Character Analysis 2

Another emphasized character are the chief of fishermen, Mishima Tamio, and one of the crew, Harada. Mishima Tamio was the chief of fishermen which means he was the person in charge of controling everything. He was also the decision maker, meaning he was the one who made the decision of changing the direction of the route. As chief, he was respected by all the fishermen. He also a very reliable person, as he was not selfish, also thinking about the crew’s condition and could make the right decision.


Harada, one of the crew, was quite a shy person. He got a girlfriend and we can see that they love each other. I can say that Harada was a shy person looking to the scene where he beat some of the crews whom teased him having a girlfriend. He was easy to cry. He cried when his girlfriend visited him in the hospital and said that she would wait for him to recover. This also show that the girlfriend was very loyal to Harada.




Another character is the owner of the boat, Nishiyama Yoichi. He was the owner of the boat. He was very strict and quite hard on his crew. This could be shown by the scene when he scolded all the crews and chiefs as they did not give any reports about changing the route and ended up coming back not in the scheduled day. However, he was a caring boss that he listened to the story about the bombing and gave permission to the crew to get to the hospital for medical check-up rather that keeping them to finish their works.



One of the doctor, the psychologist for exact, named Kumagai, appeared from the middle of the film. As the psychologist, he gave affection to the patients that he could get along with all of them. This proved that he was doing his job well as a doctor. He was very concerned about Kuboyama's condition that was not getting better.
