As he arrives in Yokohama, he is immediately struck by the atmosphere that masks the realities of war, observing the everyday life and customs of the Japanese. The narrative sets the stage for his quest to understand the values and characteristics of the Japanese soldiers, exploring themes of honor, sacrifice, and the stark contrasts between Japanese and Western cultural norms.
