Mount Fuji's eruptions are primarily caused by tectonic activity related to the convergence of the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This geological interaction creates pressure and leads to magma accumulation in the volcano's chamber. Additionally, the release of gas and magma during seismic events can trigger explosive eruptions. Historical eruptions, such as the last one in 1707, highlight the potential for future activity due to these ongoing tectonic processes.
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 is a stratovolcano. However, its located at an island arc, Japan. Mount Fujis platonic environment is there for an island arc.
The last eruption of Mount Pelée in Martinique was in 1932.

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.
