Page "Prime Minister of Japan" Paragraph 3
from
Wikipedia
The Prime Minister is designated by both houses of the Diet, before the conduct of any other business.
If the two houses choose different individuals, then a joint committee of both houses is appointed to agree on a common candidate.
Ultimately, however, if the two houses do not agree within ten days, the decision of the House of Representatives is deemed to be that of the Diet.
Therefore, the House of Representatives can theoretically ensure the appointment of any Prime Minister it wishes.
