Today I take my brother’s place as Emperor.
I’m only ten, even though I’m a dressed man.
It seems the regents are going to be running the political affairs
for a while at my father’s request.
Honestly, it’s better that way, of course.
I don’t know anything about politics or the economy,
all I know are the words.
If such a man were leading the country,
the people would be very worried.
They have given me such a blessing,
but for the moment all I can do is
to sit back in my chair and relax.

We are deeply moved by
the accession of our new Emperor to the throne!
Our sincere wishes for Emperor’s happiness
and for the prosperity of the Imperial Family!
We will always follow you, Emperor!
Hail to the Emperor!

This is the start of Emperor Reigen’s reign.
