World Travels
From his own account, Otsuji was unhappy with university education. Reflecting on his youth as en elderly politician, he noted the social unrest at the time and protests against the government of Prime Minister Kishi, and said that lectures were rarely held and there was no worthwhile education to be had.

In 1971 he returned to Japan and officially withdrew from Tokyo University and returned to Kagoshima.
