Francesca entered the list on May 22, 2025. The May 13, 2025 list was the last one with only one Italian. January 16, 2024, was the last list with a person living in Canada on the list, Mabel Mah (#18). I didn't find another name from Latvia on the lists here.

Kiyo Itō entered the list on April 30, 2025, after the death of Inah Canabarro Lucas.
Miyoko Hiroyasu entered the list on August 20, 2024, after the death of Maria Branyas Moreira.
Both entered the list after the death of WOP.
June 20, 2025, was the last list with 13,114+.
Italy has two names on the list again, after the last time on July 4, 2025.
This is the first time in the history of the list here on the site that we have only three Japanese and one native of Portugal.
The last time we had five residents in Brazil was on January 17, 2025.

For the 7 months so far this year Japan has lost seven verified persons aged 113+, whilst the combined figure for the rest of the world is only six.

Japan has lost five, 114 year olds and two 113 year olds.

This might be the first time in the last 20 years where no Japanese people were among the top 10 oldest living documented people. Really sad.

I was curious about this, and it turns out the last time the top 10 had no Japanese people was 14 December 2005, before Yone Minagawa entered the top 10 following Gladys Swetland’s death.

It’s interesting to note that Hide Ohira at 114-236, held the record of SECOND oldest Japanese person ever until as recently as 2 January 2010, when she was overtaken by (the still slightly dubious case of) Kama Chinen.

Since then the Japanese performance has been spectacular and Hide Ohira now sits at no 24.

So Japan produced very few verified 115+ cases for a long time, whist numerous others performed better in this regard.

But the 2005 date mentioned above does show the rarity of the current situation:

Japan returns to having 4 names after having lost one. The last list with 4 Japanese names was on July 28, 2025.
Last time with 12 114+: May 22, 2025. Since then, the number has always been higher.
Last list with only 3 Brazilians: October 23, 2024. Since then, it has always been higher.
Maria Paschoalina entered the next list, November 19, 2024, being the 4th Brazilian on the list.
