right|thumb|360px|Zaitokukai demonstrating in support of withholding the right of non-citizens to vote in Shinjuku on January 24, 2010 Zaitokukai, full name , is an ultra-nationalist and far-right extremist political organization in Japan, which calls for an end to state welfare and alleged privileges afforded to Koreans in Japan. It has been described by the National Police Agency as a potential threat to public order due to its "extreme nationalist and xenophobic" ideology.
Its membership is 9,000 as of 2010. Vice News called them "J-racism's hottest new upstarts" in 2014. The group is considered by critics to be an anti-Korean extremist hate group, and have been compared to neo-Nazis.
