BBC News Japan WWII soldier who refused to surrender, dies

Omg , 30 years of his life by himself in the jungle and you see his face looking happy like nothing happened

Patriot, Hero, Warrior.

Fascinating murderer story

Even he, the most loyal man of his country, was disappointed by what his country has become

Old
Handsom
But
Young
Beast

He is not a hero he is a rapist

当時の日本の、そして日本人の国に対する「忠誠心」の高さを物語る。利己的な日本人は極少数。多くは国民の為、みんなの為に戦った。そのため略奪や仲間割れも少なかった。日本の強みはそこにある。

He saw anime and moved to Brazil. Makes sense.

that guy could of made a hell of a host for a survival show

"The war is over when I SAY it's over" - Lt. Onoda.

I wish he didn't die so I could have killed him

if the price of being a hero means killing , stealing and making other innocent lives miserable is a crap! the audacity not even coming out in full conscience when he wrote his book. i think he is burning in hell now

Our people hate Japanese, but I tell you what, I salute Hiroo Onoda. He is a real soldier; a real soldier is absolutely loyal to his country. Loyalty is a rare commodity these days.

Maybr he refused to come out bc of his shame for killing the local civilians

ご冥福をお祈りします 🙏

Based

Amazing skills to survive as long as he did with no medical care. Living in the jungle lot of things that can happen although he did steal from local people.

I read a guy named Suzuki found him. A Japanese hippy

this man doesn't deserve to live fully for he has claimed 30 innocent lives

RIP TO YOU SIR ONODA
The book written by onoda he only wrote the good side but the bad side is not written the bad side is that he killed the people who live at the bottom of the mountain and they are still civilians and the children are afraid of him and the people in that island where Onoda was no longer going to the mountain because Onoda would kill them and what's worse, Onoda went down the mountain and went to the small town to steal their animals and he killed many civilians because it was night he goes down the mountain to steal food, animals and so on

Respect for what? Murdering innocent people just to steal food from them long after the war so he could survive? Never admitting the terrible crimes he did... well thats the japanese we all know

Japan: Yo, the war is over. Y'all can go home now
Onoda: I smell cap

Not a fcking hero

Japanese soldiers killed many Filipinos during ww2. They destroyed our country. Never Again. Never forget. Onoda not Hero.

He made the lives of the locals in lubang miserable and yet he was praised being a hero.

he killed too many locals in lubang island.

He should write on his book that he killed innocent people too.

No Hero hes a killer

There should be a movie on him

Refused to surrender and didn't care about the other soldiers .. hid because he was afraid .. for 29 years. If he wasn't afraid he would not have hid that long. He would have figured out a plan to help his fellow soldiers./officers.

Isn't this the piece of shit who murder a couple farmers that were trying to help him and told him the war was over fuck this jap.

He is a hero to his country

Respect too this soldier he did not leave until the mission was over I’m mad they made him surrender that’s a real one he’s really a symbol of Japan

Such strange history

After coming out of the jungle, I heard he married and had children. He was indeed a loyal soldier and a real man.

They killed many civilians to continue to survive alone. Don't forget that. They even killed anyone presumed to be a threat. While a true soldier to the end. He and his men did in fact willing commit war crimes under the justification of war. Even after the war was lost. The sad irony is he survived but all his men died. I don't know what to make of that, his men knew it was over. Yet he for years continued to pillage raid and rape the local population.

imagine going to war by a militaristic empire and come back to a country softened by anime simps

Tenno Henkai Banzai 🙌

I saw the movie they didn't include that moment that they cheers for him.

imagine the emotion his mother had
i just watched the movie onoda 10000 nights so amazing and inspiring

Glad to see this clip and how he clearly got a little bit of normalcy again in later life after years of turmoil and survival with his apartment and whatnot. Never knew exactly his state of life

a hero who made his parents wait 29 years, 29 years they thought he was dead and now they’re too old to enjoy him. God bless this hero, i wish every son would torture their parents like that, all for blind fanatical service to a government. Bravo sir, well done.

People forget about that this old piece of shit rape and murder innocent civilians during the world war

Onoda now: wow our empire did good

he wasnt a hero or a bad person, the act thath he was a soldier on the enemy side makes him kind of a bad guy but with his knowlage he teaches childern so he isnt a bad guy

I mean there could technically still be other people like this we just still have to find them

If every soldier would be same with him that would make the army a weak and uncontrollable douchebags. If a soldier not listening the orders he is not worth anything. I would not go back to take him. Guerilla warfare deserves die like a guerilla. So leave him there. National hero ? National undisciplined example lol

Japanese Gigachad in real life

Lucky pardoned murderer

Salute
Im a Filipino so what they did to our is just way cruel but history is history let be it
