Ninjō

Human feeling or compassion (Japanese)

Ninjō in Japanese, is human feeling that complements and opposes the value of giri, or social obligation, within the Japanese worldview.

As ninjō is a culture-specific term, the validity or importance of this concept is subject to a wide range of viewpoints, inextricably tied into one's perspective on nihonjinron, which compares Japan with other cultures to establish what is unique about the country.
