"THIS IS MY FACE": Leaving no stone uncovered in this blog's non-stop coverage of political news from the Iwate Prefecture, I am compelled to report that Iwate Gov. Hiroya Masuda has announced his disapproval of The Great Sasuke's mask-wearing:
"I'm sure it's a matter of opinion, but I think he should take the mask off," Masuda said. "Politicians make painful decisions, and also express joy, and voters look at their faces and decide (whether they accept those actions). Voters should be allowed to see a politician's facial expressions."

Full article is here.

It is worth noting that Gov. Masuda is described on his official profile as "tolerant". Ahem.
