There were several factors: 1. Japan's need to expand their empire to gain needed raw materials for war (oil, rubber, etc.). 2. Japan's spiritual belief of superiority and their absolute loyalty to the emperor, who did not stop his military from their aggression. 3. Japan had a history of military victories against nations far bigger than theirs - Russia in 1904 and China in the 1930s. There are more reasons, but this should give you a quick overview.
