This is in response to
lone_cat's request for more on the life of Isao Kobayashi, who was introduced in "The Most Powerful, Master Emotion". It is based on
ysabetwordsmith's and my exploration of current T-Japanese culture, and my own extrapolations from this into the next twenty years. Content describing events prior to its November 2015 posting has been vetted and may be considered canonical. Events beyond that date are extrapolated from current conditions and trends, and are subject to revision as future events in Terremagne and T-Japan become known.
WARNING: This work is a future obituary of a Japanese citizen. Although the style is primarily journalistic, rather than graphic, many of the major events in T-Japan during his life are mentioned, some of which⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠ refer to events readers may find distressing. Hovering over the warning triangles will reveal what lies beneath. Please consider your tastes and headspace before deciding to read this.

I've got another bit of demi(science)fiction lined up, that will fill in the holes in Kobayashi-san's bio. As of the time of the obit, though, that's secret history. Stay tuned...
