Tokugawa clan looks to slam the gate on future chief's marriage to foreigner

Modern day members of the Tokugawa clan -- the xenophobic dynasty of Shoguns that shut Japan off from the world for centuries -- are up in arms because the man set to one day become head of the family has married a non-Japanese, according to Shukan Shincho (9/20).

Iehiro Tokugawa, who is poised to one day become the 19th head of the clan that ruled the country as Shoguns from 1603 to 1868 and maintained a rigid ban on foreigners entering Japan, has tied the knot with a Vietnamese woman.

Best quote: "She comes from a good family. She's petite and pretty. She's a complete contrast to Iehiro."

Two things strike me about this story. One is that it's supposed to be a secret and yet it has traveled from a J-publication to Waiwai and the other is that it was written by Marvin. This immediately calls the sources into question, as they are undoubtably from any one of a serious number of pubs in the greater Tokyo area!

Sorry!

Since when has WaiWai ever been taken seriously? I call shenanigans...

Sounds like someone is still having trouble coming to terms with the Meiji Restoration.

We Japanse and Vietnamise should absolutely use this marriage as the way of Japan-Vietman friendship.

Tokugawa is already only one of numerous previous aristocrats.
(by the way in my hign school days, there is one female Tokugawa student in the same grade. but she is only an ugly ganguro slut.)
You should distinguish between holy Chysanthemum clan and mere previous elite samurai clan.
Holy Chrysanthemum clan is god who have human figure.
We never allow one of Chysanthemum clan to get married with non-Japanese.

But having sex with non-Japanese is OK right? Just was worried about the princess from her college days...

Yet it was acceptable for Emperor Konin (709-782) to have a son with a Korean concubine, Takano no Niigasa, and for that son to become the next on the Chrysanthemum Throne, Emperor Kammu (737-806), so that every Emperor of Japan afterwards or in the last 1200 years became part Korean. This is recorded in Shoku Nihongi and elaborated by Emperor Akihito:

Takechan will ignore what you wrote and merely post a video of some foreigner being a jackass in an izakaya.
