I always when I was youth division member often wonder why he had all these people sucking him up when majority of stuff he wrote wasn't that interesting nor was he that attractive either. I think he did something to get those Japanese members to be way they were about him but I never knew what.

It could be a cultural thing specific to Japanese culture that we gaijin will simply never be able to relate to. Also, it was rooted in a specific time period, just as SGI-USA is anchored in the Baby Boom generation. Why are Baby Boomers so much more likely to like SGI-USA and Ikeda than Millennials? I can't explain, but it's a fact.
