I'd like Mahmoud Darwish to be correct - he's a noteworthy figure and it would be an interesting choice by the question master.
I just don't think it can be.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 133
Agreed. Defo Japan. Not one of the big four haiku chaps as they were all born too early. So possibly someone like Kenji Miyazawa as he's inspired some of the better known anime... Or maybe Akutagawa... Or someone completely different

Re: 20 Questions: Game 133
Should we make the last question "did he die by suicide"? The answer is yes for both of the free guesses (respectively autodisembowelment and drug overdose) so if both guesses are wrong I think this would be a good question.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 133
If either of those guesses is right, the final question is moot.

I lied. I'm stealing the last question with a winning guess.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 133
Unfortunately, no. I wouldn’t consider Mandatory Palestine a combatant state in WWII.
Would be a good choice, but doesn’t fit the answers to 10, 11, or 18.
And Jamie has got it! Yukio Mishima was the person you were looking for.

Re: 20 Questions: Game 133
Woo! An interesting choice, quite a controversial fellow too. I wasn't super familiar with him, but once it was clarified that it was possibly Japanese, I filtered for Japanese poets who had also acted, and who had very clearly expressed political views.
