Are Japanese playlists still maintained?

Up to about a year ago, new songs would appear in playlists like ‘New from Japan,’ but now the latest updates to these playlists are from last year, or February at best. Also the whole category’Japanese Music’ lists albums from 2023 as ‘latest releases’. 
I also noticed that before, there was a name of the editor who maintained these, now it just says Deezer Editor. Does that mean that the lady who worked on these is no longer doing so?

I would love some up to date playlists with Japanese music with their latest and greatest music.

      That is just a chart, not a playlist. It contains a lot of foreign (from Japanese perspective) music and quite often contains whole albums rather than just the best songs. I’m looking for the more curated playlists that used to be updated, like Top J-Rock, J-Pop Rising, and New From Japan.

       

      As you can see, updated 11 months ago. You can hardly call that “New”.
