About this deal

In 2020, he would start his own platform, Mouthing Off Magazine, for aspiring young to gain experience within the world of journalism and have their works published. Sakuma Confectionery, a separate company that makes a similarly-branded product packaged in green tin cans, remains in business. The company cites rising production costs, labor shortages, and drops in sales as reasons for its bankruptcy. It’s a sign of hope that the darkest chapter in the country's history has come to a close, and that its citizens will never again have to face the horrors that these characters experienced. In the film, the younger sister Setsuko Yokokawa can be seen frequently eating Sakuma’s Drops and offering her brother Seita Yokokawa some.

This made sugar a luxury and sought-after item that was nearly impossible to obtain through legal channels unless it was provided by a person's employer. After Setsuko’s ashes are thrown into grasslands by a patrolling officer (and Seita himself passes away), the two siblings are finally reconnected.

Not only have these characters been able to regain their dignity, but so has Japan after the war ends. The film, directed by Isao Takahata, follows the tragic story of Seita and his younger sister Setsuko, who must learn to survive the harsh realities of war after their house is destroyed in a firebombing raid. Sojiro Sakuma, an entrepreneur hailing from Chiba Prefecture, wanted to create a Japanese version of the popular fruit candies imported from abroad, thus founding Sakuma Seika.
