List of Japanese supercentenarians

This page contains lists regarding Japanese supercentenarians, the oldest of whom was Kane Tanaka (1903–2022) who died at the age of 119 years, 107 days, and the oldest Japanese man ever was Jiroemon Kimura (1897–2013) who died at the age of 116 years, 54 days.

Currently, the oldest living person in Japan is Shigeko Kagawa (born 28 May 1911) aged 114 years, 172 days of Nara, and the oldest living man in Japan is Kiyotaka Mizuno (born 14 March 1914) aged 111 years, 247 days of Shizuoka.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Because there are so many supercentenarians from Japan, this 'main' list will be for supercentenarians aged 113 or older. Those aged 110, 111 and 112, which used to be featured on this page, can be found in the lists below:
