The last two giant pandas at Tokyo's Ueno Zoo, twins Xiao Xiao and Lei Lei, are set to return to China on January 27. The final public viewing will be on January 25, with transportation from Narita Airport. This marks the first time Japan will be without giant pandas since their arrival in 1972.
Online videos featuring Japanese women have been plagiarized and reposted on social media with false Chinese subtitles claiming that Ryukyu, or Okinawa Prefecture, belongs to China. This occurs amid worsening Japan-China relations and appears intended to incite anti-Japanese sentiment while promoting Chinese territorial claims. Similar false anti-China videos have also appeared on Japanese social media.

A strong victory for Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi in the February 8 snap election could prompt China to reconsider its escalating pressure, according to current and former officials and analysts. Weeks after taking office last year, Takaichi sparked the biggest diplomatic dispute with Beijing in over a decade by outlining Tokyo's potential response to a Chinese attack on Taiwan. Beijing has demanded she retract her remarks, which she has refused, leading to retaliatory measures that are beginning to weigh on Japan's economy.
