    Why is Taro Aso weird? I feel like Japan trying to make the ROK into a satellite would be a disaster because Koreans aren't fans of Japan.

      He's comparable to George W Bush in a lot of ways. He's awful at public speaking and notorious for pronouncing words wrong, even really simple ones. He comes from an extremely wealthy family that maintained friendships with a lot of prominent politicians. He has a talent for saying the weirdest, wrongest, most racist or sexist things possible but then try to play it off by saying like he was tired or they're mistakes anyone could make. Like once a few years back he said no one noticed when Weimar Germany became Nazi Germany. One of his more famous statements is "hurry up and die" in regards to Japan's elderly population.

      For some reason he's also the Japanese government's anime ambassador?
