I pray to god he got elected over more than being a manga fan.


He got elected over his Pro-Gundam platform. But knowing politicians, we're gonna get something akin to a Labor.

LOL, a guy like that as a Prime Minister... Truly hilarious.

Well, the important thing is that at least he will no longer be the foreign minister when saying such things.

I started reading this happy, but some of the stuff quoted at the end is questionable?

Well, it's one thing to be a good person and another to be a good leader. I think. We're always moaning about how slow democratic society is, maybe we need more radical people like this guy to shake things up. Or maybe it's just that we're limited to giant douches and turd sandwiches.

I hope Japan will be okay lol.
