Of course Arasaka Saburo's plan had always been to "restore Japan to its pre WWII Imperial glory" with Arasaka at the head.Everything else was just a means to an end.
True, true. I loved that shot of him sitting in a Zero as a young man. So...ominous.
And Japan was greatly restored, albeit not to pre WW2 days. In some ways, Arasaka the multinational's success ran away with it, and Saburo's dreams.
