Lmaoo what a queen
So reassuring
Respect
This is why Japan's a developed nation
bruh imagine your cabinet minister is out here with better anime takes than you π
Lol
Isn't this what politics should be about? We need like one genuine otaku or gamer to run for parliament too
This is the most Japanese thing I've ever heard lmao, a politician who actually understands their own culture
Hell yeah
I read that as 'elementary school faction member' lol
It takes a nerd to get the big things done
Yessss lol
Wow really? Wow I got totally fooled, I never would've thought of it
Okay but if he's making policy decisions while thinking about waifus that's both hilarious and concerning
My heart just grew three sizes
Dammit yes
Wait, a Japanese government official is into anime? That's actually kind of based ngl π
I need to know who this is immediately, asking for research purposes obviously
Finally someone in government who won't judge us for our interests, this man gets it
Not Japan's government being more relatable than most world leaders, we're living in the timeline now
