Geki is considered to be the conclusion of Mishima's life as a , and if his posthumous novel
The Sea of Fertility is the culmination of his aesthetics as a literary figure, then with "Geki" subsumes those essences, and also the aggregation of Mishima's mental structure as a warrior who aspired to be both literary and martial. and it has expressed a feeling of hopelessness and pessimistic anger to the fate of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, just are keeping without utilizing their skills and talents, in the forlorn reality that
Article 9 of the Constitution cannot be amended. He then stated that they had been dreamed about JSDF of preserving "the real Japanese, the true spirit of the samurai," but JSDF was legally "unconstitutional" under the now
constitution imposed on them by the
GHQ after the war, and had been continued to bear "the dishonorable cross of the nation after defeat," and that JSDF only given a status like that of a huge police force, and the "object of its loyalty has not been made clear." And he reached out that "Defense, that should be a fundamental issue for the nation, has been obscured by convenient legal interpretations, and as an army which does not use the name of a national army, which has been the fundamental cause of the corruption of the Japanese soul and the decadence of morals." {{Blockquote|text= We watched postwar Japan become obsessed with economic prosperity, forget the country's roots, lose its national spirit, pursue ends without correcting the roots, fall into makeshift measures and hypocrisy, and fall into an emptiness of the spirit. Politics became devoted to covering up contradictions, self-preservation, lust for power, and hypocrisy, the nation's long-term plans were left to foreign country, the shame of defeat was not wiped away but merely whitewashed, and the Japanese themselves desecrated Japan's history and traditions. We had to watch with gritting teeth as the Japanese themselves desecrated Japan's history and traditions. He said that "the original purpose of the establishment of Japan's military is exist to 'protecting Japan's history, culture, and traditions centered on the Emperor'." He also criticized the government that had suppressing the demonstrators with police force alone, by which gained confidence that it could maintain the political system without "picking up the hot chestnuts out of the fire named 'constitutional amendment'". Furthermore, Mishima lamented the fact that the JSDF personnel have remained silent and are just like "canaries whose voices have been taken away," reaching out, "Sadly, in the end, the missions that are given to you will not come from Japan," he also mentioned the "
Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons" that
unequal treaty disadvantageous to Japan and affecting the nation's long-term plans, and he lamented the fact that not a single general had committed
seppuku in protest against it, and, in the end, he touched on the inside of the
Reversion of Okinawa. {{Blockquote|text= What is the Reversion of Okinawa? What is the responsibility of the mainland for defending? It is patently obvious that the U.S. would not be glad to see a truly independent Japanese military defending Japanese land. If Japan does not regain its independence within the next two years, the JSDF will end up as American
mercenaries forever as the leftists say. (Omitted)Is that all right a world in which the soul is dead and just for only respect life? What meaning of the army without values higher than life? Now is the time to we will show you where to find an existence of greater value more than respect for life. It is not
liberalism or
democracy. It is Japan! It is Japan, the land of the history and the tradition we love, Japan. Are none of you willing to die by hurling yourselves against the constitution that has torn the bones and heart from that which we love? The words "within the next two years" he said, has understood as a signal of the "
US-China Reconciliation" and the "Okinawa Reversion" in 1972, and it has considered that Mishima was concerned about the form in which Okinawa would be returned, and predicted a permanent American occupation that would continue indefinitely. == Letters entrusted to two journalists ==
