Hi how are you? How did you like the cheering song for Sanae Takaichi, the first female presidential candidate running in the Japanese Prime Minister nomination election on October 21st, 2025?
Sanae Takaichi is Japan’s first female leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, known for her firm conservative values combined with a forward-looking vision for national innovation.
She advocates for strong national security, economic resilience, and technological advancement, while also breaking long-standing gender barriers in Japanese politics.
Japan’s new face of conservative reform and female leadership
Sanae Takaichi is a bold and determined conservative who has reshaped Japan’s political landscape with her uncompromising vision and leadership.
Often described as a “reformist conservative,” she stands out for her confidence, clarity, and passion for Japan’s future.

A reform-minded conservative “Sanae” breaking barriers in Japanese politics. So cheer her on!
Following President Trump’s congratulatory message, she also received a similar email from the 79th Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bencent.
Now, let’s list the main exclusionary groups whose foundations of Japanese politics are being shaken by these sharp remarks from Ms. Takaichi:
★ The broadcasting industry’s vested interest groups: She has declared, “It is abnormal that public airwaves are monopolized by certain media outlets at bargain prices.”
She advocates introducing spectrum auctions, directly challenging the long-taboo profit structure of the media.
★ Medical regulatory groups: She directly counters the system that continues restricting online consultations and over-the-counter drug sales, stating, “It’s the public who suffers because of this.” Unfazed by pressure from medical associations, she is seriously pushing to overhaul the outdated system.
★ Teachers’ Union: Advocating that “education should be neutral,” it questions biased instruction and political activities by some unions. Championing the normalization of education, it boldly confronts the “untouchable group.”
★ Pro-China Business Group: It states, “National security must not be sold for corporate profit,” sounding the alarm on dependence on China. Their stance of strongly challenging Keidanren and major business circles was precisely a move prioritizing national interests.
★ It’s a political privilege structure supported by factions and bureaucrats: She declared, “I will not follow factions,” showing her resolve to sever collusion with bureaucrats and the media.
Now—listen to the cry of the Japanese soul that has been building up in our hearts
This initial support blog centers on the 1.03 million yen income threshold issue, which sparked protests demanding the dismantling of the Ministry of Finance amid numerous grievances against it.
Throughout the presidential election period, television talk shows consistently adopted the stance of “Shinjiro, popular with the public.” Yet online, on social media platforms, such posts were rarely seen.
Furthermore, while the runoff vote appeared to reflect public support, the problem lies with television broadcasters who persistently delivered biased coverage that seemed solely aimed at “promoting Shinjiro” or “undermining Takaichi.” Such media outlets should be removed from the airwaves.
Finally, this is a song of support for Sanae Takaichi as she works to reform Japan. Let’s fight together!
Thanks for watching, have a nice day！
