Some may still be able to exploit data collected before the pandemic, others might have turned to other sources and methods, such as digita- lized content or quantitative surveys. In any case, the toll of the pandemic on Japanese Studies can be especially felt in the field of qualitative research, which has traditionally been applied by a large portion of the work published in our journal. Fortunately for CJ, the impact on submissions has not been as strong as one would have expected or feared. In 2021, we received 34 research article submissions from scholars across the world, including North America, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Africa. CJ was also able to again increase its CiteScore number for articles published between 2018 and 2021 to 1.2 in 2021, up from 0.9 in 2020.
