This study focused on the Japanese military’s perception of Western sports from 1873 to 1945, and revealed how and why specific military institution in specific time encouraged or discouraged Western sports. It also referred to the particularities and commonalities of Japanese experience by comparing to several European and North American militaries. It became clear that the shifting masculinities in Japanese society at large affected the degree of promotion and exercise of Western sports in Japanese military.
