Renunciation of (Japanese) nationality in the last 5 years : 211
(Data from the Civil Bureau or the Ministry of Interior)
過去5年間の国籍喪失者数の推移 : 515
Loss of (Japanese) nationality in the last 5 years : 515

I am not sure what's the difference. I suppose that the first one is voluntary, and the 2nd forced (by taking another nationality, as Japan does not allow dual nationality).
The figures are not so high, though.
