Gekido no Showashi: Okinawa Kessen plot
"The biggest and last fierce battle in history! 90 days of turbulence that burned green and life!"
With the country on the brink of total collapse, Japan is strengthening its last defensive stronghold, Okinawa Island. This final hurdle to an attack by the United States soon erupts into the bloodiest battle in the Pacific. It's going to be a battle full of horrors of war on a level never thought possible. The desperate but determined Japanese soldiers in Okinawa try to demonstrate to the Americans what to expect if they ever attempt to enter the Japanese mainland.
