Why did the main Japanese generals become war criminals during World War II, while the German generals were big shots?
Whether the heads of state, marshals, generals and fascist followers of fascist countries in World War II are war criminals depends on whether they committed crimes against humanity during the war, whether they are war criminals if they committed crimes against humanity, and whether they are prisoners of war if they did not commit crimes against humanity. War criminals were hanged and prisoners of war were acquitted.

What is a crime against humanity? According to the regulations, genocide, shooting prisoners of war, murder, scorching the earth and using prohibited weapons (chemical and biological weapons) are crimes against humanity and are regarded as war criminals. Japan has many marshals and generals who have committed crimes against humanity. They carried out the Nanjing Massacre, the Jinan Massacre and the 73 1 human experiment, using chemical and biological weapons. All six marshals committed crimes against humanity, but they were treated as prisoners of war, such as Shintaro Ishihara and Shinichi Shimonoseki.

There are more German marshals than Japanese marshals. Only Manstein, Heinrich, Lubbers, Schneider, von Boone and Deng Nici are prisoners of war, and the rest are war criminals. Only General guderian and others are war criminals. I think there are fewer German war criminals than Japanese because there are more fugitives.
