    There's even a traditional way of suicide, [i]seppuku[i]. Japanese Samurai honour traditions. They wanted to fight on and cause lots of Americans not for surrender, the Americans wanted them to surrender already. They didn't want an unconditional surrender, and many Japanese had been surprised and angered by unconditional surrender, because they'd been told that they were winning.
