Japanese POWs (prisoners of war) during World War II generally did not fight for the Allies. Instead, they were held captive by Allied forces, primarily in the Pacific Theater. While there were some exceptions of individuals who may have defected or collaborated for various reasons, the majority of Japanese POWs were not integrated into Allied military efforts and instead faced harsh conditions in captivity.

What year was bad for the Japanese to fight in World War 2?

1944-1945 were execptionally bad for the Japanese because they were being defeated by the allies and their mainland Japan was being heavily bombed. The Japanese people were starving, losing their homes and businesses. The war was essentially over for them but the military leaders perssisted in the fight against the Allies. Once the atom bombs were dropped and the Russians were at their backdoor they finally surrendered. The bombings did horrible things to the Japanese and they suffered the consequences for many decades.
