《Akoku Nippo》 - Akoku Nippon

Japanese: 《亜国日報》 - あこくにっぽう
《Akoku Nippo》 - Akoku Nippon


[After World War II]
After the war, in San Francisco, Nichibei Jiji, a newspaper of the same lineage as Nichibei, was revived in May 1946, while Hokubei Mainichi, a newspaper of the same lineage as the prewar Shinsekai Asahi (the successor to Shinsekai, founded in 1894), was launched in February 1948. In Los Angeles, the Rafu Shimpo was relaunched, and in Hawaii, where newspaper publication continued even during the war, the Hawaii Times (formerly the Yamato Shimbun, founded in 1895, which renamed Nippu Jiji in 1942) and Hawaii Hochi, founded in 1912, among others, continued to operate, and the world of Japanese-language newspapers was rapidly rebuilt and expanded (the Hawaii Times was later discontinued). In Latin America, there are several Japanese-language newspapers, such as Argentina's Akoku Nippo (first published in 1947), La Plata Hochi (first published in 1948), and Brazil's São Paulo Shimbun (first published in 1945). However, with the first-generation population declining and the era of the third-generation approaching, many newspapers have adapted to the changes, such as by establishing English and Spanish columns as standard since before the war, but the significance of Japanese-language newspapers is fading, and they are facing many difficulties, including a gradual decline in readership and an overwhelming shortage of young reporters who can write in Japanese.
