives.
I'm upset that some young officers and cadets ignored us,
attacking the prime minister to take over political affairs.
We must gather our nation's forces to fight against them.
The government, economic circle and the amy
need to work together, and we might have to sacrifice citizens.
Wait.
You only denounced the young officers, but
do you really understand the present political corruption?
That's right!
The politicians forced the people to suffer in poverty
for their own greed.
The army should be the core to rebuild the nation.
Otherwise our country will perish.
Unless that point is shown clearly,
young officers who are naive and loyal to the country,
will be more confused.
They killed the prime minister entrusted by the Emperor.
That's resistance against the Emperor.
We must court-martial them as their punishment.
So the nation will know what's right and wrong.
Come in.
Captain Miyagi here.
What do you want?
Colonel.
Let me be one in defense of Mizoguchi at the court-martial.
He defied army regulations and he also killed the sergeant.
That's serious treason against the country.
How can you defend him?
Maybe he is, but he had a reason to do such thing.
Are you talking about his sister being sold?
Yes.
Mizoguchi lost his mother when his was four,
then his sister raised him after his mother died...
Miyagi.
He is not the only one who has a story like that.
There are many men, maybe thousands throughout the army.
The officers used that excuse to kill the prime minister.
Are you one of them?
I am a soldier.
I have no interest in politics.
That's fine.
Captain Miyagi.
National finance needs to be stable before the people.
To enrich a country, you need to have a powerful army.
You should remind your men of that.
You are the commander of the company.
You'll be asked to take on that responsibility.
Prepare for it.
I am.
That's the money you asked for.
Forgive me for my selfishness.
A thousand yen is a lot. What is it for?
It's better that you don't know.
All right.
I don't think you will waste it on a woman, will you?
No, I will not.
Your mother's seventh memorial is soon.
You should take a leave and come home.
After examination of the case,
this court finds the accused guilty of the crime.
He is sentenced to the death penalty.
June 5,1932. Third Division Court-martial.
Captain Miyagi.
Your appeal for Mizoguchi has been rejected.
He will be executed as scheduled
at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
You need to organize a firing squad and take command for it.
That's all.
Ready, aim.
Long live out Emperor!
I'm sorry.
Take this money.
Your brother was worrying about you.
It was his wish. Please take it.
Captain Keisuke, Miyagi shall be transferred to
the 75th Infantry Regiment in Korea.
Issued by the War Division on July 18, 1932.
I shall be transferred to the 75th Infantry Division,
on the date of July 18, 1932.
You've really taken care of your men, so
it must be hard for you to leave the company.
But the defense in Northern Korea is a very important duty.
Keep that in mind and do your best.
Yes, sir.
Oh, you are not to accept any farewell parties.
Yes, sir.
Stop marching!
To your left!
Attention for Captain Miyagi!
The commander ordered to not see me off!
We are not here to see you off, sir.
We are just doing our training out here, sir.
Blood is filing with zeal, ready to flow for Japan.
The color shows the blaze of our fighting spirit.
Our arms are offered to support the country.
Our bodies are dedicated to establish the foundation.
We are the rookies who are ready to fight.
We are the rookies who have a kind heart.
Northern Korea, November, 1932
Northern Korea, November, 1932 Korea was under the rule of Japan at that time,
Korea was under the rule of Japan at that time,
so it was unofficially governed by Japan.
75th Infantry Regiment so it was unofficially governed by Japan.
75th Infantry Regiment
Here is a report from our men.
They are being attacked by guerrillas.
How many in their force?
There are about thirty of them. We don't need reinforcements.
That's all.
Thanks.
You should use this warmer.
No, thank you, sir.
Keep it.
Thank you, sir.
We are leaving for Kainei at 16:30.
Thank you for your treat.
I understand your request.
SASAIDA Iwao
I'll let Park help you.
Thank you.
We'll hold a party for you tonight at my place.
So plan it well.
Thank you.
The colonel appreciates your cooperation.
I haven't seen him lately. Is he doing well?
Yes.
That's good.
Don't think about war tonight.
Have fun and refresh yourselves for tomorrow.
You are free until tomorrow morning.
It's the colonel's gift to everybody.
Drink a lot and lay girls until you can't walk.
Girls? It's been such a long time! Thank you.
You work hard at the front line.
Have a drink.
We only have pretty ones.
You need to pick a girl before the music ends!
I'll pick this one.
My father died leaving a big debt.
Sister...
Kazuko? Come in.
Good evening.
Thanks.
What's wrong? Don't leave so soon.
Aren't we old friends? Ouch!
You could have a different life.
I could, but it's easier for me this way.
Or do you think I should have died?
You still can change your life.
You.
This is a pass for you.
The guards might check you, so be careful.
I gotit.
Captain Miyagi. What happened with your girl?
I am going to check.
I have a pass.
Get out of the truck.
You are under arrest.
You released Park?
It's not surprising.
Is that true?
I interrogated him but it's his first offense,
and he has been working with us.
I'm somy for doing this without your permission.
What should I do?
Well, can you forget the incident, save the major's face?
I'm sorry, but I insist on charging Park.
We should let the military police handle this matter.
Don't forget to have them arrest Sasaida, too.
Was the woman's name Kaoru Mizoguchi?
She tried to kill herself last night.
She is not allowed to kill herself until she clears the debt.
So, she's being punished for it.
Colonel, can you do something for her?
Captain Miyagi must be worried. Please help her.
All right, I'll try.
Hello?
December, 1932
Hunting guerrillas at the Korea-Manchuria Border
Captain, when is the medication supply coming?
I requested it to the headquarters.
Are they going to abandon us to die?
Hang in there. I'll send you to headquarters soon.
Captain, this is the bullet that hit me in the shoulder.
The guerrillas are using our weapons.
They killed our men with our own bullets.
Don't talk anymore.
Ato, don't die here! Your mother and kids are waiting.
Let's go back to Japan together!
Captain, what honor are we dying for?
Enemy attack!
Get down!
Are you OK?
More bullets!
We don't have anymore.
Mom...
More bullets!
No more.
Bullets.
No more!
Ready?
Let's go.
Present arms to the dead.
The Japanese army is doomed.
We have no medicine, no bullets, and no food.
The only thing we still have is the loyalty for our country.
We are left to die far from home.
For whom do we fight and die?
The Japanese army is corrupt but nobody hears my anger.
It is the silent appeal of all the soldiers.
We must rid ourselves of the corrupt leaders who are
jeopardizing the safety of the nation.
If you have no desire to do it, I will attempt it myself.
I was given life to dedicate myself to my country.
January 1, 1933.
The Sino-Japanese hostilities started.
The people were afraid it might become another war.
March, 1934, General Mizunuma was assigned
as Chief Military Affairs.
His position was one that encouraged the young officers.
A month later, Mitsubishi heavy industries was founded.
Preparation for war was spurred by this group.
The suppressed rage of the general public finally exploded.
The demonstration for rice, and it shook the government.
July 3. Big-scale political corrupt was exposed.
Minoru Saito surrendered his cabinet, but
people no longer trusted the government.
Reflecting their uneasiness, on November 20, 1934,
a planned coup was exposed at the military academy.
Some said it was a conspiracy by their opponents, but
the truth was revealed.
September, 1935
In September, 1935, General Mitamura was fired.
Internal dissension for power was revealed.
People were afraid of the move toward war.
Part II Endlessly falling snow
November, 1935
Well...
I'm Yoko Takami, his fiancรฉe.
Come in.
Please come in.
Looks delicious.
One, two, three, four, five, six. Six people...
You, your husband and me. Nine of us.
Nine...
It's easy to divide into eight portions, but nine is hard.
Let's just cut for two now.
What about for everybody.
They are still talking. Let's eat it now.
It looks delicious.
You act like a lady but sometimes you're so bold.
We must act now.
We'll kill the corrupt politicians and leaders.
We can form our own cabinet
and it's the only way to save Japan.
It's too early to do anything, just yet.
I agree.
Do you guys want to ignore the fact?
Who said ignore.
Don't act without thinking.
What?
Unlike you guys, we are in a small town.
We feel so frustrated not doing anything about it.
Politicians are living like kings, but farmers and laborers are
not able to eat meals.
Is this right to be happening in a country?
What is your opinion?
Unless our minds are united, we will not succeed.
Mr. Nogami told me you were anurse in Korea
when you met him. That's wonderful.
He talks too much for a soldier.
He respects Captain Miyagi sincerely.
He came to my house and drank with my father.
He said he will die for Captain Miyagi.
My father is a merchant, so we don't know how soldiers live.
We were kind of shocked at what he said.
Even if there is a war going on in Manchuria,
why do they always think about dying?
I wonder...
Good night.
Kaoru.
I'm going to Tottori tomorrow. Please come with me.
Yes.
Good night.
Good night.
Come on. Humry.
Aren't you Ranko? Seg, it's really you.
It's me, We met at Dairen.
It wasn't me.
Did you forget me? It's been a long time.
Stop it.
Hey, don't run away. Wait.
You haven't changed.
Is there a problem with my wife?
That's your wife?
Yes.
Tottori
It. Colonel Kanzaki taught Miyagi at the academy.
He was a loyal leader to the group of revolutionaries.
The opinions of the young officers are divided.
Some say now is the time. The others say we should wait.
It's the same here.
What do you think?
I think it's time.
I think so, too.
We have to do something to unite the minds of men.
I'll kill General Mizunuma, Chief of Military affairs.
He should take the blame for the corruption of the army.
I'm sorry I can't rise with you,
but I'll be the trigger, so please take care o the rest.
Miyagi.
Yes.
It's my job to kill Mizunuma.
You need to unite the young officers and
complete The Showa Restoration.
You have a wife and children, Colonel.
I have none, not even a wife.
You guys are having fun!
Do you have any children?
You must be lonely.
Soldiers hardly lay home.
Miyagi,
when you kill him, make sure he is dead.
Shall we go?
What's wrong?
Why?
Why did you bring me here with you?
Do you want me only as a cover-up?
Thank you very much for taking care of me so long.
Let's go back to Tokyo.
Return to Tokyo? What's there?
I cook, clean the house and sleep alone at night.
Do you think my body is dirty because I was whore?
Buy me with this money. If you want me to return with you,
make love to me, Please...
Will you go back with me?
I want you to stay by me.
Are you scared of dying now?
What? Say that again!
I don't care about us, but if we fail,
what will happen to our men?
They are just obeying our orders.
We can't act so hastily.
What do you mean?
You are saying we don't think about our men?
We are going to rise to save them.
Our men fight for the country, but the families are so poor.
They sell their daughters and hang themselves.
Small businesses are going bankrupt,
and laborers strike everywhere.
On the other hand, politicians and capitalists get richer.
Honma, Shiratori, Iwasaki.
It's like you are betraying us trying to postpone our plan.
What?
Betraying? What?
Miyagi, what do you think?
You'll have no regrets if you risk your men's lives?
The May 15th incident was a revolt of individuals.
Ours is different.
If we fail, the Emperor's troops will be disgraced.
But I think it's time to rise.
I think so, too.
What? General Mizunuma killed?
I'm M.P. Sergeant Shima.
There is a request for you to come in for killing the General.
Come with me.
Rebuild the country? Showa restoration?
You make me laugh.
Young fanatics like you can never make it.
I hear the men of your company will die for you.
Nobody say that kind of thing nowadays.
General Mizunuma heard it and wanted to see you.
He may have been on your side but you killed him.
Corporal Makino here.
Come in.
General Hirotsu is here.
All right.
We can talk when I come back.
I live across from your house.
As you already know, 1 followed you to Tottori.
It was during that trip you realized I'm your tail.
Well, I kept watching you. It's my job, so forgive me.
You didn't go there to tempt It. Colonel Kanzaki.
You wanted to kill the General with your own hands.
If the young officers want to revolt, let them.
That will give us the reason to kill them all.
Captain Miyagi is respected by those officers.
What if he dies accidentally during the M.P. interrogation?
I'll take care of the rest.
Tonight, It. Colonel Kanzaki's wife killed herself and children.
Kanzaki had his mind set, but not his family.
They had a murderer in their family. I pity that.
General Hirotsu's order?
No questions allowed.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
The man upstairs. Please.
He's dying.
Please help him.
Please save his life.
I'm begging you!
T will kill the M.P.
Wait. This is their trap for us to make a move.
I don't care.
Who's afraid?
Stop it.
Mrs. Miyagi is back.
Don't you understand?
I do, but we have to wait.
The M.P. tried to kill the Captain.
Can you just watch him die and not doing anything?
Please go home.
If you guys didn't exist, this wouldn't have happened to him.
Mrs. Miyagi.
Sorry I'm late.
This is from the boss.
Captain Miyagi is tough and so is his wife.
She hasn't slept for three days already.
We'll probably see tonight if he is going to live or die.
Is there anything?
The date has been set for the first division to Manchuria.
In six months?
The big shots think sending those young officers away
will settle everything.
Sarge.
Do you think they will obey the order?
We're both sons of poor farmers.
We couldn't eat rice until we joined the ammy, right?
I buried my sister yesterday.
How old was she?
Only eighteen, yet she slaved at a brothel in Osaka.
She died of tuberculosis. That's so stupid.
If I wasn't a M.P., I may have joined Captain Miyagi.
Dear.
Miyagi.
Captain Miyagi.
Captain.
First Infantry Division to Manchuria
General Hirotsu as Vice Minister
January, 1936
Congratulations, General Hirotsu.
Would you tell me your opinion, General Mitamura?
I don't know what you're planning,
but if something is to happen, the sooner the better.
At this rate, Japan will be doomed.
I'll let my men know your opinion, sir.
Whatever you do, do it with determination.
That's loyalty to the Emperor.
Mitamura and I will handle the rest.
This wine is good like the name "Valiant.โ
Drink it with your friends.
To the Showa restoration!
Your wedding?
Her parents disagree, but we are getting married tonight.
Only thirty days before the restoration.
We'll accomplish the Showa restoration,
and have a happy family like yours, Captain.
Here's to the couple's happiness!
Congratulations.
Thanks.
Cheers.
Miyagi, we'll succeed.
I can believe it as I see the young men's hopeful faces.
They have their own way of living.
Two of us should be enough to die for responsibility.
I am not thinking of living after killing people.
Nobody following us.
What is it?
The young officers decided to take action tonight.
Are you sure?
Captain Miyagi met General Mitamura and Kajiyama.
When will they rise?
I don't know, but we should take precautions.
That's not necessary.
But...
What can those men do?
Why don't you join us?
Master Keisuke! Come inside.
When was it? You were five or six years old.
I took you fishing at night,
and you caught a cold and got pneumonia.
The doctor gave up on you and your mother was mad.
She pounded my chest over and over.
She said she wouldn't forgive me if you died.
She died and left me alone.
Keisuke.
Isn't there any way of returning?
I'm sorry.
Your mother planted his oak when you were bomn.
The tree is big now.
Would you like some cake?
Enjoy.
Thanks.
Can I try this kimono on you?
I should know your size but I just want to make sure now.
What's the matter?
I'm going to use your troops.
After everything is done, I'm going to slit my belly.
Now I am sure.
Miyagi's first regiment, Honma's first regiment.
And Tatehara's Imperial guards. The three can join this week.
They have to gather soldiers, weapons and communication.
Those three must be on duty together.
Today is February 22.
22, 23, 24. It'll take three days for preparation.
They are going to do it after the 25th.
Get me new boots.
Are you going to wear new boots for night field work?
All right, I'll just wear the usual boots.
Yoko, don't forget.
Make our family register on the 26th.
Yes, I won't forget.
A beautiful dawn is coming to our country.
There you go again.
I will make our children happy under the new establishment.
That's fine.
I'm serious.
Good morning ma'am.

Captain Miyagi with 120 men
3:30 p.m. Revolutionary army headquarters
How did the meeting go?
Did they approve us? Was the War Minister present?
Gather in the meeting hall.
The Minister announced,
The Emperor has noted your prospectus of indignation.
We acknowledge your action was based on loyalty.
We grieve at the present state of the country.
All military advisers unanimously agree to promote
improvement as cited in the prospectus.
As for the other items, we will wait for the Emperor's decision.
General...
Can we consider we have the Emperor's approval?
That's right.
Are yen sure?
Yes.
Miyagi.
Well done.
But the announcement wasn't true.
The Emperor did not read the prospectus.
The army bosses were so shocked of their action
that they tried to flatter the officers
with this false announcement.
Mitamura arid Kajiyama were just puppets.
The truth was when the Emperor heard the news,
he got very upset of what happened.
Those barbarous officers killed our loyal subjects,
their conduct is unforgivable. To kill those who I trusted
means to strangle me slowly with cotton.
If the rebels disobey their superiors, I will take command.
I will use our guards to subdue the mutiny.
The situation totally flipped with the Emperor's words.
The young officers became mutineers overnight.
Tokyo was under martial law.
The Emperor orders us to subdue the mutiny.
Resistance is disloyalty.
They are rebels. We have the right to use our troops.
General Mitamura, General Kajiyama. They respect you.
You're responsible...
Responsible?
I'm only a military adviser now.
The officer's sincerity is undeniable but
we have the direct order from the Emperor,
we must obey to subdue them by force.
But the Japanese army shouldn't fight itself.
We should avoid that situation.
Are we going to obey the Imperial order?
General Mitamura, General Kajiyama...
You do agree to subdue the mutineers, right?
The leaders tried to resolve the situation by
forcing the officers to kill themselves.
Headquarters has asked for dispatch of troops.
They are coming to Tokyo from neighboring prefectures.
The navy is sending the first fleet, they were put ashore.
Unless you kill yourself, we all will suffer fighting within.
I need to see General Mitamura and Kajiyama.
You fool! After the Imperial order was received,
the generals left the case to us.
Don't you understand we are trying to save your honor by
letting you die before being attacked as mutineers.
What is this?
Soldiers, it's not too late. Retum to your regiments.
Anyone who resists is a rebel and will be killed.
Your family will be treated as traitors.
Martial law headquarters.
They can't fool me with this crap!
I don't want to...
Don't be cheated.
They refused the Emperor's order.
We must use weapons to subdue the mutiny.
Citizens are urged to remain at home.
Don't listen to groundless rumors.
That's army headquarters' fourth announcement.
The people near the skirmishes must be careful as follows:
If you hear shots, you need to cover yourself and...
Troops to subdue the mutiny
Listen, soldiers!
This is an order! Issued directly by the Emperor.
We know that you just blindly obeyed your superiors,
you tried your best believing your leaders beliefs, but
our Emperor was given
the order to return to your regiments.
If there is any attempt to resist, you will considered traitors.
It. Komori. Have them take off their coats and form up.
Salute to Captain Miyagi.
Under the command of It. Komori,
you will return to your regiment.
Moriguchi, fix your second button.
Sony, sir.
Move on.
Captain Miyagi.
I won't die until I clarify the truth to the public at trial.
