Hi guys! Wow, I'm still alive! Haha! I actually lost the link to this site and I finally found it again.
To those who remember, I'm still writing my novel on World War II, with a Japanese soldier as one of my lead characters. Going on three years now
I'm almost done with the book. Perhaps in the next few months, I'll be able to write "THE END". But while I'm still at another writer's block stage, I took time off to read and edit. Recently, I read Michael Chricton's "Rising Sun", and it contained a lot of information regarding Japanese customs that made me raise my brows. That's why I'll need to ask....
1. During and prior to the war years, what was the general Japanese opinion towards foreigners?
2. During and prior to the war years, what was the general Japanese opinion towards halfbreeds? (Half Japanese, Half non-asian, either Eurasians or Amerasians; this was pointed out in "Rising Sun" and the Amerasian character was mostly very much shunned)
3. During and prior to the war years, what was the general Japanese opinion towards non-Shintoists and non-Buddhists, esp. towards Christians?
Thank you for reading
