Sometimes it would be in force in a banzai attack.

On July 7, 1944, while fighting on Saipan, Bean and his comrades faced the largest suicidal banzai attack of the war and, at 24, he was reported missing in action.

“We thought it was a banzai attack but parrots had moved in on us. They were objecting to us being there. There were hundreds of them.”

In a banzai attack, every Japanese soldier would leave his post and come running at you with a gun or a sword or even just his bare hands.
