I am fairly sure CESA is in May. It just depends how long someone (Chris) translates everything and readies the list to release to the public.

No you're completely wrong. It was in May once last year because it was delayed from the previous summer because of Covid. The very next one was on August 29th last year.

On Installbase several Japanese speaking members had the book pretty quickly and one of them posted the stuff there very quickly. You don't need to translate everytging if 90% of the game sales didn't change at all from the previous year and it would never take that long anyways. It's just numbers and game names. This isn't like localizing a game. And it's released to the public by CESA, not a random individual on the internet.

Here's a link:

I just checked and it seems it is likely to be August 23rd this year since CESA has some event there.

They said that it's coming out in late July on their website:
