Sanae Takaichi has served as Japan’s prime minister since October 2025 and secured a historic LDP supermajority in the February 2026 snap election, delivering the party’s largest postwar Lower House seat total. As of late August 2026, official records show her actively managing cabinet business, including responses to the Kumamoto earthquake, North Korean missile launches, and diplomatic engagements, while preparing a September cabinet reshuffle to strengthen her position ahead of the next LDP presidential contest. Recent polling places her approval in the mid-to-high 40s to mid-50s, reflecting some softening from earlier peaks but no collapse that would trigger coalition fractures or leadership challenges. With the LDP holding commanding majorities and no scheduled elections or term-limit pressures before year-end, traders see negligible near-term risk of her departure.
