In the last months of World War II, 22-year-old Hiroo Onoda was drafted and received guerrilla warfare and intelligence training at a Japanese military school. His training did not align with traditional bushido, and the only order he received when dispatched to fight on Lubang Island in the Philippines was "never commit suicide," insisting that he must survive under any circumstances. Onoda's first mission upon landing on the island was to destroy the airport and dock to counter the American planes attempting to land. However, this mission failed, and American attacks forced Onoda and his teammates to retreat into the jungle. To their surprise, the war soon ended. While news of Japan's surrender flooded in, Onoda and his comrades viewed it as deceptive tactics. They hid in the jungle, surviving on banana peels, coconuts, and stolen rice. Even surrounded by snakes, insects, and rats, they refused to surrender due to hunger. Even when Japanese search parties found them, they were considered decoys to lure them out. Onoda firmly believed he was carrying out a secret mission to control the island before the Imperial Army returned, convinced that the war had not truly ended.
