Hello, my name is Betty
In real life the Japanese evacuation fleet had to fight all the way across the Pacific. Former Taiwanese, Filipino, South Korean, and even some North Korean warships sailed with them. Along with the last American warships in that part of the globe, the Chinese fought them all the way to Midway. Twilight only showed the scene of the ragtag fleet leaving Okinawa as the last line of defenders fought to slow the Chinese advance. The pursuit didn’t make it into the show due to story focus and time, but the season set came with hundreds of hours of news footage and interviews with real survivors and the Twilight cast talking about the Fall of Japan and the subsequent evacuation.
