Despite the language barrier and cultural differences, Christian teachings were received with enthusiasm. Reliable estimates show that more than 760.000 people had been converted throughout Japan by the early seventeenth century. This mission, however, ended in the harsh persecution begun in 1614. From that year on, the Tokugawa shogunate, the Japanese government of the time, banned the Christian religion. As of 2022 there are 200 Jesuit priests based in Japan, the majority of them Japanese. They minister to parishes and run the flagship Sophia University in Tokyo and Elisabeth University of Music in Hiroshima.
