The e-Stat table 'Final Trade Statistics by Commodity and Country (Imports), 2016–2020' (Ministry of Finance Trade Statistics of Japan) lacks data for some commodities from April 2018 to December 2019, so values for this period are not shown. This is a problem in the source data; official annual totals from the Ministry of Finance differ.
