Please note that being in the public domain in Japan does not automatically mean that it is free as well in the United States. Find and add one of the PD US license tags in order to ensure that the file is free in the United States. Typically, for a published work to be in the public domain in the United States, it needs to be published before 1946, because of URAA-restored copyrights. Unpublished works need to satisfy {{PD-US-unpublished}}.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it meets three requirements:
