>In a move to deal with a shortage of male heirs and the shrinking number of imperial family members, the bill also included a resolution calling for debate on allowing women to stay in the Imperial family even after their marriage. Current law mandates that they leave.
>Both allowing them to stay and the controversial issue of changing the system to allow female inheritance have been suggested as a way of dealing with the shrinking pool of royals, an issue highlighted last month with the announcement that the Emperor's oldest granddaughter will marry a commoner. reuters.com/article/idUSKBN18T0FK

The youngest prince is cute, what a lucky fucker to be born as a god among your people
Levi Brown
Do the Japanese still see him as a "Pope-like" figure?
The Emperors reigned but didn't ruled.
A long line that may come from a Jomon native fought over by clans descended warlords from China and Korea.
Jeremiah Ortiz
Do we even know if the male line hasn't been cucked by a Shogun before?
The Samurai kept fighting over control of the Emperor.
Anthony Ward
No, that ended after WW2 I believe (his father)
Jose Ward

yeah, they are very conservatives, they still worship the royal family
Connor Ross
yeah but who cares
Ian Wright
Had Oda Nobunaga survived, he may have eventually declared himself Emperor.
He had some massive balls after all.
I think Shogun was not enough to enact all his ideas and beliefs and goals.
Adrian Mitchell

Michael Baker
There's a major debate in Japanese academia as to whether or not the Emperor actually relinquished his claim to divinity or not at the end of WWII, based on the exact phrasing of the speech in question.
Jayden Murphy
He was most powerful during WW2 but before that, historically, the Shoguns were the most powerful.
Historically, emperor was more like the Pope of the Shinto religion.
He does ceremonial rituals and stuff for every month or season.
Jace Gonzalez
What does this guy want to call it a day?
Grayson Foster
I think you meant 'during the Meiji era' By the time WWII came around the Emperor was back to being a pseudo-puppet for the Military. Not nearly as much as pre-Meiji, but definitely not the guy with power. I bet early-Heian and pre-Heian era emperors had a fair bit more power as well, but that's pre-writing in Japan so who knows.
Jace Young
hopefully they get Japanese hitler
every nation on earth should have their own hitler
Caleb Campbell
If you change the rules, why not let a big strong AMERICAN black man fuck your daughter?
He can make you plenty of MANLY chink babies.
Dominic Anderson
It's generally believed that Hirohito said that only to appease America and that no one in Japan really believed it and knew it was just bullshit he was being forced to do.
