Governor of Tokyo.
A former Defense Ministry bureaucrat who switched careers to enter politics. A sharp mind with ambitions to wrest leadership of Tokyo away from the national government.
With good looks and a direct, incisive speaking style, he gained popularity by pursuing government scandals. Though recommended by the opposition, he takes an issue-by-issue stance, leaving no openings for his rivals.
From a distinguished political family with roots before the war, his decisiveness and foresight are genuine. A secret smoker.
