Yamato is the son of kaidou Born as kaidou's daughter and groomed from a young age to be his heir, yamato instead developed a profound admiration for the legendary samurai kouzuki oden After oden's death, yamato decided to become like him, impersonating him and adopting his mannerisms. On the morning of april 7, 1945, the japanese battleship yamato, behemoth of naval engineering and pride of the imperial japanese navy, sortied on what was essentially a suicidal mission. By 1420, the main deck was vertical and, at 1430, yamato had rolled over and just gone under when the no.1 forward magazine detonated in a massive explosion that killed almost all of yamato ’s. The tragic fate of the battleship yamato in 1945 embodies japan’s ultimate sacrifice during world war ii, aiming to defend okinawa but ultimately failing to impact the allied invasion.
Yamato was the flagship of the imperial japanese navy and a source of national pride during the early 1940s It was completed at a time when naval strategy still prioritised the supremacy of battleships and showed the peak of that doctrine before aircraft carriers transformed maritime warfare. The yamato was unique compared to other warships from the era, not only because it was the largest battleship on the sea It was different in that it embodied the entire imperial japanese war effort into a single vessel. The period is commonly called the tumulus, or tomb, period from the presence of large burial mounds (kofun), its most common archaeological feature Yamato is japan's #1 parcel delivery company, and one of the industry's most ambitious global freight forwarders
