He graduated from the University of Tokyo in 1948. Since then he has been writing for various famous Japanese magazines. The writing was also printed regularly. His writing has garnered critical acclaim ever since. Earlier, when he was in high school, he used to send articles to 'Bungei Bunka' magazine. When the editorial board got into trouble for printing the writings of such a young student, the real name 'Kimita Hiraoka' was omitted and the pseudonym 'Yukio Mishima' was printed. Then he became known as Yukio Mishima. However, his father stood in the way of his writing. He was grumpy. The boy's writing could not be tolerated at all. He would even destroy any of his writings. The devastation of post-war Japan shook Mishima. The erosion of nationalist values and abhorrent traditions has always been in his writings. At the same time, the thought of death has always been in Mishima's career through her works of art. But he never surrendered his life to drugs or gas, admitting defeat to despair. In addition to all this, he is also a skilled samurai. So Mishima joined the Japan Self-Defense Force and later formed his own force called the Shield Society. In 1966 he secretly underwent about a month of defense training, and in 1967 he formed a private army of 100 men who had been sworn in to resist the emperor. On November 25, 1980, Mishima and four members of the Shield Society stormed the Tokyo headquarters of the Self-Defense Force, tied up its commander, General Masuda, and threatened 700 generals with a sword to come to the courtyard to hear Misima's speech. In that speech, he spoke of the military's abandonment of post-war democracy and the resurgence of samurai rule in ancient Japan. About seven minutes before his half-hour speech reached the soldiers, they started mocking and shouting. He decided to commit suicide when he could not reach the main objective of his speech to the assembled soldiers and committed suicide by slitting his stomach with a sharp weapon in the traditional manner. The samurai commit suicide in this manner without surrendering after being captured by the enemy.
