Kotomichi, Nobusuke Tagomi and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Kotomichi has just seen Trade Minister Tagomi reappear at his office after several days]

KKotomichi

Are you well, Trade Minister?

So very tired. But I suspect you know the reason why. You're not from this world, Kotomichi.

KKotomichi

Trade Minister...

I learned in the other world, defeat of our Empire, the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where you were injured.

KKotomichi

My family, friends... perished in the bombing. As I lay in the hospital recovering from my burns, I learned to escape the pain... in my body and my mind. By accident, I found myself here. A happier world where my family survived.

I believe there's a reason for my traveling, my powers. The armies in the other world made their atomic weapons larger, some a thousand times stronger than the one dropped on Nagasaki. I fear that they will eventually destroy themselves. If General Onoda does not listen to reason, then I must speak to the Crown Prince immediately. Arrange for my trip with great haste.

KKotomichi

Trade Minister, travel to Japan is not possible at this time. We will soon be at war.

What?

KKotomichi

Hitler is dead. Poisoned. And the Nazis have blamed the Empire. I fear your warning comes too late.

There may be one last hope, Kotomichi.
