Question from readers:
What do you think will happen to Tachibana-san from the NHK Party in the future?
Reflecting on Tachibana-san’s Future
Recently, I’ve been seeing various opinions about Tachibana-san’s future. Some support his activities, while others have critical views. As someone studying law, I can’t help but be interested in his actions, especially regarding the NHK reception fee issue, which
is a topic that many people are concerned about.
Personal Impressions and Predictions
Tachibana-san is, in a way, a character full of ups and downs. His statements and actions can be quite extreme, often leading to divided opinions. However, I feel that this attitude is also a factor in garnering significant support. Among my friends, some resonate with his opinions, while others do not view them favorably. Observing such diverse reactions shows how much attention he draws. Working part-time at a judicial scrivener’s office has deepened my understanding of law and increased my contemplation on the impact of political activities. Tachibana-san’s emphasis on valuing “the voice of the citizens” is sometimes appreciated from a legal perspective. However, it’s not uncommon for his actions to be viewed as legally problematic. Recently, I had a lively discussion with colleagues about his past statements, where we debated, “What does this mean legally?” while sharing a laugh.
Wishes for the Future
I am unsure about the path Tachibana-san will take in the future, but I hope he gains experiences that contribute to the public. Even if he were to pause his political activities, utilizing his experiences to benefit society would surely hold significant meaning for him. I hope he avoids a path similar to that of Asahara Shoko’s successor, but I do want to commend his efforts to achieve something. Finally, as a still inexperienced law student myself, I am learning various perspectives by observing individuals like Tachibana-san. If you have opinions or experiences related to him, I would love for you to share them in the comments. I’m eager to hear everyone’s thoughts, and by sharing different viewpoints, we might uncover new insights.
