The assassin was a 17 year old young man named Yamaguchi. He was a nationalist, hated communists, and committed suicide after being arrested.

The target was a communist politician named Asanuma. He loved Chinese Communism and wanted that shit to spread to Japan. He spoke out against Japan's alliance with the US, and instead advocated for Japan to ally itself with the communists in China.
