Japanese far-right political extremist organization


Seikijuku (正氣塾, "Sane Thinkers School") is a far right[1] Japanese imperialist group based in Nagasaki Prefecture, founded in 1981. The group was responsible for a number of violent incidents, including the 1990 near-fatal shooting of the mayor of Nagasaki Hitoshi Motoshima who stated that Emperor Shōwa was responsible for the war.[2] In 1984, the group disrupted a Fuji TV recording session with flares.[3]
