Question from a reader:
It seems that Masahiro Nakai wants to express his opinions, but is he planning to ignore the voices of the victimized women? It feels like he might not be considering the lifting of confidentiality obligations. Is my understanding correct?
Reflection on Masahiro Nakai
Recently, discussions about Masahiro Nakai have been popping up everywhere. While he strongly asserts
his opinions, many are pointing out that the voices of the victimized women are not being heard. Of course, media reports often provide limited information, so there are aspects we may not know for sure, but it certainly leaves a murky feeling. When I think about this matter, it feels a bit off that the perpetrator has confidentiality obligations. Ignoring the voices of the victims and only asserting one’s own position seems wrong. Especially when someone as influential as Nakai behaves this way, it could potentially have negative effects on those around him.
My Own Memories
This reminds me of a time I went to see a comedy show with friends. On stage, the comedians were turning various social issues into laughter. While the audience was laughing, the content also made us think. Comedy can sometimes tackle serious themes, but I believe it has the power to wrap them in humor. I recall discussing with my friends, “This material is funny, but I wish they would talk about deeper issues too.” Every time I go to a comedy show, it’s a given that I end up laughing so hard my stomach hurts. That feeling is an indescribably happy moment. Oh, and my friend arranged the tickets, but I mistakenly arrived early because I misjudged the event time. In the end, I indulged in too many sweets at a nearby café and regretted it a bit, but that too became a memorable experience.
In Conclusion
Regarding Nakai’s situation, I believe we should indeed listen to the voices of the victims. I’m curious to see what results his actions will bring and how things will unfold in the future.
