According to LongeviQuest, Ms. Sato Sakashita of Kagoshima City and the oldest person in Kagoshima Prefecture, sadly passed away at the age of 112 in mid-June 2026; 110-year-old Ms. Chiyo Ogura (b. 1915.11.10), also of Kagoshima City has subsequently become the oldest living person in the prefecture.
Ms. Sakashita was born on March 20, 1914, in Hioki City, Kagoshima Prefecture.
However, there has been no official announcement from Kagoshima Prefecture regarding the oldest resident, and since the population statistics for Kagoshima City—where she resides—are compiled at the end of January, April, and September each year, it is unclear why LongeviQuest is asserting her death so definitively.
However, if she has indeed passed away, it is very sad, as she was one of my favorite "living supercentenarians."

When the young commander of the guard declared his love for her, she rejected him simply because his frivolity startled her. "See how simple he is," she told Amaranta. "He says that he’s dying because of me, as if I were a bad case of colic."

An obituary was published on 11 July 2026 (morning edition, I don't know which newspaper). 🙂
Rest in peace, Mrs Sakashita.

No, otherwise LQ would have provided her full date of death.
