In his suicide note, Amakasu wrote that as a samurai, he would like to have died as a samurai by seppuku (hara-kiri), but that having failed the emperor, he was not worthy of such an honorable death.
Amakasu reportedly slept with a gun at his side on a regular basis, and refused to accept visitors on the anniversary of his murder of Otsugi.

 THE ANARCHIST MOVEMENT IN JAPAN - Chapter Two: 1912-1936   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Amakasu Masahiko, the captain in command of the military police unit, was put on trial and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment, but within three years he was free again and back on duty.
Terrorism was the result of the systematic inhumanity practised by the capitalist state and the persistence of this causative factor guaranteed that in years to come a minority of anarchists would continue to be provoked into attempts to pay back the ruling class in kind.
The Manchurian Incident was the beginning of the process whereby the Japanese capitalist state attempted to extend its control over ever larger slices of Chinese territory in order to make up for these deficiencies.

Amakasu talks at length of the failure of the Japanese educational system to meet the needs of its students -- the very fuel of any economy's future -- by ignoring their needs and dismissing their cries for help.
Wakiyama and Amakasu aim to focus on the risks that an entity -- a company or family -- cannot predict.
Still, just prior to their late June US tour to promote D-Quest and establish contacts and alliances, I ask Amakasu why he designed an itinerary that has the two men soaring from coast to coast, then south to Texas, hitting five cities in 11 days before returning to Tokyo.

 Axis History Forum :: View topic - Info: Early Japanese Army Air Force Aircraft
During the Manchurian Incident, one chutai of these heavy bombers participated experimentally in the campaign for a short period.
Although a technical breakthrough as a large all-metal aircraft for the Army, it was excessively slow, and not greatly appreciated by its crews.
By the autumn of 1931, the aircraft was accepted by the Army as the Type 91 Fighter, and was made known officially to the Japanese public in February 1932.

 Ito Noe, 1895-1923 - libcom.org | history
The mass media used this incident to attack Ito, Osugi and Kamachika for their ‘immorality’ and the anarchist movement in general.
At the trial which followed the discovery of the murderer, a secret policeman, Amakasu Masahiko, on orders from Emperor Hirohito, was given just ten years’ gaol.
Released by personal order of Hirohito, four years later, and assigned to ‘special duties’ in Manchuria, he finally committed suicide in 1945, before his crimes could be avenged by the many anarchists after his blood.

Ο υπεύθυνος αξιωματικός Amakasu Masahiko, δικάστηκε και καταδικάστηκε σε φυλάκιση δέκα χρόνων.

 Film: A Bloody Spear at Mt. Fuji   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
As decisively as Kurosawa before him, Uchida broke the conventions of the chambara or sword fight film with his witty, loose-limbed A Bloody Spear at Mount Fuji, the first work he made after returning from eight years in Manchuria.
His sojourn there, under the spell of the crazed militarist Amakasu Masahiko who ran the Manchurian Film Cooperative, suggests how easily Uchida slipped from the romantic leftist populism of his pre-war social critiques to an uneasy admiration for bushido values, for empire, emperor and warrior 'ethics'.
Bloody Spear marks Uchida's post-war return to Japanese cinema and to progressive principles, but his homecoming is markedly ambivalent in its values.
