Abstract: The novel Japanese Going to the Villages, which is the Japanese writer NOGAWA Takashi’s early creative novels. It depicts the condition of the Japanese investigators cooperatives in the puppet Manchukoku, particularly their engagement with the villagers, which is estimated to demonstrate the rare intimacy distinct from the other literature by most people. The paper is grounded in the historical facts of the agricultural cooperative societies, centering on Japanese Going to the Villages, along with the other three works. Here, we redefine the collision between the reality of “Villages” and the fantasy of “Japanese”, and the underlying essence of the two nations’ nonnegotiable conflicts.

Key words: NOGAWA Takashi, Japanese Going to the Villages, agricultural cooperative society, reality, fantasy
