My Take
Honestly, the "Green Juice Prince" nickname is so perfectly on-brand that it almost feels like a marketing genius move in itself — because by the time you're done laughing at it, you realize this guy built a massive direct-sales empire selling barley grass juice while barely out of his twenties. That's not luck, that's a certain kind of relentless, slightly unhinged hustle that you either admire or find exhausting, and I'm somewhere in the middle. The record also includes a February 2019 arrest for evading about 180 million yen in corporate tax and a suspended two-year prison sentence. What keeps people watching is his social media presence: he says whatever's on his mind, the internet periodically loses it over something he posted, and then he just... moves on, totally unfazed. Love him or not, the man is impossible to ignore.
