Rebranding and controversy of Inochi no To party

Overview

The Japanese political party Reiwa Shinsengumi rebranded as ‘Inochi no To’ following the resignation of Taro Yamamoto. The new representative, Joji Yamamoto, noted that the party had become too dependent on Taro Yamamoto’s personal charisma. During the transition, the party called for sincere communication and urged supporters to avoid online slander, though this request was met with skepticism by Vice Representative Fumiyo Okuda.

Following the rebranding, the party faced significant controversy. A group of former members and secretaries known as ‘Yamere-kai’ launched a campaign against the leadership of Joji Yamamoto. The group has alleged the misappropriation of secretary salaries and potential violations of the Public Offices Election Act. Some former members have reportedly provided information to investigative authorities and filed criminal complaints, claiming that internal organizational issues persisted despite the name change.
