I think the Graveyard Shift Girl - Toki will be the next Moe Prime Minister of Japan (11th).

As you can see, Saki Party has a strong moe political influence in Japan. We never say that there is a manipulation of votes in AST. Nevertheless, this party is popular among native Japanese voters.

The comparison of Moe Political Influence between Nisemonogatari and Saki Parties in two respective nations (Korea and Japan) are like heaven and earth.

Yep. And it seems like this going to go to the representative from Osaka City. I love their food, I love their attitude, and I love the Toki.

We have recalled the Honnoji Incident, June 1582 where Mitsuhide Akechi forced Nobunaga Oda to commit suicide and this incident remarks Mitsuhide's betrayal against Oda.

Before Akechi began his march toward Honnoji, Kyoto, he held a renga session with several prominent poets. One line he said was as follows:
Toki wa ima, ame ga shitashiru satsukikana. (時は今 雨がした滴る皐月かな)

Literally, it translates to, "The time is now, the fifth month when the rain falls." However, there are several homonyms in the line, such that it could be taken as a double entendre.

An alternate meaning, without changing any of the pronunciations, would be: 土岐は今 天が下治る 皐月かな. In this case, the word Toki, which means "time" in the first version, sounds identical to Akechi's ancestral family name, "Toki". The whole phrase could be construed as "Toki [clan] shall now rule the realm under the sky".

If we speaking about Toki's prediction to win the seat for the Moe Prime Minister of Japan, I've used this extract from this poem with the same romanization but different in Kanji Usage: 怜は今 天が下治る 皐月かな.

It means, Toki (perhaps Toki Onjouji) shall now rule the realm under the sky (Japan). If my prediction is true, it will happen.

* Seriously I want to say that I'm an avid fan of Samurai Warriors video games franchise from Tecmo-Koei Games.
