Japan at the time of its opening had no imperialist ambitions. The purpose of opening japan was to use its ports as coaling stations, prevent the maltreatment of us/european sailors shipwrecked there and eventually develop it as a market. It was initially a victim of the imperialist designs of other nations (though this changed over time).
