Not really inconsistent, but time dependent. In 1941 Japan had planned on fully annexing the Philippines. By 1944-1945 as the war wasn't going as planned, they planned to turn the Philippines into a puppet state, likely because that might have garnered more Filipino support.

Why just Mindanao?
If it was just Luzon I’d kind of get it because it’s not too far from Japanese Taiwan
But Mindanao? Wouldn’t it make more sense to set up a puppet there than annex it if Japan isn’t interested in taking all of the Philippines?
Oil reserves. Sort of a sticking point for them at the time.
Not that it’s relevant, of course. The ludicrous projections of annexation/puppeting were just propaganda anyway.
From what I remember it mentioned something about its Japanese minority, but like BrobDingnag said, Imperial Japanese war aims during WWII was just propaganda and belief that annexing countries in real life is just like playing a HOI4 match.
Ah, that sweet sweet petroleum that Japan desperately needed.
Speaking of ludicrous projections, what they had in mind for Australia and New Zealand wasn't a full invasion (even that was seen as too ambitious), but rather isolating and blockading them out until they surrendered. The colonial Australia Government-General was then expected to accommodate up to two million Japanese settlers after their victory. How exactly one blockades an entire continent, I'm not sure.

There were also a separate plan for Muscovy/Russia between 1574 and 1658, and sometime during Stanisław II Augustus' reign in the late 18th century.

Add that all up and you have some kind of Polish-Lithuanian-Ruthenian--Muscovite-Hungarian-Swedish Commonwealth
What's that oddly-shaped one in Liaoning and north of Beijing?
Also, Hohhot should be part of the Jin province.

A modest proposal: turn all Aboriginal lands into the 11th province
The Royal Proclamation of 1763 included a clause prohibiting British colonists from purchasing “Lands of the Indians,” so as not to commit more of the “Frauds and Abuses” that characterized colonial takeovers of Aboriginal territory. To my reading, this measure was intended to make clear to the Engl

Apparently that has to partially do with the failed Meech Lake Accord in 1987.
That is the areas that would be incorporated into the Manchu AR. Hohhot wouldn't be apart of Shanxi.
It does propose uniting the Indian Reserves, the Yukon, the North West Territories, and Nunavut as a single aboriginal-governed province, with Nunavut becoming like a regional government and Indian bands becoming like municipal governments.
I remember seeing that. I think I made a map of it somewhere.Also,

That area is almost entirely Han, though.
The Hohhot region is predominantly Jin Chinese, so it should be part of Shanxi.
