No evidence, in either Japanese or English, of meeting WP:N's requirements of non-trivial coverage in multiple, third-party sources. All of the sources are either trivial mentions of his longevity records or obituaries, which is not sufficient to meet the criteria. Since past precedent has established that being the oldest "X" is not sufficient in and of itself for a stand-alone article, any encyclopedic information can be (and is) included on one of Wikipedia's longevity-related lists.

 * Redirect to List of Japanese supercentenarians. If you remove the unsourced information from the main article you are left with nothing more than the sentence in this section. CommanderLinx (talk) 20:02, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of Japanese supercentenarians. Insufficient in-depth coverage to justify a self-standing article like this. --DAJF (talk) 08:32, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
