Morita served as the successor to the previous Prime Minister Shinzou MOTOI, but his passive, overly cautious approach caused anxiety among his peers.
Morita assumed office as Prime Minister following the resignation of Shinzou MOTOI.
He is often criticized for his avoidance tendencies and lack of deep critical thinking.
Morita prides himself on his ability to view himself objectively, though those around him feel otherwise.
At the beginning of the Self-Defense Force's deployment, Morita narrowed the government’s objectives.
He shifted the mission from defeating the Empire and holding those responsible for the Ginza Incident accountable, to simply securing the "Gate" and defending against the military forces from the Special Region.
Ultimately, Morita fell into China's political trap.
He planned to hand over the management of the "Gate" to the United Nations Security Council in order to escape personal responsibility.
Morita's attempts to avoid blame backfired spectacularly.
With the coordinated submission of resignations from every cabinet minister except Kihonoki, and the approval of all major factions within the ruling party secured by Tarō Kanō, Morita lost his power and was removed from office.
In both the original novel and manga adaptation, Morita is portrayed with features reminiscent of former Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda, both in appearance and manner of speech.
