Reiwa Shinsengumi leader Taro Yamamoto (49) held a press conference in the Diet on the 28th and explained the circumstances behind why he ended the press conference midway and canceled his appearance on TV specials due to poor health on the night of the 27th, when the House of Representatives election vote count was held. At the start of the press conference, Yamamoto said, “I apologize for last night. I would like to apologize for not being able to complete the press conference due to poor health.” During his final street speech of the election campaign in Tokyo on the 27th, he said, “When I picked up the microphone, I stumbled twice. There were times when I felt like this was a little bit dangerous,” he recalled. Explaining the reason for canceling his appearance on the program, Yamamoto said, “Continuing the interview while feeling unwell means being unable to clearly answer questions about our policies in the short time given, which is a loss for us,” and added, “I’m grateful that the media is so eager to report on the issue just before and after the election, but I wish they wouldn’t do it on a daily basis.” In the early hours of the 15th, the day the announcement was made, he was hospitalized with anaphylactic symptoms. On the day following the House of Representatives election, he was examined again at the hospital and said, “My doctor told me that things were really bad at that time. Anaphylaxis can kill people, so I was on the verge of death. I was told that it’s better not to underestimate it,” he revealed. Yamamoto said, “Ever since I decided I wanted to change the world, I had turned off my own limiter, so I didn’t realize that my engine was burning up. That was the situation. I realized that I needed to put a limiter in place,” he reflected. (Omitted)
