Detailed explanation-1: -Hiroo Onoda (Japanese: , Hepburn: Onoda Hiroo, 19 March 1922 – 16 January 2014) was an Imperial Japanese Army intelligence officer who fought in World War II and was a Japanese holdout who did not surrender at the war’s end in August 1945.
Detailed explanation-2: -This theory also posits that the U.S. could have achieved a Japanese surrender if it had been more lenient with its demands for unconditional surrender. The main reason Japan would not surrender was that it did not want to get rid of the Emperor, a seemingly non-negotiable term for the U.S.
Detailed explanation-3: -Total sacrifice. Although some Japanese were taken prisoner, most fought until they were killed or committed suicide.
Detailed explanation-4: -Fear of being killed after surrendering was one of the main factors which influenced Japanese troops to fight to the death, and a wartime US Office of Wartime Information report stated that it may have been more important than fear of disgrace and a desire to die for Japan.
