An education maverick Mr. Yamazaki retires

Akihiko Yamazaki retired from his job as a principal of the middle school in Fukuoka, Japan in March 2024. He shared a story where he did an autograph signing using a popular actor Shun Oguri's name, then a mother of the student was a fan of the actor, got upset and complained to him "what the heck are you doing?!!" so he had to change the name to Sho Sakurai, one of the Arashi members, at his following regular signings. The news reports 200 students showed up during the 20-minutes autograph signing. https://youtu.be/xFxsGpYPgY4?si=DZTG1h9DQT5v-f8r
