Mine Kondō (born 1 September 1910) has been the oldest person in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, since Shizu Narita’s death on March 2nd 2023. She is presumably celebrating her 113th birthday as I post this message 

On her 112th birthday in September 2022

In January 2023 at the age of 112

this report from yesterday (5th of September) lists the oldest person in Aichi Prefecture as an 112-year-old woman living in Toyota City (where Kondo lives). I would assume they had gotten the info for the oldest person a few days earlier, before she turned 113, and didn’t know she’d had her birthday since

In August 2023 aged 112, from her nursing home’s blog

They post around 25 times a month and each post has several photos, and given that I only had to scroll through half a month’s worth of posts to find another picture of her there are surely many more photos of her on here. Once she appears again in a new blog post that will be confirmation for sure that she reached her 113th birthday

Mine Kondō is now in the Japanese top ten, following the passing of Mrs. Tatsumi (and assuming Uema and the Ibaraki woman are both alive, if not she may have already been in the top ten)

On 19th August 2024, following the sad passing of Ms. Branyas Morera, Ms. Kondo became the World's 10th-oldest validated living person.

Topic moved to the Top 10 section.

Mine Kondo has climbed up the ranks quite quickly, especially this past month

Now the top ten is no longer 114+. At least her birthday is very soon

@mrcatlord So long as the bad luck does not continue and no other supercentenarians die before her birthday, we should see another period of a 114+ top 10.

There are still six other people born in 1910 after her so hopefully we get to a dozen or more by the end of the year

Mrs. Kondo has gained the titles of 8th-oldest person, the oldest Japanese person born in 1910, and third oldest Japanese person following the sad deaths of Shiroishi and Kretschmann

Adorable new video
