Devil's Sea The Devil's Sea (魔の海 , Ma no Umi ) , also known as the Dragon's Triangle, the Formosa (Taiwan) Triangle (: "Fúěrmóshā Sānjiǎo" ) and the "Pacific Bermuda Triangle", is a region of the Pacific around Miyake Island, about 100 km south of Tokyo. The Devil's sea is sometimes considered a paranormal location, though the veracity of these claims has been soundly debunked. The size and area varies with the report (the only reports stem from the 1950s), with various reports placing it 110 km from an unspecified part of Japan's east coast, 480 km from the coast, and even near Iwo Jima, 1200 km from the coast.

Dragon Seed (novel) Dragon Seed is a novel by Pearl S. Buck first published in 1942. It describes the lives of Chinese peasants in a village outside Nanjing, China immediately prior to and during the Japanese invasion in 1937. Some characters seek protection in the city while others become collaborators. This story focuses less on the details of the attack and more on the characters’ reactions to the events in Nanking. The Nanking Massacre (commonly called the Rape of Nanking) involved months of horrific violence by the Imperial Japanese Army as they conquered the city; the novel takes place during these events. Buck opines in the novel that Japanese troops passing through China feel no responsibility for their conduct as they won’t be present to be confronted after the violence is over.
