The fourth-oldest living person in Japan—Ms. Yukie Takahashi (高橋雪枝) of Akiruno City, Tōkyō Prefecture, has sadly entered "limbo" at aged 113.
According to the data, as of October 1, 2026, the oldest living person in the city is a 107-year-old woman. As you all know, the last confirmed date on which Ms. Takahashi was still alive was September 16, 2026.

It is believed that she was likely the oldest living person in Tōkyō from around March 2026. Tōkyō is notorious for never announcing changes regarding its oldest resident, so I had somewhat anticipated that this might eventually happen—but it is truly sad...

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."

I’m relieved to learn that it was an error in the statistical data...! I’m so glad she’s still alive!
But I really wish Akiruno City would get its act together...
I apologize for causing such a stir, everyone.
