Japanese Imperial Family
Discussions about the japanese emperor's throne continue, and although the possibility of a female emperor being born is very low, some netizens are still racking their brains for this, and some people even propose the way to combine Prince Yujin and Prince Aikouchi. In fact, if Prince Yujin and Prince Aiko are combined, it will not be a good thing for the 2 parties!
Prince Yujin
The Post-World War II Imperial Family Model stipulates that a Japanese princess who marries a commoner is automatically divorced from the imperial family and becomes a vassal. Theoretically, titles can be retained as long as you marry the royal family, but in fact, the only unmarried male royal family in the royal family, Prince Yujin, was born in 2006 and is currently only 13 years old. So unless you choose not to marry for life, now all the princesses in the royal family will leave the royal family.
Prince Aiko
Before the Meiji Restoration in Japan, it was not uncommon for brothers and sisters to marry, so there was a combination of Aiko and Yujin. Prince Yuhito is 5 years younger than the most recent Prince Aiko of Jinggong, and if it were not for modern society, it would not be impossible for a woman of the concubine line to marry a man of a collateral lineage. It's just that this matter, whether it is for Yujin or Aiko, is not a good thing.

Yujin is the only male heir of the younger generation of the Japanese imperial family, and the pressure he will face in the future to succeed and inherit is certainly not small, and the whole country and even the whole world are watching him. And Aizi, she has the ability and talent, she can choose her own life, marry a commoner, even if she becomes a full-time housewife, the royal dowry is enough for her to live carefree for a lifetime, why do you want to continue to swim in the muddy waters of the royal family?

In any case, in the current situation, Yuhito is definitely the heir of the emperor, and as for Aiko, the possibility of a female emperor is too low. There have been 8 female emperors in Japanese history, but they have all been passed back to their male descendants, that is, the "One Lineage" that is unique in the world in the eyes of the Japanese. This is the biggest reason for Japanese conservatives.
Even if the Japanese could accept Aiko as the daughter of the crown prince to inherit the throne, it would never be possible to accept that her next generation had the right to inherit, and it was almost impossible for a female emperor, let alone a female emperor. Therefore, once Aiko became a female emperor, she could not marry and have no children, and according to the current situation, even if she did become a female emperor, she would still inherit after her.
If we use modern thinking to judge the "preference for sons over daughters" of the Japanese imperial family, it is inevitable that we will be biased. The so-called Wanshi lineage of the Japanese Imperial Family (whether true or false) is passed on to men as a matter of course in their opinion. Although all this is contradictory, the Japanese Imperial Family, as the representative of Japan's spiritual culture, on the one hand, the Japanese Imperial Family represents the inheritance of culture, and it is reasonable and necessary to adhere to tradition, on the other hand, to maintain tradition and keep pace with the times must be carried out at the same time, maintaining a balance between the two, because the Japanese Imperial Family is also a symbol of modern Japan.

In Aiko's case, her best choice is to leave the imperial family, marry a commoner, and simply spend her life, I believe this is also the result that Naruhito and Masako most want to see, as for the Japanese throne, it is better for the Yujin family to worry about it.
If Prince Yujin and Prince Aiko are combined, it will not be a good thing for the two parties!
