What happened to Japan?

Nah he died for no good reason at all other than he got off on the idea.

2 bombs

We should've finished the job....

If I recall he offed himself but in such a manner to cover the fact that he was living in a time where no men like him exist now

Fucking Post-War Nips yo

yes stupid leaf, very based

Extreme manlet.

Sort of. He lived honorably but it's not clear whether he pursued this philosophy for fetish reasons for not.

he was a gay dude who went to gay bars. ever since he was a kid he dreamed of a heroic death so he used a "coup" as an excuse to do it.

He did legitimately believe that stuff though. Not too sure what he vouched for.

Literally Japanese milo that wasn't a complete flaming faggot.

Pretty much yeah

I think its both of these opinions, dude was waaayyy too late to make an impact in history tbqh

Yes, absolutely.

..he was just one in a sea of what became the "working betas" of Japan.

He wasn't alone, he tried to spark a government takeover through military power, only a few followed, I heard most laughed at the idea as do betas do about a second revolution in the US.

He was a very weird character. Have you read any of his works or just read his wikipedia article? They're very trippy and hard to understand

His writing was based.

Since this board is full of teenagers whose brains have been addled by clickbait and all the rest I'd recommend the movie version of 'The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With The Sea' as an introduction to his work. They remove the Japanese nationalist themes and move the story to England where it works quite well. Also the unquestionably based Kris Kristofferson plays The Sailor.

I read Temple of the Golden Pavilion when I was 17. I think it genuinely fucked my brain up. The term "red pill" didn't exist then so I had no way to article it at all, even as a joke.

After the Banquet was interesting. "Patriotism" was, I think, Mishima masturbating and forcing you to watch it.

The Sea of Fertility was a trainwreck. I enjoyed Spring Snow -- it's a really interesting point in history there -- and The Decay of the Angel was interesting for different reasons. The Temple of Dawn was awful, one of the worst novels I've ever read, especially the parts where he goes off for pages and pages trying to back up this reincarnation theme with religious concepts so it doesn't seem as clumsy as he no doubt began to believe it was. Runaway Horses was "Patriotism II: This Time I Fist Myself Too." You knew within the first 10 pages how it would end.

There's a really weird movie -- I think it's on Youtube -- based on his life and four of his novels (not Forbidden Colors, since apparently his family still forbid anyone to speak openly of his gayness). Paul Schraeder, the guy who wrote Taxi Driver, made it and still thinks it's his best film. It's highly stylized and a little autistic.

>no way to article it at all

*articulate

>he was a gay dude who went to gay bars.
Is this even true? I mean I've seen far too many examples in history were they either list someone as a kiddie fiddler or a homo to smear their reputation as a psy ops to prevent other people from following their ideals and repeating attempts of a coup or stuff like that.

The Paul Schrader film is Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters

>"Patriotism" was, I think, Mishima masturbating and forcing you to watch it
Kek, that's pretty spot-on. Pretty sure he also cast himself in the short-film adaption, which he also directed.

>Is this even true?

Yes. Forbidden Colors is about just that and it's autobiographical. One of the "conspirators" who were there for his seppuku was his frequent lover.

His family is highly litigious about this, and apparently in Japan you can still slander the dead.

He said he first masturbated to a painting of St. Sebastian. Most of his lovers had been men, but he married when he believed that his mother was about to die.

Honestly reading any of his books and noticing how he describes the male physique, it's kind of a dead giveaway.

Yeah he was really gay, though its completely justifiable considering if you read about Homosexuality in Samurai times and shit

>Mishima was the homosex
>is this even true
Read literally anything the man ever wrote. He can't go ten pages without describing in agonizing detail how sunlight happens to glisten off the sweaty body of a buff teenage boy or something like that.

>most masculine men telling straight guys to behave like men are faggots

who cares? He's dumb dead ugly chink.

>ugly
post a photo of yourself shirtless

Also had George Lucas and Francis Ford Copolla on it. Philip Glass on the score.

Yes.

Dude is/was a celebrated novelist, can't be dumb to do that lad.

He also had the balls to die for his beliefs. How many of you faggots would perform sudoku for what you believe?

His suicide was incomprehensible to Westerners and quite a lot of Japanese too.

He didn't throw his lot and live with the consequences. He knew it was doomed and it would end in failure and his suicide. It was like an elaborate performance.

Some part of him hoped for success.

>am I kawai enough for you America-san :33
basically japan history since ww2

I wonder what your history is, country who was blitzkrieged in six weeks.

>tfw the USA is degenerate, decadent, collapsing and conquered by Islam as the Führer prophesized

there is plenty of manly men still left in Japan.

It's in English

He speaks like a fag

m.youtube.com/watch?v=DPAZQ6mhRcU

Yes

Stockholm syndrome

he doesn't sound like a fag. He sounds like he learned english from an upper class Englishman in the 60's.

Yes. He knew it all.

Exactly

one of the best 20th century novelists.

Are you me? I was just going to recommend that.

The book is incredible. My favourite quote/passage would be the sequence where they killed the kitten to exercise "absolute dispassion", and Noboru looks at its corpse and concludes that "life had posed as a cat".

Homosexuality is the implicit last stand of Japanese identity, following the Edo model.
Homophobia, after all, is Aryan in origin.

Yes. For my country I give my life. (slits gut)

He gave his life for something so frail and delicate as a country.

No, he killed himself because he was 45 and didn't want to get old.

He did it like that because he wanted to go out with a bang and promote his politics.

how did the samurai view homosexuality?

Bump.
Anyone seen this movie?

>homophobia is aryan in origin

This is what happens when CTR takes a break and just casually posts on pol.

Homophobia is instinctual to reaffirm basic sexual biology. The antithesis is vapid SJW culture that views the nuclear family unit as oppressive.

Yukio was based. He was fruity too. He was like Japan's milo yiannopoulos. He was a great poet and author, and when he realized Japan was headed towards tentacle porn, he had his boyfriend cut his head off . He had balls

>Loser who killed himself for attention
>Based

Yeah, nah.

see
Speaking of literary badasses...

>He was like Japan's milo yiannopoulos.

I'm not a complete Milo-hater like some on this board but for the love of god please do not compare him to Mishima
