As of 10 August 2026, the oldest-known living Japanese person is Shigeko Kagawa, who is aged 115 years, 74 days. The oldest verified Japanese and Asian person ever is Kane Tanaka (1903–2022), who lived to the age of 119 years and 107 days, making her the second-oldest validated person ever as well.
