Ep. 7: Der Vorfall zeigt japanische Perspektiven während der Ereignisse des Mukden-Zwischenfalls in Mandschurei.

This episode was streamed exclusively online due to the controversy of the Mukden Incident. It depicts the point of view of the Japanese in Manchuria during the events leading up to the Mukden Incident. It revolves around two young newspaper reporters who are riding on the South Manchuria Railway and run into Kanji Ishiwara, the Lieutenant Colonel of the Kwantung Army who helped devise the bombing so that Japan could attack Manchuria out of "self-defense". Other key historical figures are also present such as Seishirō Itagaki and Yoshitsugu Tatekawa. (Source: Wikipedia) Note: Episode 7 was originally replaced by a special recap episode, titled Yogen (Prophecy), for the TV broadcast and was instead streamed online only between May 18 and May 30, 2010 on the anime's official website. The episode was deemed as too controversial for regular television because it told the Mukden Incident from the Japanese characters' point of view.
