shido's conspiracy is big: koenkai (supporters associations) in japanese politics

How do you take over Japan, if you're a corrupt piece of shit?

On 11/25, when the Shido's Palace mission starts and you're finally released from captivity in Leblanc, the Modest Housewife in the Shibuya underground mall suddenly becomes the Not-So-Modest Housewife. And what does she tell us?

shido has a what now

What's the "supporters association"? In Japanese, it's a 後援会 kouenkai. From Wikipedia:

Koenkai (後援会, lit. "local support groups") are an invaluable tool of Japanese Diet members, especially of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). (note: in P5, this is the "Liberal Co-Prosperity Party" or LCP, Shido's original party and the original ruling party.) These groups serve as pipelines through which funds and other support are conveyed to legislators and through which the legislators can distribute favors to constituents in return.

The article is fascinating; do give it a read, as I can't possibly do it justice here. These are massive organisations, and relay vast amounts of cash to their members. They organise endless activities for their members—that meeting at the Wilton Hotel on 5/5 is one. They often require a personal connection to be invited, which is why the Housewife says this to her friend:

... she knows she wasn't invited.

Though koenkai are weaker in modern times, there are many examples of them being involved with corruption; here are a couple.

"The Asahi reported in the mid-1970s that the [koenkai of former Prime Minister Tanaka Kakuei] "virtually controls… agricultural committees, popular welfare committees, election management committees". This thorough penetration of Tanaka's koenkai into all important facets of Niigata's people's lives propelled him into becoming the father figure of the district. After his arrest in 1976 on corruption charges, many of Niigata's residents still expressed deep respect towards him."

"Due to the huge support [former Prime Minister] Takeshita Noboru enjoyed as a result of his koenkai, his electoral district in Shimane came to be known as ‘Takeshita Kingdom'. Despite being embroiled in many political scandals, related to insider trading and corruption (for which he was never charged), Takeshita's immense local support never waned."

so what does this tell us

In short, Shido's conspiracy is not a few corrupt high-level officials. It's not just Shido, Akechi, the SIU Director and those people on the ship. It is a vast organisation.

It recruits people by reputation (remember those five recommendations in the Palace?) from all levels of society—and those recruits then operate as a bloc, networking, doing favours for each other, advancing their mutual interests, connected via a hierarchy to Shido at the top. This is why Shido can control everything.

It also explains why everyone seems to be linked to the conspiracy—including the hapless Principal Kobayakawa. Did you think it was unrealistic for him to be involved? It seems likely that he was just a low-level member of Shido's koenkai.

When Shido needed someone at Shujin to investigate the Phantom Thieves, Kobayakawa was there—because they have people everywhere. A quick phone call from a higher-up in the organisation—the SIU Director, most likely, who we know Kobayakawa speaks to—and he's eating out of Shido's hand. And will do anything he wants....

So Kobayakawa wasn't anybody at all. He wasn't important. He wasn't somehow part of the deep state. He was just one of likely hundreds of thousands of paid-up Shido supporters looking to advance themselves, getting the vote out, and funding the cause.

He was in the right place at the right time. After all, the koenkai got Kobayakawa his job at Shujin. All his hopes for advancement are centred on it:

Because just like the two housewives in the underground mall, and probably like everyone else in the koenkai, Kobayakawa is a desperate social climber, impressed by wealth and fame and power and flashy titles.

I hope he thought it was worth it.

Zaprezentowano pierwszy pełny zwiastun Solo Leveling

Hej! Świeże wieści dla fanów Solo Leveling! Właśnie podczas wydarzenia Aniplex Online Fest 2023 zaprezentowano pierwszy pełny zwiastun anime na podstawie manhwy napisanej przez Chugonga i rysowanej przez zmarłego DUBU z REDICE Studio. Ale to nie wszystko! Do obsady dołączyła Haruna Mikawa w roli Aoi Mizushino (siostra Shuna Mizushino - w japońskiej wersji to zmienione imię Sung Jinwoo).

Za kilka kluczowych elementów anime odpowiedzialni będą:

Projekt postaci drugoplanowych: Chiaki Furuzumi

Projekt potworów: Hirotaka Tokuda

Projekt rekwizytów: Sotaro Shiraishi

Reżyser ds. sztuki: Yasuhiro Okumura

Kolorystyka: Naomi Nakano

VFX: Daichi Iseki

CG: Toshitaka Morioka

Grafiki ruchome: Hiromu Ōshiro z Production I.G

Montaż: Yūji Kondō

Reżyser dźwięku: Ryō Tanaka

Jeśli chodzi o główną obsadę, to w roli Sung Jinwoo (w wersji japońskiej Shun Mizushino) wystąpi Taito Ban. Do tego dołączą Reina Ueda, Hiroki Touchi, Genta Nakamura, Daisuke Hirakawa, Banjou Ginga i Makoto Furukawa.

Pamiętajcie, że anime zadebiutuje już podczas nadchodzącej zimy, najpewniej w styczniu 2024! Crunchyroll po raz pierwszy ogłosiło adaptację tej serii podczas swojego panelu na Anime Expo w lipcu 2022.

Jak opisuje Crunchyroll fabułę: od ponad dekady istnieją "bramy" łączące nasz świat z innym wymiarem. Pewni ludzie przebudzili w sobie nadnaturalne moce i są znani jako "łowcy". Jinwoo Sung, łowca niskiej rangi, jest znany jako "najsłabszy łowca wszech czasów". Pewnego dnia przyjmuje tajemnicze zadanie i po tym, gdy był bliski śmierci... zaczyna zdobywać poziomy, jako jedyny łowca na świecie.

Za reżyserię odpowiada Shunsuke Nakashige, a głównym scenarzystą jest Noboru Kimura. Tomoko Sudo zajmuje się projektowaniem postaci, a Hiroyuki Sawano - komponowaniem muzyki.

Crunchyroll będzie transmitować anime poza Azją. A jeśli chodzi o manhwę, jej adaptacja zaczęła się w marcu 2018 i zakończyła w grudniu 2021. Oczywiście możemy też cieszyć się japońską wersją pod tytułem "Ore Dake Level-Up na Ken".

To na tyle na dzisiaj! Trzymajcie rękę na pulsie, bo Solo Leveling na pewno przyniesie jeszcze wiele emocji! 💥
