[Koiho]

I am deeply flattered by my nomination. It brings honor not only to me, but also to my family and all those who have come all this way with me, step-by-step at my side. It brings me joy that we could make it this far in this harsh life we live. I am greatly touched not only by my nomination being present here, but that I would be nominated for such a high office such as the chancellor. That one wise, forward-thinking, kind-hearted person would consider granting me the keys and responsibilities to carry the office on my shoulder like the air above the wings of a soaring hawk brings to me an indescribable emotion. I wouldn't be the person I am today without the overwhelming support of my fans.
However, I decline. Thanks!
