okay I typed it in a hurry. let me explain it again?
What I asked for was, "The fear of finding something existing". something existing means- it's old. It exists already.
But the phobias that you mentioned are all about trying something new that doesn't exist? Trying to change from existing ones. Did this confuse you more? hehe

The face was for me putting the wrong phobias together 
Lets try combining it with Cyberphobia (Centophobia)

Yeah truly!
Even this applies when you try for any account name online.

Ohbuggerophobia!
Although, on second thought, that suggests a possible fear of something else entirely!

Hiroo Onoda has died.
Who He?
To this day when the grass in the garden is getting long we joke "It is so long there are Japanese soldiers in there who still think the war is on".
Hiroo Onoda[^] was that man.
What an arse.
30 years in a jungle because he was too proud to admit Japan lost a war.
Still, it makes for a great story.
Technically I suppose he was the longest serving Lieutenant in the Japanese Army, and a record unlikely ever to be broken.
(I wonder how much back pay he received?)

They paid attention when he surrendered. What else does he need?

Not what the story said.
<excerpt>
The young soldier had orders not to surrender - a command he obeyed for nearly three decades.
"Every Japanese soldier was prepared for death, but as an intelligence officer I was ordered to conduct guerrilla warfare and not to die," he told ABC in an interview in 2010.
"I became an officer and I received an order. If I could not carry it out, I would feel shame. I am very competitive," he added.
...
Mr Onoda ignored several attempts to get him to surrender.
He later said that he dismissed search parties sent to him, and leaflets dropped by Japan, as ploys.
"The leaflets they dropped were filled with mistakes so I judged it was a plot by the Americans,"
</excerpt>
He may have been an enemy soldier, but one has to admire his resolve.

Oh I admire his resolve and determinism, but to think that instead of living in a jungle, providing his own food and not having a job, he could have been in a comfortable bed, working hard as a drone in a Japanese corporation, and living in a smog filled metropolis like Tokyo whilst his children....
Wait a minute...
What am I saying?
Right, I am off to the Jungle for the next 30 years!

That depends on when he joined the army. There was Private Tero Nakamura[^] who was the last jap army member to surrender.

From the Nakamura story.
As a private of a colonial unit, Nakamura was not entitled to pensions after a 1953 change in the law on pensions, and thus received only a minimal sum of ¥68,000 (US $227.59 at the time, now US $1,100 in 2014).[3] This raised a considerable outcry in the press, motivating the government to donate over $100,000 similar to what had been given to Onoda

So, it means WWII officially ended in 1974 when the last warrior surrendered?

Apparently so.
<excerpt>
The Philippine government granted him a pardon, although many in Lubang never forgave him for the 30 people he killed during his campaign on the island

He continued the war to the very end.

Are you planning this as a mini-series?
Or will there be 13 episodes with an option for a second season?

I've been in talks with Auntie. We were planning on getting Rolf Harris to do the show from a small 8 by 10 room. Looks like he'll have plenty of free time.
