IT COULD BE ARGUED the day of the capitulation or surrender of Japan in Augustr of l945, following the atomic bomb attacks. Given the national culture where all forms of both Martial (Kamikaze, Kaiten (suicide submarines) and other types (hari-Kari) Seppuku, of suicide are deemed okay it wouod not be surprising. some members of the high nobility such as Prince Konoye turned in their life for a measly 8mm pistol round in the back of the head, or thereabouts. War begats violence, there was a genuine suicide wave in Japan following the capitulation.
