Princess Mako's marriage ended with her surname breaking away from the imperial family, but its impact on the Japanese imperial family, especially the Akishinomiya family, was far from over.
After World War II, "openness" and "close to the people" became the direction of the Japanese Imperial Family's efforts. These two words are expressed in the Akishinogi family as "freedom of education" and "autonomy of marriage". None of Akishinogu's three children were all "study departments", Princess Mako was the first royal to enroll in the International Christian University (ICU), and her sister Princess Yoshiko followed close behind, dropping out of Gakushuin University and becoming the second royal family to enroll in the International Christian University. Prince Yujin is even more unique, and he has never been enrolled in the "Study Academy" series since his studies, and has been running on the road of freedom. Compared with Princess Aizi, who has been walking in the "Learning Academy" series and has never strayed, the three children of the Akishinomiya family can be described as unique. But "freedom of education" also raises a series of questions, namely that they will inevitably have access to people at all levels, and the possibility of the royal family being disgraced by marriage problems like Makoto has greatly increased.

The "small room problem" deviates from the "selfless spirit" of the royal family.
Princess Mako's marriage seems to be just falling in love with a person who is not in the right place, but in fact, the reason why the royal family is so opposed to this marriage is because Princess Mako's "self-centered" insistence deviates from the "selfless spirit" that members of the throne should have.
For thousands of years, the Japanese imperial family has adhered to a tradition that the public is greater than the private, that is, when their own selfish desires deviate from the public interest, they should put the public interest first. It is contrary to Mako's idea of marriage and love that would rather humiliate the royal family than conform to her own heart. What is even more bizarre is that the Akishinomiya family's "emphasis on autonomy" family style is not only reflected in Mako, and the 27-year-old Princess Jiazi has the intention of following in her sister's footsteps.
In 2019, 25-year-old Princess Jiazi finally graduated from college. In an interview with reporters, on the reporter's question about the "other half", Yoshiko said bluntly: "Now, including in the future, I do not intend to answer relevant questions." When asked about her sister Mako's marriage, Yoshiko said, "I hope my sister can fulfill her wishes"... From Yoshiko's answer, it can be seen that she is not only hostile to the media, but also hopes that she can live herself like her sister...

The Qiu Xiaogong family has two generations: leniency towards oneself and strict treatment of others.
The "double standard" of the Qiu Xiaogong family began with Prince Wenren. In 2004, Naruhito, who was still crown prince at the time, lost control of his emotions at a press conference and defended his depressed son Masako, who was forced to be depressed, and was publicly criticized by Prince Wenren, pointing out Naruhito's "personality denial speech".
Coincidentally. In 2018, Prince Wenren became skeptical of the "Great Tasting Festival" that belonged only to the emperor. The Great Tasting Festival is an important part of the emperor's enthronement ceremony, only once in a generation of emperors, and the core link is carried out by the emperor himself, and outsiders cannot know. The Great Tasting Festival is arguably the most important part of maintaining the occultism of the emperor and the imperial system. Prince Fumihito, who was suspicious of the Great Tasting Festival, probably wondered what the ceremony that belonged only to the Emperor was like.
A ceremony that publicly denounced his brother and publicly suspected that it belonged only to the emperor, Prince Wenren should be the first person of the Chrysanthemum Dynasty.
What can a child raised by such a father look like?
We sympathize with Princess Mako's inability to marry herself, and we also hope that she and Kei Komuro will achieve true happiness. However, from Mako's speech at the press conference on the day of her wedding, we can also see the family style of the Akishinomiya family of "attaching importance to autonomy".
Princess Mako also revealed her true feelings at the wedding press conference, and she divided the island people into two camps, "enemies" and "friends", and thanked the "friends" who supported her. As everyone knows, her so-called "enemies" are just people who are worried about what kind of life their princess will face after marriage, and some people who really care about her.

Is Yuren, who lives in a family that deviates from the "selfless spirit" of the royal family, really qualified to inherit the throne?
It is rumored that because of Mako's marriage, the relationship between the Akishinomiya family has become particularly tense. Yujin, who had been spoiled and raised by The Wenren and his wife, began to worry about whether the marriage of his sister Mako would affect his future succession to the throne.
Sure enough, what kind of father there is, there is what kind of child. The five people of the Qiu Xiao Palace family, each of them was playing their own small calculations, totaling their own interests, and none of them really wanted to pay for the royal family. If Fumihito is concerned about the face of the royal family, she will not publicly criticize Naruhito, if Mako does not want to disgrace the royal family, she will not risk the world to marry Kei Komuro, if Kaneko has a royal family in her heart, she will not rebel from childhood and let the whole family wipe her ass for her... Imagine what yujin would look like when everyone grew up in a family where everyone only thinks about themselves? It is estimated that I only have myself in my eyes and heart, otherwise I would not have insisted on going my own way, and I would have "taken the back door" to attend the Affiliated High School of the University of Tsukuba...
The most important point for people in high positions is to have a big picture view, to have the world in mind, and to put "everyone" above the "small self". The Wenren family obviously did not have such an enlightenment.
The so-called "upper beam is not right and lower liang is crooked", although Wen Ren is the imperial heir of a country, he does not have the character that an imperial heir should have, and the children will naturally learn from each other, and none of them will pay attention to the overall situation of the royal family.
Do people who only think of themselves really have the right to inherit the throne?
