Kazuo Shii

"With Kazuo Shii being the Premier of the newly-established People's Republic of Japan, Japan is being divided into two: the democratic south, ruled by Luna Loud and Emperor Naruhito, and the communist north, ruled by Luan Loud and this guy. Now that's worse than when Korea gets divided back then."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Luan's Takeover
