^ A: The party is commonly seen in Japanese and Western media as centre-right.[16] The party is sometimes described as far-right by South Korean outlets,[17] but Japanese voters perceive the party as centrist.

The Japan Innovation Party (日本維新の会, Nippon Ishin no Kai, Japan Restoration Association)[a] is a conservative[18][19] and centre-right[14][15] to right-wing populist[6][7] political party in Japan.[20] Formed as Initiatives from Osaka in October 2015 from a split in the old Japan Innovation Party, the party became the third-biggest opposition party in the National Diet following the 2016 House of Councillors election.

The party advocates decentralization,[18] federalism (Dōshūsei),[citation needed] free education,[21] and limited government policies.[7] Arguing to remove defense spending limits, and standing with the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) on revising the constitution,[22] the party gained conservative support during the 2021 general election, primarily in Osaka.[20]

Nippon Ishin no Kai embodies a unique form of right-wing populism distinct from the traditional one. Rather than espousing extreme nationalist and social conservative ideologies, Ishin no Kai opposes the LDP's entrenched control over Japanese politics and bureaucracy, known as the 1955 system.[23][24][25]
