* RedeemingReplacement: Fukuda is seen as an improvement by Guangdong's leadership, due to his willingness to work alongside private enterprise and his goals of liberalizing the economy, even if he won't fully adopt the Guangdong model and there is still some reluctant to give the Big Five a seat at the table.

* TheEmpire: Being the dominant power in East Asia and the Pacific Ocean, the Japanese Empire reigns over the largest population in the world, enforced by the IJA. Higashukuni's 1959 Army Reform and Rationalisation Budget has toned down the IJA's presence in their subjugated territory, which can either increase or decrease, depending on the outcome of Japan's proxy wars in Asia.

* TheEmpire: Being the dominant power in East Asia and the Pacific Ocean, the Japanese Empire reigns over the largest population in the world, enforced by the IJA. The Sphere hosts various puppet states subject to Japan and, in some places, colonies with national identities that have only been conjured up decades prior. Higashukuni's 1959 Army Reform and Rationalisation Budget has toned down the IJA's presence in their subjugated territory, which can either increase or decrease, depending on the outcome of Japan's proxy wars in Asia.Asia.
* EvilColonialist: Beneath their veneer of pan-Asianism and liberation of the continent, Japan is an imperialist nation that has turned East Asia into their playground, with its nations subject to the Home Isles' whims. If one of their vassals gets too defiant, Japan can just send the IJA to quash it. Japan's main vassals in China, Manchuria, and Guangdong are all expected to satisfy their master's demands, growing their economies and delivering resources for Japan's benefit and at the expense of their native people.



* MegaCorp: There are several major ''Zaibatsu'' in Japan, which hold significant power and prop up a large portion of the economy of the Sphere, so no economic reform can pass without their say so.
* MinorCrimeRevealsMajorPlot: The Tokyo Metropolitan Police's investigation into the embezzlement of state funds by the Minezaka trading company inadvertently explodes into an investigation of corporate crimes across several zaibatsus and political corruption across the Japanese government. This wounds up collapsing the Yasuda zaibatsu, plunging the Tokyo Stock Exchange by 40% in a day, and triggering a political crisis directly affecting PM Funada Naka.

so. The ''zaibatsu'' are so entrenched in the establishment that many other Japanese companies have to do business elsewhere in the Sphere, like in Guangdong.
* TheMigration: After the catastrophic Yasuda Crisis [[spoiler:and Oil Crisis]], many of the less fortunate Japanese citizens lose their homes and are forced to migrate to Guangdong for better prospects there.

This wounds up collapsing the Yasuda zaibatsu, plunging the Tokyo Stock Exchange by 40% in a day, and triggering a political crisis directly affecting PM Funada Naka. The crisis extends its reach to the rest of the Sphere, where China, Manchuria, and Guangdong must face the disaster alone, since Japan is too overextended to help them.

Added DiffLines:

* WeHaveBecomeComplacent: The zaibatsu, which dominate the Japanese economy, have gotten arrogant and self-assured from their success. This makes them vulnerable for the Chief Executive in Guangdong to pump out superior products to them and supplant the zaibatsu as the top corporation.

* LesserOfTwoEvils: A lot of genuine anti-colonialist movements in Africa and Latin America see through Japan's pan-Asian rhetoric and recognize them as an imperialist nation who would subjugate them, if they could. However, in an expression of {{Realpolitik}}, they will reluctantly accept Japanese aid whenever they aggress on OFN interests that have been meddling in their countries, preferring a temporary truce over trying to fight the United States alone.

* HatedByAll: In Central Asia, Japan is loathed by virtually every country, owing to their ties with Iran and Afghanistan, two of the region's biggest rivals. Notably, while the United States and Germany have a horse in the race to Central Asian unification, Japan has nobody to use as a proxy and the best they can do is sabotage the Turkes Kenes negotiations and protect their existing international partners.

* RegimeChange:
** When the French authority in Madagascar implodes, Japan sends support to the Malagasy insurgents, hoping to install a friendly politician on the island and add them to the Sphere. Their mission will be a success if Madagascar is controlled by Andriamahazo, Ratsimandrava, Jaona, or Rabemananjara.
** If the Jamaican independence referendum was rejected by the United States, the West Indies Federation falls victim to anti-American, Black Power riots and Japan eagerly supports them, hoping to fracture the Federation in the process.
** Japan will back numerous pan-African and anti-colonialists movements in Africa, including the PALF in West Africa, the Popular Republic in the Congo, and the People's Liberation Army in Mozambique. Everyone knows that Japan doesn't care about the pan-Africanists' goals, but they are seen as politically useful to eliminate the existing pro-OFN governments on the continent.

* ParentalFavoritism: Between China, Manchuria, and Guangdong, Japan favors the former two as their most as the crown jewels of their empire, being their biggest vassals and giving them a permanent seats on the Sphere Governing Council. By contrast, Japan has little respect for Guangdong, considering them a tiny upstart whose affairs are largely ignorable and without consequence. Japan will only start to respect Guangdong if their economy can outpace Manchuria's.

* NotSoInvincibleAfterAll:
** At the game's start, Japan starts as a juggernaut in East Asia, owning an expansive colonial empire that spans across China, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific. It seems like the only way to stop them is through nuclear war, which would never realistically happen without also bringing doom to all of human civilization. However, there is one way to knock Japan off their pedestal in the first decade: Long Yun's Western Insurrection. In the hands of a skilled player, Long Yun could defeat the Wang regime in mainland China, recruit the other Chinese warlords to his cause, and surmount a difficult war against the entire Sphere. In the optimal scenario, Long Yun can liberate China all the way up to Korea (any further will trigger nuclear war) and severely reduce Japan's influence on the world stage.
** At the end of the first decade, it's hinted that Japan's title as a superpower will not go unchallenged. Modernizing rapidly within this timeframe, China is becoming a rival to Japan and their palpable tension does not go unnoticed by the rest of the world. Nothing has happened yet, but the conflict to come will pose a serious threat to the once-unstoppable Japanese empire.

Japan will only start to respect Guangdong if their economy can outpace Manchuria's.



* {{Realpolitik}}: Underneath all their rhetoric, Japan's support for the (genuinely anti-imperialist) Pan-African Liberation Front is motivated by geopolitical concerns and resources more than anything. In an event, when a Cameroonian journalist asks a Japanese bureaucrat why Japan supports the PALF, the latter, for a brief second, wants to candidly tell the truth before snapping back and giving the same expected rote answer.
