A newly established political party in Japan, known as "Chudo", faces an early existential crisis mere three weeks since its establishment. The party, which initially aimed to target the middle ground in Japanese politics, is now grappling with uncertainty due to significant logistical issues and internal disputes. The future of Chudo remains to be seen as it maneuvers its way through political turbulence.

In Japan, politics are often seen as a sphere of long-established parties, and thus, establishing a new party represents a big step that requires robust planning and a strong base. Therefore, a new party facing a crisis in its nascent stage would attract public attention, with people interested in its survival tactics, leadership, and direction. The crisis can also serve as an alert for any others intending to establish new parties to be well-prepared.

In comparison to the US or EU, political parties in Japan are generally more stable and less likely to dissolve or merge. In the US and EU, the focus is often more on individual candidates rather than the brand of the party itself. Therefore, often, internal disputes in these countries are resolved differently, sometimes leading to independent candidatures.
