I am well aware of who Mishima was. He wrote about masturbating the first time to a paitning of St. Sebastian, pierced by arrows. I wrote a paper on him in high school stating that his ultra-nationalism was tied into his interpretation of Bushido and his ritual death was an act of onanism.

his scenario of burning down the Golden Pavilion of Kyoto by a crazed young Bhuddist priest, in one of his novels most most weird, even too much for the Japanese to handle (the British movie with that particular
scene was actually banned in Japan itself). i had to go all the way to London to see it.
