As an atheist I see religion as just another ideology, but one with an often extreme foundation of compliance with the given dogma, and imperial Japan most definitely had an extreme foundation of compliance to rival any religion. And given the belief in the Japanese emperor as divine I'd question whether it wasn't in some ways an actual religion, but honestly that's just conjecture.

You're grasping at straws, bro.

This is functionally the same thing as them having a different religion.
