Damn, this is crazy/insane.

Japan isn't messing around anymore.

Nico Nico Choka Iki 2026 - instead of Japan's usual strategy, **Ono Daki Kimi** dropped this absolutely massive statement:

**"Shut up, this is Japan!"**

She made it clear: the Japanese government will protect anime, manga, and Japanese creators from foreign pressure and demands to change their works.

Current Japanese Cabinet Minister Onoda Kimi

ย 

Recently, she caused quite the stir among otaku for strongly opposing regulations on Japanese anime with the statement Shut up! This is Japan!

ย 

She was so fired up that she even declared "It's the Japanese government's duty to protect Japanese culture from foreign censorship pressure"

ย 

For context, Minister Onoda Kimi has been the secretary of a cross-party members' alliance on manga, anime, and games since 2014

ย 

She's openly said she's a fujoshi who loves BL, and when asked why she's still single, she answered

ย 

"Because I'm in love with 2D men, I have no interest in real-life guys"โ€”she's the real deal otaku for sure
