First no Kai (Japanese: ファーストの会) is a Japanese political party. The party was founded in October 2021 as a sister party of Tomin First no Kai, a political party that is based in and only competes in the city of Tokyo.[1][2] Tomin First no Kai is the second largest political party in the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly (behind only the ruling Liberal Democratic Party),[3][4] but the party previously lacked any representation at the national level. Tomin First had previously created a national party called Kibō no Tō before the 2017 general election,[5] but that party merged with the Democratic Party in 2018 to form the Democratic Party for the People.[6]
First no Kai was founded in preparation for the 2021 general election and plans to nominate candidates to run for seats in the House of Representatives (both single-seat and proportional representation) mainly in the city of Tokyo.[7][8]
The party's leader, Chiharu Araki, said in 2021 that First no Kai is "conservative centrist".[2]
