On 26th October 1707 there was a magnitude 8.4 earthquake hit Honshu, Japan. This was followed by several smaller earthquakes around Mt Fuji. An eruption began on 16th December 1707 on the SE flank of the volcano accompanied by pumice fall. After 6 hours the pumice fall changed to scoria fall. On the first day of the eruption, 72 houses and three Buddhist temples were destroyed in the town of Subassiri 10 km from the volcano.

There were many damages. The eruption was highly explosive, and generated mudflows. There were, many fatalities.

Little to no damage because Mt. Fuji's first eruption is estimated long before civilization in Japan.
