Taidō Tanose

Taidō Tanose is one of those politicians whose career arc reads almost too neatly: Waseda degree, a father who was a senior Liberal Democratic Party figure, a secretary role in dad's office, then his own seat in the House of Representatives once dad stepped back. Nara's third district, science and technology policy, state minister — a tidy climb up the ladder. And then 2021 happened. Visiting a Ginza nightclub during the pandemic state of emergency and then apparently not being straightforward about it is exactly the kind of self-inflicted stumble that makes you wonder what the cost-benefit calculation was. He resigned from the LDP over it. Whether he's a cautionary tale or just a guy who had one very bad judgment call, I genuinely can't say — but the nightclub thing will follow him longer than any ministry post.
