Why do the aliens keep choosing such sexy bodies?

The prime minister's character design looked to tough, young and muscular. The scene would have been more impactful if he looked like a typical prime minister (older, not as much muscle mass, less manly face and eyebrows) because the prime minister's bravery would have meant more and been more impressive and made more impact if it came from someone who looked like a typical prime minister. Someone who looks like the guy in the manga you expect to be brave because he looks like he's retired from the army or fire department or something.

The Prime Minister's words here are important. He says that just like usual, it's the "capable comrades" who actually make the decisions and his job is to act like he is the one who made the decision, bearing the full brunt of responsibility for it whether it succeeds or fails. That is not a black-and-white statement and isn't as wholesome as you think. He is essentially admitting that he is just a figurehead, and the real power lies somewhere else.

But that statement is actually very realistic, since that's what our own prominent "world leaders" are: both a convenient figure to cling to for those that a policy benefits, and a convenient scapegoat for those disadvantaged by it. The real policymakers are basically untouchable and oftentimes you don't even know who they are.
