According to a report by Japan's “Women Itself” magazine on August 29, Japan's “Weekly Bunshun” published a report on the 18th entitled “The Other Side” that Prime Minister Takaichi did not show when shooting a “promotional video” in the disaster area — the head of the group of victims of the explosion called him “the most indifferent prime minister in history”, which sparked controversy. The report attempted to unravel the “other side” of Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae, using events such as the “soundtrack video” released during the Kumamoto earthquake and the transfer of Ministry of Finance officials due to consumption tax cuts. Among them, what received the most attention was that Takaichi Sanae allegedly secretly met with Japan's “Yomiuri Shimbun” chief writer Oikawa Shoichi at the Prime Minister's residence on August 5 to seek “countermeasures for mainstream newspapers.”
