Miss Japan (Japanese: ミスジャパン) is a national beauty pageant in Japan. The pageant first ran from 1952 to 1995 and was led by Yoshinaga (Japanese-American Press). In 2019, the Miss Japan pageant returned with Akihiro Yoshida, Takako Hashimura, Ichiro Tahara and Takahide Kitai, from the HDR Corporation, all as senior directors. The HDR Corporation started the new Miss Japan competition after they lost the franchises for both Miss Universe and Miss Earth.

The HDR Corporation also operates the Miss and Mister Supranational contest.
