Correct me if I am wrong lypo, but did the Emperor not make the final decision/ have the last word in that movie... rolleyes: Not to mention that he ended up slowing down Japan's industrial/modern developements at the end to save Japenese traditions... which in turn would support the whole fiasco of keeping such mantras as "the Emperor = living God".... Hey that is just my look on it..but meh.
