----------------------------------------
Introducing some new characters in this one, specifically Prime Minister Hitoshi Ashida and good old General MacArthur himself (sporting a fine pair of classic Aviators). There's a lot of immediate postwar politics (and a fair amount of vocabulary that I am going to have to look up in order to understand), specifically surrounding Ashida's resignation over a corruption scandal in his cabinet, and a totally unsubtle visual metaphor about lizards severing their own tails as a self-defense mechanism.

Also amused by the inclusion of "Go Home Quickly" as the slang for GHQ, the Japanese term for the general headquarters of the US occupation command.
