A rising “Japan-first” party is pushing stricter immigration rules, backed by public support, while foreigners like Nikki Maruschak face daily hostility, even after violent attacks. Meanwhile, tourism booms, creating economic tension with local backlash. The result? A nation in paradox—needing immigrants, yet pushing them out, leaving many to question if they belong.
