Head of the Executive and a member of the Legislature

A prefectural governor is "the head of the administrative branch. On the other hand, to be a member of the Diet is to be "a member of the legislative branch. That's the job of making laws.

So, being a governor or a mayor and being a congressman are two different jobs that are so different that you could call it a "career change."...

If you have a specific thing you want to do, there's not much of a mix of executive and legislative. If there is, it's when you want to be a politician, no matter what. If you want to win elections anywhere.
