Shouldn't have an hero like that. Why not attempt to overthrow the govt, or is that too non ronin-like?
>>79452773
Gay as fuck but not a faggot. Pretty cool dude overall.

Because nobody would have followed him

That's fake right?

Yes. He was obsessed with drk themes like san sebastian's martydom and ritual suicide.
Effectively he modeled his own death after one of his own novels and short film : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriotism_(film)

He embraced fascist aesthetics but wasn't particularly political afaik. His suicide was more of a theatrical, artistic performance than anything else.

Yes, except he actually committed suicide by seppuku at a later date after a failed attempt at fomented a military coup.

Incredible film. Less than 30 minutes so everyone should watch.

I remember he did it actually because of other issues he had, the whole attempted coup thing was apparently an excuse
But he still unironically what he preached, so maybe there was some truth

>He finished his planned speech after a few minutes, returned to the commandant's office and committed seppuku. The assisting kaishakunin duty at the end of this ritual (to decapitate Mishima) had been assigned to Tatenokai member Masakatsu Morita, who was unable to properly perform the task. After several failed attempts at severing Mishima's head, he allowed another Tatenokai member, Hiroyasu Koga, to behead Mishima.
