Re: credit page,
Slavery was banned 150 years ago in the USA. In Japan, it was banned ~429 years ago, BUT only of fellow Japanese and even then the law was poorly enforced with many using free-labor contracts and indentured servitude as work-arounds. The Empire would continue to use non-Japanese slaves until its dissolution in 1945. During the war years they showed particular cruelty by drafting millions of unpaid conscripted laborers from their conquered territories in Manchuria, China, Korea, SE Asia, and various Pacific Islands. Over the course of the war they added their POWs to this number and worked ~1-2 million of them to death. Even today, their legitimate sex industry accounts for a not insignificant portion of the sex slavery trafficking channels in the Far East, though a much smaller portion than that of China or SE Asia in particular.
