He was captured by the enemy when he had to let his sister escape no matter what. In such situation, Tanizaki hit the enemy with the truck of a civilian who happened to pass by. By doing that, the truck would be completely destroyed and the driver would not be able to come out intact. But Tanizaki couldnāt care less about such things. Because for him, justice, morality or peace for the people, all come after his āsisterā. The line where he said āIf it is for Naomi, I would gladly reduce the world to ashes,ā is called āsekayakiā* (world-burn) by the stage play staff, and is the line I was asked to include into the script at all costs.
