Ina sense not too different than the US First Lady- she sort of stands ready as the acme of Japanese Womanhood- and in a ceremonial role- would act as Mistress of Ceremonies for such things as presentations of honors and awards- but has little direct political power ( she is not on coins or stamps, except maybe Family day or anniversaries). She is something of a walking signboard- and is titular head of various associations and charities- like the Japanese equivalent of the Red Cross. More ceremonial than politically active Queen.
