Why does it matter who or what Kei Komuro is?
The story about Kei Komuro only enrages people that pay tax in Japan or cares about the tradition of a Royal Family. The royal family lives off of tax dollars. Regardless of what the couple says, princess Mako’s savings, housing, security is all provided by the Japanese tax dollars. As we speak, they are “temporarily” living in an apartment in Tokyo that costs $10,000/month. Kei Komuro had security with him at all times during his stay in New York.

He bullied at least 2 class mates, and one of them had to quit the school. Such a man got married with our princess — This is the most unacceptable matter for us who have kept respecting our Imperial Household. This is a moral hazard.
Before leaving Japan, Komuro Kei & Princess Mako had a press conference, but they only repeated there’s no problem, they were right, they were victims, they haven’t exercised Imperial privilege. However they neither explain any reason nor show any evidence. In foreign countries, people consider that the Princess threw away money and chose to live with her loved one, but it’s not true, huge amount money is supplied to the couple underground. Now many Japanese people began to feel that they can’t trust Imperial System as they did before.
