Japan wants to host the World Cup again as early as 2035, the country's rugby union chief said, potentially bringing it back to Asia for a second time.
Japan became the first country outside rugby's traditional heartlands to stage the tournament in 2019, when they stunned Ireland and Scotland to reach the quarterfinals.
They were knocked out by eventual champions South Africa.
Japan Rugby Football Union (JRFU) chairman Kensuke Iwabuchi said on Wednesday that he had told governing body World Rugby that Japan wants to host the men's World Cup in 2035 and the women's event in 2037.
Future hosts recently named by World Rugby have been awarded both the men's tournament and the women's event, which takes place two years later.
Iwabuchi said the Brave Blossoms "want to be the No. 1 team in the world when we host it".
