imprisonment with work
懲役
A punishment the Penal Code had until Act No. 67 of 2022 came into force: being held in a penal institution (刑事施設) and made to do prescribed work, for life or for a fixed term of one month to twenty years (Penal Code, former Article 12). That Act replaced it and imprisonment without work (禁錮) with imprisonment (拘禁刑) (Act No. 67 of 2022, Article 2). An act committed before then is, as a rule, still punished as the law then stood (Act No. 68 of 2022, Article 441, paragraph (1)), and a person sentenced to it is treated, for the rules on a person's qualifications, as sentenced to imprisonment for the same term (Article 443, paragraph (1)).

imprisonment without work
禁錮
A punishment the Penal Code had until Act No. 67 of 2022 came into force: being held in a penal institution (刑事施設), for life or for a fixed term of one month to twenty years, without the prescribed work that imprisonment with work (懲役) carried (Penal Code, former Articles 12 and 13). That Act replaced both with imprisonment (拘禁刑) (Act No. 67 of 2022, Article 2). An act committed before then is, as a rule, still punished as the law then stood (Act No. 68 of 2022, Article 441, paragraph (1)), and a person sentenced to it is treated, for the rules on a person's qualifications, as sentenced to imprisonment for the same term (Article 443, paragraph (1)).

special ward
特別区
A ward (区) of a metropolis (都) (Local Autonomy Act, Article 281, paragraph (1)). Today the only special wards are the 23 wards of Tokyo. A special ward is a basic local government in its own right: it does, in general, the work a city, town or village (市町村) does elsewhere, apart from what the metropolis does across all the wards as one (Article 281-2, paragraph (2)). Where a law or order gives a city (市) work to do, its provisions on that work also apply to a special ward, for the work the ward does (Article 281, paragraph (2), and Article 283, paragraph (2)); a Cabinet Order (政令) can make special rules where they cannot apply as they stand (Article 283, paragraph (3)).
