Sadly from what I can tell Shinno Shutō the oldest living man in Miyagi prefecture might be in limbo as when I went through his cities statistics from which were released on the 2nd there was no man aged 110 and older which Shinno should be at this point however I am very amateur at this so hopefully I made a mistake along the way.

^I've come to believe his last name is actually 'Sakuma'. Thanks, Zavier. 🙂

Also Takeshi Katō was born sometime after 1 April 1918 rather than 17 September 1917, there is not any recent confirmation yet though

Unfortunately, it does seem that way, provided that these are indeed the demographics for late August (I can't find a date stamp in the Excel file itself). Miyagi prefecture has a tendency not to report the death of its oldest residents, so Mr Shutō is indeed on my limbo radar. However, I'll await until we receive confirmation from a native Japanese speaker. @straycat6368?

Ooh, great, that narrows down his DOB by a considerable range.

As far as I know, there is no information indicating that he has passed away; however, looking at this data, it does unfortunately appear that he is in a state of "limbo." I tried to find information about him—checking everything from obituary notices to city expenditure records—but came up empty-handed. I apologize for not being of more help. However, we should be able to find out whether he is still alive sometime this week.

 

^ No need to apologise, Straycat. I'm just happy the rest of us hasn't missed anything. 🙂
