The first Europeans in Japan were Portuguese. They arrived coming from Macau (in China) were a Portuguese colony was already established in early 1530's. Some of the Portuguese arriving in Japan were sons of mixed marriages in India as well. The date of the arrival in Kyushu island is somewhere between 1540 and 1545. The aim of the Portuguese sailors was to be the ones caring out the commerce between Japan and the rest of Asia. Missionaries, mainly the Jesuits, were sent to Japan and traveled in Portuguese ships as soon as the route was established. During the period when Portugal and Spain had the same king (1580-1640) the route to Japan was still considered Portuguese and ruled by the "Estado da Índia", a branch of the Portuguese crown in India. Around 1630 both the Portuguese and the Spanish were banned from Japan because the country closed itself from the Christian nations and most foreigner contact; and only allowed Chinese, Korean and Dutch to trade in some ports.
Major challengers to Portuguese traders in East Asia included the Dutch and the English, who sought to expand their own trade networks and diminish Portuguese dominance. The Dutch established the Dutch East India Company in 1602, which aggressively competed for control over spice trade routes. Additionally, local powers, such as Japan and the Ming Dynasty in China, also posed significant challenges by regulating foreign trade and favoring certain European nations over others. These rivalries ultimately led to a decline in Portuguese influence in the region.
Japan!
Significant explorers and traders in Japan included the Portuguese, who arrived in the 1540s, introducing firearms and Christianity, and the Dutch, who established a trading post in Nagasaki in the early 17th century, becoming Japan's primary European trading partner during the Edo period. Other notable figures include the Englishman William Adams, who became an adviser to the shogunate, and the Spanish, who were involved in trade and missionary activities. These interactions significantly influenced Japanese culture and trade practices.
Most likely it would have been China, not a European nation. The Portuguese first arrived in Japan in the year 1543.
