Question from a reader:
Princess Kako is truly a lovely princess. In the history of Japan, were there any beautiful individuals who could match her? I’m curious about this.
The Intersection of Beauty and History
The topic of Princess Kako is always fascinating. Her beauty captivates many people, and I am one of them. Especially her refreshing smile and graceful demeanor
truly embody what it means to be a princess.
Beauty in History
As the questioner pointed out, it’s a challenging theme to discuss whether there have been beautiful individuals in Japanese history who can be compared to her. While there were indeed stunning women like Yanagihara Sakuko, the differing historical contexts and standards of beauty make simple comparisons difficult. The beauty of Empress Michiko is also noteworthy, and her presence has not faded even now. I couldn’t help but chuckle at the opinion that Prince Akishino is a “mutation of a handsome man.” Indeed, parental genetics can have a strong influence. The standards of beauty change with time, but it’s undeniable that Princess Kako is a symbol of modern beauty.
What is the Royal Women Ranking?
The idea of a “Royal Women Ranking” is intriguing. If such a ranking existed, Princess Kako would undoubtedly be at the top. While beauty standards vary across countries and cultures, her aura and charm should be appreciated beyond borders. Personally, I often engage in discussions with my friends about “beauty.” Sometimes, we jokingly debate which princess from any era is the most beautiful. During those times, I always say, “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.” That’s why Princess Kako’s beauty resonates with many hearts.
What are Your Standards of Beauty?
So, what do you all think? If you have any memories or episodes related to beauty throughout history, I would love for you to share them in the comments. Everyone perceives beauty differently, and I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts. I might even gain a new perspective!
