Reader’s Question:
What are the reasons that Komuro-san and Mako-sama’s marriage was not celebrated? Additionally, if the couple has a son, is there a possibility that he could become Emperor in the future? Furthermore, is it true that Aiko-sama will succeed Prince Hisahito? What would happen if Princess Kako’s child is a boy?
Considerations on Komuro-san and Mako-sama’s Marriage
Recently, there
has been a lot of discussion regarding the marriage of Komuro-san and Mako-sama. When I first heard the news, I must admit that I felt a thrill, thinking, “Wow, a love story within the imperial family!” However, it appears that there are several reasons why their marriage was not celebrated. Firstly, there are rumors about Komuro-san’s financial background. His low income led many to speculate that he was after Mako-san’s money. Financial issues are a sensitive topic in any relationship. We’ve all had moments of anxiety when borrowing money from friends, thinking, “How will I pay this back?” In the case of the imperial family, the implications are far more significant. Secondly, the reports concerning Komuro-san’s mother’s relationships and financial troubles were major factors as well. It felt like a complicated plot straight out of a television drama, making it difficult for the public (the citizens) to empathize with the situation. I’ve had conversations with friends while watching TV, wondering, “What would I do if I were Mako-san?” The pressure they face is undoubtedly different from that of a typical romantic relationship.
The Possibility of a Son Becoming Emperor
Now, if Komuro-san and Mako-san were to have a son, it is said that he would not have the possibility of becoming Emperor. This is because Mako-san has renounced her imperial status and become a commoner. For ordinary families like ours, we can dream about what our children might become in the future, but when it comes to the royal family, that becomes a complicated matter. Of course, there are questions about whether Aiko-sama will succeed Prince Hisahito, but even if Aiko-sama or Kako-sama has a son, he would not be eligible for the throne. This is based on Japan’s imperial succession rules, which require a male heir from the male line. It feels somewhat melancholic, doesn’t it? We often talk about wanting our sons to play soccer or baseball, but we realize that for royalty, those dreams come with a different set of considerations.
In Conclusion
In the end, it seems that Komuro-san and Mako-san’s marriage has proceeded with many unresolved issues. I’ve discussed with friends how much pressure I could endure if I were in Mako-san’s position. It reaffirms the importance of honesty and trust above all else. What do you think?
