Mochizuki Yuriko (Japanese: 望月百合子; 1900–2001) was a Japanese anarchist-feminist writer and activist. A leading figure in the early Japanese feminist movement, she cut her hair short and advocated for women's suffrage, but eventually split from others in the feminist movement over her political views. She joined up with other anarchist-feminists, including Takamure Itsue, in criticising both Marxist feminism and the antifeminism of male anarchists. Following the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, she and other revolutionary feminists moved to Manchukuo, fleeing political repression in Japan. There she established women's schools and criticised the chauvinism displayed by Japanese settler colonists, although she herself played her own role in the expansionism of the Empire of Japan.
