Do you enjoy watching miniseries about war? You’ve undoubtedly heard of the Tokyo Trial series, one of the most popular on television. Four-part series based on the real-life story of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, also known as the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal, which was established to try the eminent leaders, politicians, and military commanders of Japan for executing a conflict against China, as well as for war crimes, during the Second World War. It can barely be called a four-part series. Everything in the first season was predicated on these themes, and we’re hoping they’ll return in season 2.

Tokyo Trial Season 2 Story
For two and a half years beginning in April 1946, General Douglas MacArthur appointed 11 judges from around the world to preside over the trial, which was supposed to last two and a half years. This group of ten judges consisted of nine from countries that signed the Instrument of Surrender, and one from India, Radhabinod Pal, a judge at the Calcutta high court and a member of the United Nations’ International Law Commission.
A good deal of confusion resulted from the fact that five of the 11 judges released opinions outside the courtroom in which they expressed disagreement on a variety of issues, including the majority judgment’s criticisms of certain aspects or questions about the procedure for carrying it out. Finally, after a series of highs and lows with plenty of twists and turns, the first season comes to a close, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the second season, which will carry on the story until it is relevant to today.
Tokyo Trial Season 2 Cast
The cast of the first season of this series is unquestionably one of the greatest examples of a legendary cast in the history of the entertainment industry.
Myron Cramer from the United States of America was played by Tim Ahern, Paul Freeman as Lord William D. Patrick from Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Serge Hazanavicius as Henri Bernard from the French Republic, Marcel Hensema as Professor Bert V.A. Röling from the Kingdom of Netherlands, and Jonathan Hyde as President Sir William Webb from the Commonwealth. David Tse as Mei Ju-ao, the face of the Republic of China, was represented by the Dominion of Canada; Julian Wadham as Sir Erima H. Northcroft, the face of New Zealand; Bert Matias as Delfin Jaranilla, a colonel and former Supreme Court Associate Justice of the Philippine Commonwealth; and Kestutis Stasys Jakstas as Major General I.M. Zaryanov, the Soviet Union’s representative
Stacy Keach, Michael Ironside, Hadewych Minis, and Shinya Tsukamoto are also deserving of a standing ovation for their contributions. There have been a few departures from the original cast members, so the anticipated second season may feature a new cast of characters.
