Yukio Mishima

Hi. You keep labeling Mishima as an "ultra-nationalist" in your own research, but there is no such exaggerated label in the sources of Mishima research. You may know very little about Mishima, but he had many foreign friends and respected and understood the cultural traditions of Europe and China. Of course, he was Japanese, and like many ordinary Japanese, he respected the imperial culture, but that doesn't mean it's appropriate to label him as an "ultra-nationalist," and at least in Japan, only far-left extremists say such things, so it's a biased label even from a neutral perspective. It's the same as not calling ordinary British people who respect and support the British royal family or people who have Catholic faith "ultra-nationalists."

The perception of "restoring direct imperial rule" is also misguided. Even in prewar Japanese history, the Emperor never ruled directly, so the fact that you wrote "restore" is your own original research.

The official titles of English translations such as "葉隠入門" (On Hagakure: The Samurai Ethic and Modern Japan) are the names I edited. This is also listed in Japanese sources, and is easily understood by looking at published translations.

As for links, there is no point in making red links for people or magazines that are not likely to be or do not need to be listed in the English version and are only notable in Japan, so I think the appropriate method of linking is to make it easy to go to the Japanese version as before. However, it may be better to make this more understandable for English-speaking people, so I will try to improve it.
