>In April 2020, Hase was accused of "patronizing, sexist behavior and harassment" at the Tsubomi Cafe in Shibuya, Tokyo. In the report, it was outlined that, along with fellow constituents of the Liberal Democratic Party, Hase had been using aggressive behavior towards female staff members, many of which had been abused prior to employment with the cafe. The association aligned with the cafe, Colabo, stated that Hase "touched [a woman's] waist with both his hands when she was working to set up a tent". On his website, Hase denied an allegation made by the organization of sexual assault, but apologized for his behavior.
