The Eternal Zero Page #6

Synopsis: 26 year old Kentaro discovers his biological grandfather died as a kamikaze pilot during WW2.

There follows the story of Japanese Navy Air Service Platoon Sergeant Miyabe, as told by four of the men who knew him best. Intricately woven the film follows him through Pearl Harbor, the Midway Battle and the Battle for Okinawa. When he finally loses his will and respect for life he enrolls in the Special Attack Force and passes his responsibility to return to his wife and infant daughter on to a younger pilot. An engaging tale of a man brave enough to challenge accepted ways of thinking.

I shouldn't have left you alone.

If only I'd found you earlier.

I wonder

who that man was,

Matsuno...

In years to come,

what kind of country will Japan be?

I'll survive no matter what,

to return to my wife and child.

For me, survival is more important

than anything.

Fingers crossed, then,

that you get that chance.

Izaki, don't you get it?

We must endure the unendurable

to pave the way for a grand peace.

Don't quit on me!

Miyabe...

Miyabe...

Don't leave me, Miyabe.

To safeguard the Imperial State.

Miyabe!

Miyabe-san...

Please forgive me.

Biggest coward in the whole damn Navy.

Why did Miyabe join the Kamikaze?

He should've been the one to survive.

That's what it means,

to have survived a time of war.

For men of my generation,

that was an ample declaration of love.

Miyabe did it.

He fulfilled his promise.
