My Take
I'll be honest, Hirofumi Ryu isn't the kind of politician who jumps off a screen at you, and I kind of love that about him. The man's a Fukuoka City kid who went through Shuyukan High and then Keio's Faculty of Letters, which is a quietly impressive, deeply unflashy resume, the path of someone who reads the whole document instead of just the headline. I picture him as more of a craftsman than a showman, the type who'd rather win an argument with a tidy line of reasoning than out-shout anyone on a talk show. There's a Kyushu steadiness in him, the sort of person voters trust precisely because he's not trying to dazzle them. Substance over sparkle, and I'm here for it.
