It's interesting to note that there was in fact an unorganized resistance movement in Germany itself:
The Esperanto Book: 11 (The Inner Idea)
It's interesting to note that the Nazis had in fact backed down from one protest while at the height of their power, showing clearly that the regime wanted to avoid confrontation with its people to at least some degree.
Japan was not without its own resistance movement:
The Life and Memory of Hasegawa Teru: Contextualizing Human Rights, Trans/Nationalism, and the Antiwar Movement in Modern Japan -- Esselstrom 2008 (101): 145 -- Radical History Review
One good book worth reading is one written by Hasegawa Teru herself, titled "En Ĉinio batalanta" (In China fighting), in which she describes her struggles against her countrymen in China.
Though the Japanese of the time treated her as a traitor, the modern Japanese peace movement and the Japanese left admire her increasingly today as a true Japanese patriot of the era.
