The last eruption of Mt. Fuji was in 1707-1708. The eruption released cinder, ash, "bombs", and mud but strangely no lava. The eruption destroyed 72 homes and 2 temples but there were oddly no fatalities due to the eruption.
Mt. Fuji's last recorded eruption took place in late 1707. Recent tremors have given rise to speculation that it might again erupt in the near future.

Mount Fuji's last eruption occurred in December 1707 during the Edo period, known as the Hōei eruption. The eruption primarily affected areas in the surrounding region, including the city of Fujiyoshida, and the ashfall reached as far as Edo (modern-day Tokyo). The eruption deposited significant amounts of ash, impacting agriculture and air quality in the vicinity.

Mount Fuji's Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) is classified as a VEI 5, indicating a significant explosive eruption. The last major eruption occurred in 1707 during the Hōei eruption, which produced substantial ashfall and pyroclastic flows. This level of explosiveness suggests that future eruptions could be quite impactful, warranting ongoing monitoring and research. Despite its potential hazards, Mount Fuji remains an iconic symbol of Japan and a popular destination for tourism and cultural significance.
Geologist believe Mt. Fuji was formed approximatey 600,000 years ago during the Pleistocene era. The last recorded eruption was the Hōei eruption, which started on Decemeber16, 1707 and ended about January 1, 1708.
