  I said he died in 2004 but it was actually 2014 - I just misread my script because I&apos;m illiterate.<br><br>Second Channel: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt93hxFmjppL5nLRAX94UrA">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt93hxFmjppL5nLRAX94UrA </a><br>Merch: <a href="http://teespring.com/stores/qxir">teespring.com/stores/qxir </a><br>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/qxir">https://www.patreon.com/qxir </a><br>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/QxirYT">https://twitter.com/QxirYT </a><br>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/jZzvvwJ">https://discord.gg/jZzvvwJ </a><br>Twitch: <a href="https://www.twitch.tv/qxiryt/">https://www.twitch.tv/qxiryt/ </a><br>Subreddit: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Qxir/">https://www.reddit.com/r/Qxir/</a>

  not to mention when he did finally surrender, his rifle was in absolutely immaculate condition. He was obsessed, and kept everything he had in near perfect, new condition. in a fucking humid wet jungle.

  Apparently his actual brother went to the Philippines to convince him to come home and gave personal proof that it was really him with tears in his eyes, but Onoda still refused because he thought his brother was sent there by the Allies.<br>Imagine how awkward it must be coming home after that

  I wonder what went through Taniguchi&apos;s head when he was told he had to travel all the way to the Philippines to relive one soldier of his duties that he gave nearly 3 decades prior.

  Somewhere, in the cold lonely Atlantic there’s a lost German U-Boat crew un-aged by occult nazi magic thinking the war is still going on.

  Fun fact: When Onoda returned to the island years after, the Filipino locals were very friendly towards him, even if he killed some farmers back when he was still a stray soldier.
