Talk:Second Sino-Japanese War

Name
Can it be confirmed that this title does come from the Target novelisation? The BTS section on World War II states that "Hostilities between China and Japan during the 1930s were first alluded to" in this novelisation, but claims that the conflict has not been given this name in the DWU. Is that false? 06:27, April 16, 2020 (UTC)
 * The closest reference to the war in the book is this (at least that I could find):
 * ‘This one is playing tricks again,’ said the first man, referring to a notebook. ‘Control says it made delivery to America 1862, but failed to deliver to the German side in the 1917 Zone and to the Roman war.’ He looked up. ‘Now the Chinese sector wants more specimens to fight the Japanese in 1936.
