The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average gained 79.86 points, or 0.47 percent, from Wednesday to close at 16,899.10.
The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, added 6.12 points, or 0.45 percent, to finish at 1,353.93.
Notable gainers at the close of play comprised mining, insurance, and oil and coal product-linked stocks and the day's turnover was 1,867.3 billion yen (18.02 billion U.S. dollars).
