Well, there are many major war crimes Japan made in World War 2 (not to speak badly of Japanese people). There was the death march and so many other heinous stuff Japan did to colonies under the Axis power (Germany, Italy and Japan). Well, I think it would be the Manila massacre. It killed over 100,000 civilians including men, women, children, priests, red cross personnel, elders and even hospital patients. What do you think can top that among Japan's war crimes then? Or what do you think of this Manila massacre which was all caused by the soldiers' frustation?

I think I would go with the "Rape of Nanking" which probably killed 100,000-150,000.
