As mentioned earlier, Japan's family style changed dramatically after the defeat, and the position of women in the group of families also changed a lot during this period. Unlike in the past, when the husband is a salary man and the wife is a housewife, she chooses roles in the family equally according to the free will of the parties. The two men and women who have become family members focus on living in harmony with each other, away from their gender roles. This is one of the ways to live with others, the author suggests. "Boku" which was difficult to establish relationships with other people through communication, learned how to live with others through making a family, and their lives are becoming a measure of how Japanese society looks. It is believed that female characters in Haruki's works were gradually developed into diverse characters.
