This is a list of significant Japanese poetry anthologies.
Starting with the Kokin Wakashū, there were 21 official anthologies, known collectively as the Nijūichidaishū (二十一代集, Collections of the Twenty-One Eras).
[1][2][3][4][5] Most waka poets had their own anthologies edited by themselves or by others.
Some of these are sources of the imperial anthologies.
