The Emperor is the rightful leader of these lands

The Emperor is the rightful leader of these lands.
The Shogun must be overthrown.

Triples over ride singles.
Under the authority of these digits I order your execution under the 3rd article of the code of the warrior.

the only based emperor there ever was tbqh

sucessfully uncucked the imperial throne and made Japan great again

The Meiji Emperor was just a figurhead utilized by anti-Tokugawa warlords.

The last uncucked Emperor was really Go-Daigo back in the Kemmu Restoration of the 1300's.

The Emperor is above such petty business as governing, the shogun is no more than a prime minister, handling the matters of the realm for his lord, and is a necessity of the state.

Pretty cool beard.

A tozama daimyo and imperialist was teaching a class on Meiji, known Emperor.

”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Meiji and accept that he is your absolute king chosen by god, even greater and more powerful than the unifiers of Japan!”

At this moment, a brave, loyalist, pro-isolation fudai daimyo who had served several campaigns of submission against the enemies of Japan and understood the necessity of intrigue politics and fully supported all decisions made by the bakufu stood up and held up an ukiyo-e woodblock print of Edo.

”What is this scenery, baka?

The arrogant tozama smirked quite Chinesely and smugly replied

“An immoral cesspool of a city, beset and held ransom by foreign devils, you stupid aho.”

”Wrong. It's been 260 years since it became the capital, and if it were, as you say, beset by foreigners...then it would no longer be the capital of Japanese culture anymore....”

The tozama was visibly shaken, and dropped his fan and contraband copy of some faggot-ass Dutch book. He stormed out of the room crying those tozama crocodile tears. The same tears tozama cry for the “Emperor” (who today lives in such luxury that he need not even bother with anything resembling power) when they jealously try to undermine the stability of the Tokugawa bakufu. There is no doubt that at this point our tozama, Shimazu Tadayoshi, wished he had pulled himself up by his topknot and become more than an Imperial yes-man. He wished so much that he had a katana to behead himself from embarrassment, but he himself had traded them for Dutch firearms!

The students applauded and all turned fudai that day and accepted the shogun as their lord and savior. A wolf named “Amaterasu Ookami” flew into the room and perched atop the Tokugawa family crest and shed a tear on the chalk. "Sakura" was sung several times, and Tokugawa Ieyasu himself returned from the dead and brought unity and authority throughout the country.

The tozama lost his tenure and fief and was exiled the next day. He shamefully commited sudoku and was reincarnated as a Korean for all eternity.
