The second run changes the deployment problem rather than simply repeating the political sequence. The army is recalled, the fleet stays around Japan, and aircraft return home so the state's usable forces are concentrated before the next crisis. Keeping those forces within reach of the decisive theatre matters when an internal rupture is expected. Smaller regional commands and training assignments are organised around that concentration rather than left scattered across the empire.

After the first defeat, the revised plan brings every available force back to Japan before attempting democratic reform again.
