Thanks to IHA and all involved for making him work until his grave.

FFS! Just let him retire now.

This is turning into the largest profile case of karoshi ever. Doesn't matter the hours, forcing someone to work until they die is criminal
Goodlucktoyou
Leave them alone

I hope I am wrong, but this sounds like a lead up to something a hell of a lot more serious.

IHA cruel and unusual punishment continues. Let him retire immediately

Even emperors have to work overtime.

But, the Crown Prince "can't" yet......It's still not April 2019 or whenever they scheduled to make the change. It would be blasphemy to actually adapt and do things by feel as opposed to "by the books".
So sad. Hopefully he just needs to relax from the heat bit. Step number one, lose the suit jacket in the heat.

Actually he can, if the Emperor is physically unable to continue his duties the Crown Prince can and has done so in the past.

"He will rest today... and postpone his official duties"
Postpone!? Will he ever have some OT when he gets back to work. Slacker.
