    I know that his son is an actor for J-Dramas, but I’d never have thought that he himself would be back for a cameo voice actor… o_O

    According to Reuters, he said that his son wants him to be participating and it’s “not related to politics so it should be ok”.

    While he is one of the longer reigning PM as of recent times, Junichiro Koizumi is rather notorious in the neighbouring countries, especially with his annual visits to the Yasukuni Shrine.
