About this episode

In September of 1945, World War II officially ended with Japan's surrender, putting an end to countless deaths and years of brutal human combat. But from the ashes of war, whispers would soon emerge about a secret facility deep within Manchuria; whispers about horrific human experiments, chemical testing, and a cold inhumanity far beyond most peoples' imaginations. But what really happened behind the secret doors of Unit 731? And who was the enigmatic figure masterminding it all - General Shiro Ishii?
